Dear Die-ary...

Life without Nan is going quite ok. But what's really quite sad is that she died before my Dad's birthday, today. Well, I guess it's better than if she died ON his birthday.

I had no present for Dad. I mean, how could I get a present? He was upset already due to the passing away of his mother, and I couldn't just buy him chocolate, as he's even more diabetic than I am. As luck would have it, I found something. I was talking to some random people, and noticed some strange boxes behind a locker. I opened it, and found... Several toilet rolls!! Joy came to me! I took one of the toilet rolls back to my classroom, to tell everyone I'd found the skool toilet roll supply. I bumped into Evil and Jonesy and told them... and I also bumped into a teacher, Miss Prestidge. She asked me what I had got, and 'innocently' said I 'found' a toilet roll just... lying there. She told me to give it into reception, so I briskly walked down the corridor, with a choir of laughs behind me. I quickly glanced back as I got to reception, and continued walking. Ever seen a girl with a toilet roll walking down your skool corridor? I quickly shoved it in my bag, which was by some lockers. After being stared at by some girls, I acted like nothing had happened and went back. I still had my precious toilet roll.

When I got home today, there was a happy Dad sitting there, opposed to a sad Dad yesterday. He walked out of the room for a moment, and I quickly got out the toilet roll, and I found a pig keyring and put it in (there were plastic stoppers either end). The pig is see-through and filled with some kind of... gel, with tiny pink 'round things' in random places inside (how could I say 'balls' without getting strange looks??). I handed it to Dad, rather horrified to see me handing some toilet roll to him on his birthday. He asked me where the hell I got it from, to which I just replied, "There's something inside." I had to help him get the stoppers off, and he found the pig (yay!). I decided I should give him MY pig because when I found it in a shop, I bought it (to add to my collection) and he really wanted one, but being a martyr didn't get one. So now he has mine.

But I still be angry about the death of Nan... who can die of a broken leg??
