I have a new psych, and she's really cool. She is very interested in my childhood, though, and wants Mum and I to do this questionaire and to see my school reports, and if they are - something, I don't know - then she wants me to go get isotopes shot into my blood and have my brain blood-flow scanned. Concentrating and at rest. I'm kinda freaked out about it, though. I hope I'm not ar-tarded.
I'm so proud of my niece Emmy. She's been writing a lot lately, and she's already done her first complete story. 28 chapters. It's a really interesting concept and, other than the usual mistakes a fourteen year old will make when writing (grammar, punctuation, needless details in some scenes, teenage preoccupations) it's a pretty solid story set in an interesting place (Busselton here in WA). I'm reading her story and giving it the once over with editing to help her improve. There were some really brilliant lines in it that I would never have thought of at her age, ("You are my ocean") and I gushed at her today on the phone. Seriously, I have awesome nieces and nephews. Great kids all. I can't wait to have my own kid one day and add to their number.
I bought more nail polish. Dry blood colour. Dark and sexy. :D
