29th March 2008

I was up till 5 this morning talking to Maddy. She was drunk and had came home upset over an arguement she had with her friend, so I did my best to calm her down. I managed to get her number that way, because I said if she ever needs to talk to someone, she can phone me, but I had no ulterior motive. It was just something that occured to me afterwards.

I woke up at 8, hoping to get ready, finish packing, and do my washing up, as I had burgers last night and the baking tray was greasy. I was too tired however, so I ended up having another 30 minutes in bed, and leaving Claire to clean it up. It's vindictive and petty, but I had to clean her baking tray when she left it for a week after having fish.

I got up and showered, and everything, and then packed away all the things I didn't pack last night. My dirty clothes, my toiletries and my laptop. I didn't realise I had so many dirty clothes... Or clothes in general as it came out as 3 black bin bags full.

Martin, my step-Dad came to pick me up, loaded up the car and we set off. We get on now as I don't live at home anymore. However, the harmony only lasts as long as a week, before we get up each other's noses again. We talked about general things, like our experiences being drunk, and their holiday they had in Scotland last week. We got back to Redcar and I walked into the lounge.

Our dog, Maxi, was being shaved. He was on a big silver table and tied to it so he wouldn't go anyway. I have never seen him so still as just then. My Mother told me how they saw a rat hanging on the bird feeders. I mentioned we should have let Maxi try to find it, but after thinking about it, the rat is probably bigger than Maxi.

After that, the day just went normal. I sat and chatted for a bit, and ate some of my Easter egg. Then I went upstairs and started watching TV and did that for the rest of the day. Then my parents went out, as they are staying at my step-Dad's sister's house. I did some washing and then I phoned my friend Claire from Northern Ireland. That was pretty cool, as I met her on the internet and have known her for just over a year, yet this was the first time I've spoken to her.

After that, I just sat on the internet, continued watching 'Teachers' hoping that Maddy would come online. She goes back home on Monday and doesn't have the internet there, so I have a limited time with her.

Tomorrow is going to be my last lazy day, until I start doing work.
