I’m beginning to wonder if I accidentally transferred some
of the famously over-used and inaccurate irritability that supposedly comes
with girls getting their period from Rowen when I healed her yesterday. I’m getting more annoyed with the tween games
that have been going on pretty much since we put our study group together last
week; and it’s distracting and dumb.
Before I get to the prime example for tonight, let’s recap
the rest of the day. I didn’t mention it
yesterday in my report, but we had rain off and on yesterday, and that trend
continued today. That meant starting the
day with Tai Chi indoors, and compared to yesterday; the rest of the morning at
home was quiet. It was all work, all day
at school. We wrote our English exam in
the morning; studied for Science during the break between exams; and then wrote
the Science exam.
The tweeird started at Tim’s house with our after-school
study group. We have three exams
tomorrow – Geography, Social Studies, and Art; yet Nora and Vanessa advised us
that we were only working together until five-thirty. We were also split up again even though we
hadn’t done that the last time we’d worked at Tim’s house. Since we had so little time to work, Rowen
and I ended up helping the guys and girls at our table with Geography – the
subject they’d all decided to study while they had us there to help them.
Five-thirty rolled around way too soon, and I wasn’t the
only one who wasn’t happy; but that wasn’t even for me – it’s not like I needed
another few hours to be ready for those exams.
Since we were done earlier than expected, Rowen went over to the
computer store to help out there until her parents were ready to go home; and I
stopped in too for a few minutes before going on to my house. Mom and Dad already had dinner under control,
so I mostly just entertained them and did a tiny bit of venting about all
things tweeird and annoying.
We had dinner, I helped with the cleanup, and then we all
went over to the ball park for Mom and Dad’s practice. There’d been a break in the rain, and though
the grass was wet; their coach had decided to try and get the practice in
because their first game was just a week and a half away. Rowen came over after she’d finished having
dinner at home; and brought the news that the reason our study group had been
cut short was because Tim had invited Nora, Michael, and Vanessa to stay for
dinner and a evening study session for four.
Rowen thinks that they should have done that last night; since two or
three of them seem to be more interested in studying biology; and that would
have at least helped them a little with our Science exam. We do have Social Studies tomorrow, though,
so maybe they’ll at least manage to be ready for that.
I’d brought a towel along in the stroller so I could dry off
at least a couple of toddler swings and a slide or two if needed; and Rowen and
I spent most of our time with Ethan, Ehlana, and Naomi at the playground. When it looked like we were going to get some
more rain before the practice was over; we got the parental approval to take
the twins – and Naomi – home early; so we were indoors and dry when the rain
did start falling again.
The parents weren’t quite so lucky, and they were a bit on
the damp side by the time they got home too.
Philip had come back with Mom and Dad; and he and Naomi got a ride home
from Dad while Mom went upstairs to have a shower and get changed. Rowen stayed and helped me entertain Ethan
and Ehlana in the lounge until Mom was finished; and then went home too when we
got the next little break in the rain.
Mom did another lesson with me tonight after Ethan and
Ehlana went to bed, but I skipped the Jacuzzi time tonight. Instead of doing that, I played my keyboard
for nearly an hour before getting changed and into bed with Mandy. The music helped me to wind down my annoyance
level a few notches, but I’m still feeling out of sorts; and should probably
just get some sleep. There really isn’t
anything else to report anyway, so...
...until next time, this is Magi Master Cassie Proctor;
logging out!
