Mummy said: "Don't go to school"

It's been a little while since my last attempt at blogging on here. I've been sort of caught up in life, well more like laziness has taken over again. BUT I'm fighting back! There's a little note on my desktop which tells me to write two blogs a week... minimum. So this is number one. (By the way, don't any of you try to hold me to doing the twice-weekly blogs, if I don't feel like doing something I don't tend to do it - the Taurean in me!)

Okay, so I've been a bit cheeky and got around the whole two blogs a week by having one blog which is about what I will be doing :-/ Oh dear! But really everybody should be quite proud that I've bypassed my laziness and even been able to sit here and write one about bypassing my laziness...
This new found chic, sleek me - like Daffy Duck - is down to some conversations I've had with friends over the weekend. I was bemoaning about my existence/life etc as usual. The sad thing is that this wasn't something they were hearing for the first time. They've pretty much been hearing it on and off for the past year-and-a-half (poor sods!). Though it does have to be said moaning and being melodramatic about a situation has been pretty much my thinking since the first day I was supposed to go to school, only to wake up and say to my mum: "No, please don't send me to school. I don't feel well". And my mum being my mum, despite not being educated to a "high" standard used her classic reverse psychology on me, which was to say: "Okay, don't go. Stay in bed. You'll fall behind then".

Instantly I would get my chubby cheeks out of bed, still with a miserable face anyhow. Pretty much like that little picture of me on the right. That's the little drama that we played all the way through to even college pretty much.

But now I'm 25 years old, and it's pretty hard to keep doing that - I've finally cottoned onto the little game. And Mum's weary of her job too so we both just wish we'd have a duvet day. I think they only thing that ever stops either of us is the innate part of our personality which doesn't like to let anyone down, or be seen to be liars.

So in a way the whole idea of this blog starts with Mum's reverse psychological tactics. We did it for long enough, so I must be able to carry on for a while!

Until next time. daffaduck.blogspot.com
