Sorry, Mistress.

I know, I know, I missed an update. In my defense, I got home at 11 and was greeted by a mildly buzzed you, and we sat and talked on Skype for a few hours. However, I will tell you about my day yesterday.
So, Dad turns up at about 11:30 ish, I wasn't ready as I'd hoped to be, because I was talking to you. Well, that sounds awful, I did enjoy the catch up, it's not often we talk. We turned up at Uncle's at 12 ish, talked for a bit, played with your new Fischer Price toy. Although, I will admit, it is very nice, bigger than I expected. An hour or so later we leave, get down there for 1/2 2. No cellphone reception. Typical. Oh well, found out this money that I didn't have any credit anyway.
So we sit down, have the catch up, they haven't seen me in at least 2 years, so I got the Spanish Inquisition. First one out of the gate was (In front of my over protective father and my Uncle) "So, where's the boyfriend?" I cringed on the inside. Not only do I not have one, but as a rule, the circumstances under which I have them is, well, less socially acceptable.
My father gave me a firm stare, as in, YOUMUSTSTAYVIRGINFOREVER. And I told them the saga of me being single, and how boring I knew it was. Sigh. I might just hire someone out next year, it'll make that conversation a lot less... pitying and pathetic.
So eventually more people turned up, no one I knew... except their daughter who I haven't really spoken to since I was a kid. And they all asked me what I did. Gosh, that question always saddens me a little, I hate looking old. Well, not old old, but older. I told them I started University in 4 weeks today, and the next 20 minutes was spent explaining the degree and my career intentions.
As the night went on, i consumed a full bottle of wine, felt nothing, and the conversation quality slowly depleted. As it does when normal people drink. I'm a freak of nature with my booze, I've accepted it. Lets move on.
So we left at 10, and the conversation home was... interesting. My Uncle was pretty gone. We got stopped by the cops. But nothing happened.
But now I'm leaving to go see you, because, I haven't seen you since the LAN and it's depressing. I missed you kids while you were in Nippon.

Until next time <3
