My sister, who's doing year 12 this year, has gone through a pretty tough few years, but now it seems that she is just pissing away her education. She has to take medication that reduces anxiety but apparently it makes her jittery as well, meaning she stays up a bit later. I suggested that she should go to sleep about an hour ago, because she'd be tired in the morning and she then told me to "piss off", and that "mum is okay with her playing on her phone and watching tv shows" (which make sleep harder to come by due to the type of light that these devices produce). This is an obvious lie, it's one thing to read a book but mum wouldn't cop that at 10 or 11 at night (she's always neen strict, and it's done me a lot of good). It's incredibly irritating. I love her dearly but she can be quite ignorant and rude sometimes and it makes me angry. She needs to get a grip before things spiral out of control.

One of our many computer tech types may be able to assist you during daylight hours. Try sending giantroo a PM.

I typed up a very long email to my bank manager yesterday which required a lot of T crossing and I dotting and must've erased half of it by accidentally holding down some obscure key too long on Outlook. Clicked "undo" hoping to be saved but nup, gonski. So the email I actually sent read like the first half was typed up by the head of the Reserve Bank and the final rushed couple of paragraphs like they'd been done by an angry rebellious teen who didn't GAF.

Looking forward to the reply, if I receive one.

If your mind was frazzled you may well have signed off: Regards, Twinkletoes.
That would add to the humour and mirth at the bank.

I'm now relatively ungrumpy. My laptop had a recovery system that let me reset it. I keep all the files but had to spend three hours reinstalling programs. Cheers though.
