Alyssa's ramblings...

Gold class menu: try the caramel sundae.

Man, that was scary. I was about to cross the road to go to the petrol station (to get an iced coffee), when a lady driving past beeped at me, and pulled over next to me. I thought she was angry (why else would someone beep at you {unless they know you, which she certainly didn’t}?), but I didn’t know why… because I was at the side of the road waiting to cross, perhaps? Who knows. But she motioned for me to come over, and I did, all the while thinking “She’s going to yell at me!” Turns out, she just wanted to know the way to the highway. Although I’m not very good at giving directions (my explanations sound confusing, even to me), I did my best. Hopefully she gets there okay!

I so want to go home. I’m bored bored bored. One hour and 13 minutes to go…

You know those phone calls I was talking about in an earlier post, the ‘can I speak to the business owner’ ones? I’ve had about 6 or 7 of them today! How annoying. But each time, I say “He’s not available at the moment, can I get him to call you back?” and they say “No”, and then hang up. Occasionally they’ll go into a bit of a spiel, but I’m really trying to get the courage to do what my sister does. After about .05 seconds of them talking, she says “Not interested” and hangs up. At the moment, I just listen until they stop, and try to get my point across that I’m not interested, but without sounding harsh. I’m a wuss!

We got tickets to see Star Wars Episode 3 in Gold Class! Ooooh, luxurious. My husband and I, my older brother and his fiancé, and my younger brother and his girlfriend are going on the evening of Tuesday 24th May. Yay! This is the one where he turns evil. It will be interesting to see such dramatic character development. Wow, I sound all knowledgeable. Joy.
