New meanings
"Will the bank be open today?" I say to my dad as I wander into the kitchen.I am unsure how he is going to cook lunch, for there are three computers in bits all over the sides.
"What day is it today?" he says, stopping filling the kettle to stare at me.
"It's the anniversary of our cat's death!"
He pauses. "Ye-es. And what day is that?"
"Good Friday," I say proudly. My religious knowledge is SO GOOD.
"And this is a...?"
"Bank Holiday," I say automatically.
He stares at me.
I make thoughtful faces.
He stares some more.
"Ohhh," I say. "BANK holiday. Ohhh."
He shakes his head. "There it is."

Hah, celebrity book blogger indeed. You got GIFT VOUCHERS off your readers and are thus more of a celebrity blogger than I.
Sorry to hear of YOUR health woes. I would moan in my blog, but 'a problem shared is a problem halved' and I do like to bask in my woes. Nice and psychologically balanced of me. :)
Now get back to your dissertatioN!
(Look at that, I also replied immediately!)
Ha. Stoic is not a word the receptionist at my GP would use to describe me..
You are a mad person, doing an english degree AND THEN a law degree. Blimey. Am impressed. (Well, mad OR extremely sensible, judging by the lack of employment opportunities my english degree seems to be opening up for me.)
