Wednesday 22nd August 2007
Today there was a slightly awkward moment at nursery. I went to pick up A****** for his lunch and this older boy (well, I think he was a boy) very deliberately hit the base of my spine (well, when I say 'deliberately', I mean the action of hitting was deliberate, rather than (I assume) the part of me that was hit) as I was kneeling to lift A****** out of some plastic car thingy. I didn't really think anything of it, but two of the carers saw the incident and so the boy/girl unit was made to apologise to A******'s daddy. After the apology, I wasn't really sure what to say next, so just smiled and said, "That's okay." Was that the right response? Maybe I should have gone, "Your apology is accepted, child, but prey this sorry incident is never, ever repeated again, OR THERE WILL BE HELL TO PAY AND REVENGE WILL BE DELIVERED UNTO YOU TWICE FOLD." Lord knows. Had I said that, he/she/it might have just smiled smugly and gone, "I think the use of the word 'again' was tautological." Otherwise I've been busy either mastering some of the old Bellerophon tape reels or else trying to get some of my maths assignment done (only two left now).
