My faith in little old ladies has been shaken. I have been doing some volunteer work with my mum at a retirement village/ nursing home and we took two ladies out for lunch today and Olive started making fun of Jill and calling her ugly and that she sticks out her tongue like a baby (she sticks her tongue out because she had a stroke and can't help it) and after taunting her for a while Jill started crying and saying "I'm not a baby, I'm not a baby" after that she looked Olive straight in the eye and said "If you call me a baby again I'll knock your teeth out". By this stage I didn't have a clue what to do so I was trying to comfort Jill and tell her I thought she was pretty while telling Olive it isn't nice to insult people, it was all a bit too traumatic for my liking.
When Jill left I gave her a cuddle and told her I hoped she cheered up. I felt so sad for her but extremely shocked that a little old lady would threaten someone with physical violence. I just didn't think that they would do that, I don't know why I had that thought in my head I mean they are people if someone teased me I'd fight back as well but just because they were old I assumed that they would all get along and knit and talk about the grand kiddies. Maybe I should stop making assumptions because lets face it they don't help anyone.
Apart from my experiences this morning I've had a pretty good weekend. I have a job interview for a newsagency on friday which I hope to get. Friday I met Fliss and Nat in the city and had a good time shopping and watching tv at David Jones then in the afternoon I met Jennifer and Tim and we headed to the moon and had chips and giggles which was pleasant, after dinner I headed to Blakes and had some wine then headed to Danielles party, had McDonalds and headed to amplifier where I danced the night away until 5am and I wasn't grumpy at all which rarely happens I don't know I was just feeling really good I don't have an specific reason for it I think it was just a mixture of having a good time throughout the day and nothing bad happening during the night.
Maybe things really are looking up this time. Fingers crossed.
I'm meeting Lee. He's going to kick my behind at an eating contest. I should have learnt by now you don't beat Lee at these things it really is his area of expertise.
