have you seen the Simpson's episode with Marge's fear of flying? She gets on the plane and ends up running up and down the centre aisle going letmeoffletmeoffletmeoffletmeoffletmeoff... and then Homer makes the comforting remark of the century "It's ok, honey. We'll just wait for the killer bees to come to us." :) lol... well that's kind of how I feel today, it's a Stop The Bus, I Want To Get Off day.

Just stressed about tomorrow, I think. My stomach is so sore... it feels like I've got a stitch from drinking ice water before running on a hot day. I will be glad when the assessment is over, hopefully I will then have a better idea of what to expect from the service and what my next couple of months is likely to look like. I would really like to come up to Wellington for a short break. I was talking to David the other day and he was keen on the idea as well, so once I know what the immediate future is likely to hold I can plan on that. It would be so good to see everyone again, I miss you all lots!

It seems very telling to me that my ex wants to help me out to the point of buying me plane tickets to relieve my homesickness, and yet my parents act like complete cretins. The situation seems totally bizarre until you meet the people involved, and then it makes perfect sense. Dave is fundamentally a nice person, and my parents are fundamentally screwed.

I have read 41 library books in July. That's quite a few, even for me. 19 of them were fiction, so for the first time ever, I think, I have read more non-fiction than fiction books in a month purely for enjoyment. I've learnt a lot, that's for sure. Even if I count non-library books, I think it would still hold the statistic.

I will try to post again tomorrow after I see the eating disorders team... Thank you so much for all your supportive posts yesterday, guys, they made me cry but in a good way. It is just so nice to feel less alone in this, to know that I have friends out there who care about me and support me. *hug*
