My mother is doing my nut in!
I came home from work today to find a letter from Aberdeen uni saying I've got an interview in a couple of weeks (w00t!) and I need to prepare a presentation.
I stupidly told my mother. I also told her how I was looking forward to coming home and not having to think about anything to do with uni for the first time in weeks then this stupid letter arrives (GAR!!!)
She says, "Well, take tonight off and think about it tomorrow!"
Then she proceeds to phone me 5 times in the last 2 hours with internet sites and people I could phone to get help with it. Everytime I have to stop what I'm doing to go to websites and look round them with her until she'll go away! 5 TIMES!!!!
AAAAAAAARGH!!!! LEAVE ME ALONE! I WANT A NIGHT OFF!!!!!!
I know it's just because she cares but can she not leave me in peace for 2 bloody minutes?

You should have just said to her, "thanks for the links, I'll check em out tomorrow.."
Just humour her. Let her get on with it. She's just doing what she thinks is best.
