Feb. 9th, 2013 09:16 pmI got into the library today to find I was set to go on the Mobile, which was nice. We had some tasks to do regarding stock-checking so I was relatively busy, even with only three regulars on the route. I split my lemon muffin from greggs with the driver which was very nice, and turned out to have lemon curd inside! Yum.
This afternoon I met up with my cousin Zog, and we had sandwiches and tea (well she had juice, as her preganancy is putting her off tea) and cake and chatted. I've wanted to meet up with her for a while now because I just don't get chance to see her much, considering that before she hit her awkward teenage years we were very close. We babbled about all sorts- they used to say I had the gift of the gab but I come by it honestly, Zog could talk for England. About the baby and The Family in those old mafia capital letters it sometimes needs to be referred to with, and stories we'd been told, plans etc. It was good. Did take us about four hours though! Haha. Time well spent, thoguh, I think, despite looming University tasks and books and suchlike. The older I get the more The Family frustrates me, but also the more determined I am that we stay "The Family". I don't want to look up one day and wave to someone across the street realising that years have gone by since we last spoke. There is a man who lives in the next street and says hello every morning as I'm on my way to work, I believe he married one of my Nanny's...cousins(?) not sure, but despite the fact we always say hello and pass the time, he is branched to the Family but he isn't in it, in this sort of absorbing sphere of life that we have, and I don't want to fall out of by my own sheer laziness!
