nells gone to argentina.
took her to the airport last night and told her i that i wasnt sticking around and saying and waving goodbye – rather i was just going to kick her tubby butt out of the car in the general vicinity of the departures area and drive off.
no, its not because i am mad with her.
rather, it is because i missed her a lot this year and having her here for the last 10 days or so made me realise how much i missed her.  you just have to look at the number of posts added here and on flashpackers (and the dumbass photos on facebook) to work out how much fun we were having.  but when she said she wasnt coming back after argentina, i wasnt mad, i was more sad.

this morning, i have decided to get over it!
shes one of my best friends but she still has many many traits that i am sure i can find annoying if i think long and hard about them.  so prepare for my therapy.  and if youre reading this nell …. nah nah nah nah nah, you cant get me from there!  besides, you know as well as i do, that the more shit i give you; the more i actually love you.

nell had been here 5 minutes before i gave her something to choke on 🙂

to help me get happy again – and in celebration of her leaving – here are the top 10 reasons i am glad nells gone …..

number one.
i dont have to wash her long dark hair off the shower walls everytime i get in the shower

number two.
napoleon dynamite will start sleeping on my bed again

number three.
perhaps my liver will return home (it left the day after she arrived)

number four.
a new roll of toilet paper wont need replacing after 10 minutes

number five.
i can start working in my home office again instead of scrunching up on the couch and trying to work out where to place my mouse and pad (it slides off my knee)

number six.
i’ll stop spending money.  i spent more in the last couple of weeks than i have in the last couple of months!

number seven.
shes let me her PADI library.  thats a lot less i need to buy for when (and if) i do the instructor course

number eight.
the diet started today!  and the walking/running starts tonight

number nine.
the mirror in the bathroom stays clean

and the top ten reason i am glad nell has gone …….
when i say i am a divemaster, she wont pipe up from behind me with “actually youre just a trainee”
