Lee Sarah And The Inexplicable Four Week Absence

You know Harry Potter and I have a lot in common, apart from the fact both my parents are alive, I left high school over ten years ago, there aren’t any prophecies about me and I’m not magic…

But other than those small differences, we are exactly the same…

…and I’m a girl. (It’s troubling that occurred to me last.)

For instance; I have life filled with both mind numbing monotony and spine tingling terror just like him, I am British like him, it feels like I was a child only a couple of years ago… just like him…

…

aaannnddd…

Okay maybe that’s it.

But I was also recruited to a special school for people with, seemingly magical powers, just like him. Although mine was run by a secret government agency and designed to “maximise the potential of all agents possessing enhanced abilities”. It was NOT a school of witchcraft and wizardry. (Which I’m kind of glad, since I don’t think those robes are particularly flattering.)

Oh! And I wear glasses!!!

Yep.

Anyway… In case anyone was wondering where I have been for the last month (remembers that no one cares or even called, fights urge to cry) I have been attending a sort of training camp (the non-optional variety) for work.

Four weeks! Four weeks of no phone, no Internet, no television, no alcohol (gasp) no take out, no fun and no sex (Okay that last one is just a condition of my existence lately and not in fact a rule at the training camp. Well it might have been a rule, it just... never came up. It never comes up.) (No Pun intended.)

I shall regale you with tales from my training at some point but for now I am back home, I am filled with a strong desire for pizza, wine, ice cream and a tall handsome man to eat the ice cream off of.

Although I guess I can make do with a bowl.
