Well, this is a surprise! Sitting here at nine in the morning, home alone for the first time in goodness knows how long. Good Surprise, definitely .
Surprise: [what definition shall I use today, dear?] Surprise.. it’s a noun! [1.amazement] a feeling of shock, wonder, or bewilderment produced by an unexpected event.
I don’t know how I feel about surprises. Oh. What a shocker (surpriser?) there.. Heather doesn’t know how she feels? Woooooow…. (I like sarcastic surprise…that’s a kind I know I like.)

‘I hate surprises’ is never a sentence my parted lips have produced and rightly so, because I don’t hate them. There are too many good surprises to hate them in general. However there are some surprises no-one will ever like . Take for example: Surprise! French tourists stole your thongs! Or Surprise! Your Mum has cancer-good luck in exams! Or Surprise! Santa isn’t real- we’ve just been lying to you your entire life!
Come to think of it I can’t call to mind any surprises I actually liked. (Does Surprise! Miley Cyrus actually belted out some decent (?) music! count?)
Shock horror… Do I hate surprises?
Okay- let us, for the purpose of answering the above question, think back to the last surprise I remember encountering: A week ago, my father (somewhat surprisingly) purchased a game for me. Not to sound ungrateful…but I’m not very adept at this genre of game, on top of which... his surprising niceness rattles my rather firm contempt for him.
To like surprises, or not to like surprises- that is the question. When all is said and done, at the end of the day, despite it all, I must give in to my shattering optimism and continue to think myself a ‘surprise-liker’… Perhaps that is the biggest surprise of all?
Oh and Frenchy.. if you ever read this- I hope you enjoy the thongs…Surprise! I gave you a foot infection! (Just Kidding!... maybe.)
