Ok, so I didn't make fudge tonight. I do have a good reason though!
This afternoon I discovered that I am unlikely to ever be called Captain Hero Jenni, if in fact there was any danger of that happening, it is all over now.
A little girl had an accident in the library this afternoon and there was screaming and a freaked out mother and I had to call the ambulance and deal with the very helpful call centre staff ("is the blood spurting or seeping?") and then I had to freak out while the ambulance took its sweet time getting there and then deal the fact that after the ambulance staff had taken the mother and both daughters that I had no idea what the names of any of them were, which we needed to make an accident report.
I'd been so panicked trying to help (and forgetting all my first aid training) that I hadn't even asked.
Eventually after I'd calmed somewhat I remembered that they had a fairy new looking Thomas the Tank Engine book issued and I tracked the name down from that. I felt a little better after that but I think I must have been in shock for about the next hour as I felt quite nauseous and I got very exhausted. I had been doing fine today and then it all drained away.
So, tonight's an early night following a bath with new Lushy goodness from Debz and Matt. (Thanks guys!)
Russian fudge tomorrow night.
Oh and a quick plug, I'm thinking of starting some kind of rpg on lj. Read all about it: clicky.
