    I seem to have forgotten why one of my parents hasn't been talking to me for the past couple of days... Oh wait! They haven't informed me :(

    Oh Nikkster, that sounds horrible.

    So let me get this straight. You're a lovely person, you're gorgeous looking, you're studying for a PhD so we know you're smart and hard working. What on earth does your brother have that you don't? A Nobel prize or something? My parents are just happy that my brother and I have never done anything to end up in prison.

    ... yet. I'm sure it's always at the back of their minds.... one sniff of a police car pulling up near their house and I bet it crosses their mind :)

    That's parents for you ... always expecting the worst.

    I'm not sure what to say to most of that :o

    Unless I find out what heinous thing I have done, its not personal. Just a bit of a phase. Probably a bit to do with bro being back this weekend, also to do with me hopefully leaving in a few weeks (at the present moment I'm still going to move even if the job falls through!) and so having to deal with the nest emptying again.

    There has been some (more than you can imagine) stress over the past few weeks deciding where to go on holiday next year/ when will fit in with when they can get time off work :cool:
    But I still love them dearly, and I know that I have the same capacity for being a but of a nut case. The best way I've found to deal with it is to try not to rise to it. Which is very trying indeed!
