Plans coming together

Friday 14th November 2008 will be a day I'm not likely to forget for a long time. I will need to invest in a good warm hat as my head will be pretty cold I can tell you. I contacted Colin James Salon in the town and its booked for 1pm on the 14th, I've notified the local paper and there will be a reporter and a photographer there and I'm hoping to raise a significant amount of money. I managed to get quite a few people to sponsor me at Hecklegirth Primary today, so my son will hate me likely come tomorrow. But this is something I want to do and I wouldnt normally have the guts to do it any other time.

I did feel a tad foolish this morning walking through the school playground thinking - oh my god what have I set myself up for. But I'd notified FaceBook, so I could hardly back down. My friend Pauline refused to sponsor me, but she's in mourning for David Tennant, who will shortly become the former Doctor Who. I'm a little more chipper, because I know he and Russell will get together again sometime and make us all smile on the telly again. I do hope I get to meet him face to face, both him and Russell. That would make my day, it really would.

So I now have a focus, something to keep me going despite being unable to go to college this morning. I now have something other than coursework and the start of my new story to attend to. I'm worried to use Microsoft Word because now everything reads .doc and all the stuff on my memory stick doesn't and I don't want to lose anymore work.

So tomorrow morning I go to school with the sponsor form and ask if all the staff will sponsor me and then I'll put it up in the staff room and see if anyone there will sponsor me. But I'll leave them to look at that and collect it when the form is filled in. I sure hope I get loads of people filling it in, as I'll be looking to collect on it as soon as I can.

So with a sore tongue because I bit into that when I ate toast this afternoon I will take myself off to bed in a moment, still not getting used to the time knocking back an hour so it's really not 11pm but 10pm. Doh!

Off to the Uni forum before playing a few games of FreeCell before bed time.
