Yesterday, just as I was leaving to get Corey my dad phoned. The answer machine clicked on and I was going to leave it but he sounded off, like when you've something you have to say but don't want to. So I phoned him back thinking that something bad had happened. He sort of hesitated for a few seconds then asked if mam was okay as he'd heard she'd died. I was boggled I tell you and my mind sped through things like, has she died and they've got in touch with her ex instead of me. But really that was unlikely, especially when I'd only been talking to her a few hours earlier. So I told him no, she was fine and found out there's a rumour going around town that she'd died two weeks ago, which dad found out when someone came to him to offer his condolences. I tell you, people make big deals out of nothing around here.

Then when I went for Corey I waited in my usual place in the church yard for him. It's literally a minutes walk from the school so I wait there so he can have his bit of independence coming home. I was happily listening to music when this guy came over looking all concerned asking if I was okay as I was sitting on the wall, and man, you know I was feeling good until he said that. I must be projecting an image of imminent death or something.

Talking of which, James was sent home from work earlier. He's been pretty sick for a while but had to go in but today they sent him home, so now he's lying around like a dead dog. In fact everyone around here but Corey and I seem to be sick. You don't want to know the conversation James and Kay were having, if I hadn't been so hungry they would have put me right off my dinner.

Thinking of James, he watches a show called Dog the Bounty Hunter, in fact we all do, it's a pretty cool show if you don't mind things like that. James loves Dog and today wondered if Dog had a website. Of course he does, I mean it's Dog the bounty hunter, he has to have a website. You can even get in contact with him if you have some criminal that needs running down or official things like that. You can also send away for a signed picture and e mail Dog. So guess what I ended up doing? Yes, that's right, I fan mailed Dog the Bounty Hunter. James even insisted we put our address on the mail, you know, just in case Dog wanted to mail us back. At least I I know what to get him for his birthday now *g*

WTF!

Sis? Why don't you write a book of your life? Seriously, with everything that happens to you all the time? You'd have one hell of story here.

It boggles the mind *blink*

Hee! I adore Dog The Bounty Hunter! I just quit talking about it because no one else seemed to be interested.

I enjoy the show when I watch it with him, so you should talk about him again. I'll pass your comments onto James and you can have a Dog talk session :)

You'd think things like that would stay in people's mind and they'd tell you. I guess not though.

Dog the Bounty Hunter! My mom and I watch that sometimes. I have a bit of an inexplicable crush on his (third) son Leland. *g*

Also, that is a bizarre rumour, and I'm glad it isn't true. ::hugs::

...dog the bounty hunter...why does that sound so resoundingly wrong? heh. But I hope James feels better.

by the way, I wrote your Justin wank fic (http://www.livejournal.com/users/forceofisis/140804.html#cutid1) While you were gone. *smooch*
