Ahh, I've not appreciated weekends much before. Today I spent in watching the accumulated programmes recorded on tape (mostly Law&Order and CSI) though discovered my mother has recorded over the CSI from Tuesday which was a bit upsetting. I was supposed to be revising, because my physics exam is tomorrow, but I just wanted to relax. I did manage to do some, but probably not enough, but then, considering I haven't been doing well on the course itself its probably a bit late to make up lost time now. In any case it doesn't really matter because I have an unconditional offer from university. So I'll do my best, and hope I remember more than I think I do come the exam, but otherwise not worry too much.

About four o'clock I got bored and decided to go to the pub for a while. I read "Dark Flight Down" (yes, I know its technically a children's story, but it is quite good really) and ate ice cream and drank coke. So it was fun.

Then I came home and ate melon. And discovered that my parents had been to Marks & Spencer when they were out and bought me a new shirt for work. Also a pair of black trousers which I am very impressed with, though they are a little "swishy", still they are black and respectable enough for work and...they have pockets. Its almost impossible to find pockets on women's trousers! They also got me a pair of shoes but unfortunately they seem a little tight - though this may be because of the truly enormous, weeping blister on my foot.

However, I have some Very Good News Indeed. I was only able to buy those three-quarter length sleeved shirts for work, and was rather worried because the scars that I have are mostly on my forearm and some of them won't go off to white but stay raised and red. So I was worried that people would comment/be disgusted/think I was a total loony. However no one has given me so much as a funny look, neither the other staff nor the customers, because I cannot prevent my forearms from showing when I am lifting things or giving things to them at the tables, so maybe they really aren't so obvious as I thought they were. So w00t!
