Where have I been?

You know, I was just typing out a whole thing about how my doctors appointment went yesterday... but what's the point in moaning? Basically I got there early for my appointment but was seen 25 minutes late, and it sucked. That's the basic story. And I was seen late because the doctor had an emergency to attend to before coming into her office... so there isn't even a good reason to complain. I really do need to chill out more.

Anyway - it's Friday at last. The new edition of Q Magazine is out, so I will be getting that. Jake has a match tomorrow (not training). My in-laws are staying with us for the weekend. And Jake has his first big performance on Sunday with his stage school thing he does. In a proper theater and everything. No football (well, an international pointless friendly, so it doesn't count) and no RBS Six Nations (Ireland won it, for those that don't know) so a rather sport free weekend.

That is all.

Update: A question to the intelligent amongst you. What does [sic] mean when next to a word? For example: "...just an excuse for Johnathan [sic] to keep us from scouting other labels."

... apart from the first Grand Prix of the season.... (!)

russ - Snore! I find Grand Prix very boring, apart from the start... or when it pours down. Otherwise, it's dull dull dull. Which is a problem, as Em likes watching them!

Simon said...

No, please say, I need to know! It wasn't a test, it was an honest question. Yes, I could use google etc. but I thought this way more fun

Sic ... As originally reported / quoted

Because presumably in that quote the spelling of Jonathan is wrong and the editor is drawing your attention to it

Seeing as other intelligent beings have advised you on the meaning of "sic" all I can say is never ever be early for the doctor!!! I got to witness the offspring of the pondlife of South Oxhey running amok in the waiting room the other day - not fun!
