Meh

Can't sleep....I have to be up in 3 hours and 36 minutes (0454 according to my laptop time) Good Times!!!!

I was reading 'Keeping Faith' by Jodi Picoult and came across something I never knew. The word passion comes from the Latin passio which means to suffer. Sounds about right to me! I'd love to meet someone who's had passion and not had to suffer any kind of pain because of it, pretty sure I'd be more likely to win the lottery if I'm honest.

Argh!! Why am I not tired...this is getting beyond a joke.

In fact in an attempt to bore myself to sleep, I'm gonna fill in one of those random quizzes that you find doing the rounds on facebook/myspace...

So my driving test. Haha, it'll certainly be one to tell the kids (if I have any). I'd already failed my test once for speeding so we're on test number two...my instructor came to pick me up as usual and we headed on the normal route to the test centre. About 2 minutes from my house is a ball ache of a roundabout and I was a tad too close to the curb approaching the roundabout...so close in fact I bent the wheel arch when I hit it. We park up in the car park of Sainsbury's, it's pissing it down and Mark is trying to change the tyre but he only has a space saver one so he drives foot down to the nearest Kwik Fit while I'm sat in the passenger seat having a meltdown.

It all turned out ok in the end because we made it to the test centre with time for me to very quickly practice reverse parking but to this day I have no idea how I passed my test...and with only 6 minors unlike someone I could mention who got 8.

Well it's 0549 and I'm still not tired...fuck fuckity fuckfuckfuck. I guess it's good in a way cos I'll be so tired I'll sleep on the coach to London but I'll be knackered for my interview. Oh well...
