Gas Issues

This is the most boring week EVER.. boring but awfully busy too! I basically am invigilating for hours and hours on end... it's insanely boring... although lately I've taken to memorizing a poem per invigilation. Today I memorized He Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven by Yeats. Something to do I suppose...

The other thing that is complicating this procedure is that things are not well in my tummy... things have not been well for 4 days... this is not healthy. However, the only time that I'm fully aware of my discomfort is whilst invigilating. There is nothing worse than walking up and down aisles making sure students aren't cheating and that they are on task and then being hit with a violent wave of paralyzing gas pain. You know the kind where your whole body flinches and you can't breath for a minute.. yep.. that's me!

My other gas issue is the fact that my gas stove is lacking gas (at least one of us has it) and in order to get another tank I am supposed to look for the man in the blue truck. I kid you not, that is what it says to do in the manual. Apparently he drives around the neighbourhood with a truck of gas... the man in the blue truck. The problem is that I'm not at home all day to watch for him, so I put my lovely maid on it. Told her to find the man in the blue truck, buy the gas and then hook it up.

If this does not go well...it could very well be my last night on earth...
