Homeward bound

Unfortunately I wont be until tuesday next week. I've been au-pairing for 3 days now and it's going adequatly smooth, well the "job" is goin great but u know me, there's no place like home. First night was awful, as it usually is when I go away, what with the travel exhaustion and the not sleeping in my own bed and not kissing mommy goodnight (yup, my cords r still attached), I felt miserable all around. Thank GOD for the telephone, it eased the "pain" a little, then I put on my music and read my Vanity Fair (glossy magazine, a must-indulge-when-travelling purchase) to eventually sleep a fairly uninterrupted slumber. Next day I was a little more of my perky self, especially cause I got to watch "Lost" (my wednesday TV show), it gave a little taste of my routine back home. I have to say the little boys are really sweet and they actually listen to me, every night so far I've managed to get them ready for bed and in it by 20.30, which according to the Dad is not easy to do. Mayb they'll b more difficult the more they know me, crossing-fingers. So now there's only what, 4 days, I'll b home in no time. Can't wait to get back and plan my mom's b'day. Me & my bro r a great team for that, it gets harder every year though cause we always want to outdo the last year. It's gonna b a good one, oooo can't wait.
I guess thats all, just remembered, Safin didn't go futher than the 3rd round in Indian Wells, I'm not suprised but sad. Should've been "present" during his match.
S'all folks!!!

hi again!!!

i wanna hear all about your mummy adventure! u gotta let me know when u get home so that i can give you a call!

I understand fully that you dont wanna do the aupair thing more. i guess it is difficult to have to move from one extreme to another just like that. but just for the record, i know you can do it if you want to, for longer i mean, maybe after you have worked with other stuff you will wanna try it out again. or once your desire to get AWAY from home gets soooo strong that you just cant stand it any longer, but lucky mum that your cords are still attached. Mine have gotten sooo stretched over the past year that it is incredible that they are still intact, but they are!!

later, Encore
