Silly me...! On Monday morning my phone started ringing - it was about ten am. It woke me up. I looked at it blankly - the caller had withheld the number, and answered it. (I am NOT a morning person, BTW.) 'Hello?' There was silence down the phone. 'FINE THEN!' I shouted, and put the phone down. (Told you so .) Of course, now I couldn't get back to sleep, so I decided to watch Freinds (again). At about eleven, I went downstairs (Mum and Lee were both at work) and began to make toast, when the house phone rang. I answered it. 'Hello, is that Emma?' 'Yes...?' I replied. 'Well hi Emma. It's Miss Sharpe from school here.' I was thinking, uh-oh... and also, wah? 'Oh hi Miss!' 'I'm just calling to see why you're not in school today.' WHAT KIND OF PERSON FORGETS TO GO TO SCHOOL? I thought that we were still on half term holidays! Our school is reallky awkward, and usually we have a week and a day off. Silly arse here just PRESUMED that we had a week and a day off. So I think I've topped everyone here on blondeness. I will wear my dunce hat with pride.
me, too. I would have been so mortified... it's kind of like the alarm not going off and being late. very late.
I hope you didn't type that out right after the call. The closest I've come to is wearing my PJ's to school... at least the top half. I must be gotten side-tracked while changing, and I didn't realize it until I got to school and unzipped my jacket. Luckily it was a normal shirt I made into a PJ, otherwise it would have been much much worse.
The teachers at my school never bought the "I was late this morning because I got abducted by aliens" excuse. *le sigh*
Oh, well. It's something to talk about in years to come, I guess. Or something for the receptionists to snigger about behind my back.
I woke up at 7:30 on Tuesday morning, and my GT Art class starts at 7:35... I was like half an hour late, and I ended up not going and just waiting for school to start. Whoopsy!
