NOT a date

So when is a date not a date?
According to my daughter [ who is out as we speak on her very own 'not' a date ] its when it happens in daylight.

This seems to be important. ok, and No, i don't get it either.

I don't ask you to understand where she's coming from, but the whole daytime thing seems absolutely pivotal.

Of course right now its pitch black outside aand she's still out with her 'not' date :D

She rang me...well, alright, I rang her [ but only because this not-date was only supposed to be for a coffee after school and it was already 7pm and i didn't know if i could go out with Dave to watch one of our friends play her singles match in a pool tournament]
I was NOT checking up on her.

*cough*mainly*cough*

And said phone call left me as confused as ever.

She was still out with him, but they were both on their way up to see one of Em's best friends [ who happens to know the not-date ]
Not the best friend who thinks it kind of stalkerish for him to have remembered her [ that is my daughters ] name after, let me think....7-9 years, but the one who thinks he's ok.
Lucky that.

:D

Sooooo.....
Either she's had fun, likes him, and he's dropping her off at Kezia's so that she can go over in great detail everything that has taken place on this not-date...
or...
oh heck.
There are far too many possibilities.

I just hope she's had fun.
And gets home before I fall asleep so she can tell me how it went!

Nosy!
Me!!
Nah!!!
:D

Showgirls

I guess it's not completely unexpected to see a programme celebrating Kylie's return to the stage with her showgirld tour, but it's appropriate for me to find it while I'm flicking through the TV channels on the evening after I've taken emma up to the V&A to see it.

Normally i would have passed on by , but it's interesting to see the costumes as they were intended, with the right lighting etc.

We had a good day out.
Sushi, Kylie and Harrods.
Although it was slightly marred by being locked in to the V&A durign a security alert.
We guessed that something had been taken , as it included bag searches before anyone was allowed to leave and a complete shut down of all exits.

I didn't get over to Fopps to see the John Butler Trio who were doing a preview gig , but i was just too tired.

It seems like recently I'm having more and more trouble trying not to fall asleep at some incredibly early hour.

And now I'm waiting for Dave to get home from football and trying hard to stay awake.
I don't think I'm winning :D
