Just had a hectic evening – went to see a friend’s band called Violent Playground at the Town Hall. It’s not really my type of music, but it was very good. While I was there, I bumped into some old workmates Nads (Nadine) and Milly (Melissa). I was really glad to see them ’cause we used to have so much fun together before I got fired and lost contact with them. Nads’ 19th birthday is coming up soon so I’d like to get her something if we can get some money together.

Tomorrow, P is working late morning/early afternoon and I’m doing a late shift at 9pm. This is going to be my first proper shift without someone hovering over me in case I need help gulp, so wish me luck. Then I have to do a 9 hour shift the following day from midnight to 9am – that’s gonna be hard work!

I took a somewhat distressing call at work yesterday. A 15 year old called in to say that his stepmum had been “touching” him. We had been trained on what to do in these circumstances, but it was still a bit of a shock to hear it. Apparantly I handled it really well and did exactly the right thing. It was passed to one of the nurses and I don’t know what happened from there, but he will be put on the child protection list and will be able to get some help. I hope he’s OK.

Anyway, don’t want to end on a sad note. We’ve been taping the Big Brother finale while we were out and it should be finished in a minute. I’m looking forward to seeing if Cameron wins. Fingers crossed!

Current Mood: Tired, bit tipsy.
