Plausability (91)

I’m sure there are more significant uses of the internet than trying to buy Nigella Lawson’s blue & cream biscuit/cake tins

I DID IT!

I did it!

It’s the first time I’ve had a good go at it since June; since i got back from Barcelona; other times I’ve just had a five minute quickie first thing in the morning, or last thing at night, but last night I did it – 4 hours and I loved every minute of it – standing up as we...

Vitriol (85)

I’ve been extolling the virtues of CBT to people on the telephone this morning. The lady cried. She said I’d been more help to her than any healthcare person in the past year.

She didn’t sound crackers, but then people who really are, never do....I certainly didn’t......and now I’m less crackers,...

Liquid (98)

I need one of these to put my tap on tonight!

I’m tired

I was playing Monopoly Party on the PS2 til 12 last night then got up at 7.30.......I didn’t get a lot of sleep Sunday night as the Rover quiz dragged on for longer as usual due to the sheer numbers of people crammed into the pub. Nigel’s parents came and weren’t much help apart from ge...

Contraption (78)

I’ve been far too sociable this weekend

My flat has been like a drop in centre for unmarried mothers, unemployed layabouts and various other gayers

I’ve just had a phonecall from cynds to say that he has snogged my brother.......

I know he’s been meaning to do it for a long time – he’s...

Troisieme (84)

Three things that have amazed or do amaze me on this lovely Friday.

*1) Wristbreakers*

No, not men being overly-familiar with right-hand antics, but we are talking umbrellas here, and why oh why at the first sight of rain, do ladies (not sexist, but a viewed trait) seem to abuse the right to kee...

Shopper (92)

NEW JOB ALERT!

and the best job in the world ever

A MYSTERY SHOPPER

We get paid ten of your english pounds to go buy certain items from certain shops, but, as ever the awful actor, I seemed to get rumbled as the Mystery Shopper.

Short of having my shoes polished and my hands dried, I got...

Justice (88)

Ohhhh

I was painting

I was drilling

I was putting Ikea units together

I’m now typing

Doing no-thing

And I’m better off than ever

I’m so cheerful

Never tearful

Now I don’t work for anyone else

I feel free

Really free

I suggest to everyone to jack their jobs in and work as receptio...

Mangrove (123)

There is something bleeping outside constantly and its keeping me awake and I’m a little annoyed by it

Homebase have left a nice sign outside my drive. I have exercised my right to anything that washes ashore and have taken the rather large sign on board.

There was a drunken man who fell aslee...

Hegemony (112)

I had two more proposals for Data Analysts jobs today on the phone when I came back today. One was working for NPfIT – which has nothing to do with data analysis, but some wanker in the 80s took the phrase to mean “computer fixer” and it was in Kidlington (the largest village in Europe – so I’m told...

I am home

My first part-time day for 5 years – and yes – it’s still light outside.

Bob looked at me a little puzzled when I walked through the front gate about 30 minutes ago.

Well if I do insist on working less than 30 hours, I really should go and use the time wisely and do some more de...

Molasses (85)

I’ve been sent to a Loony asylum!

Well for two weeks at least. I’m sitting there looking at the internet – well no-one has told me to do anything different.

I’m a receptionist!! – my dream is fulfilled. I can’t believe how easy it is either and I don’t know any of the people I keep putting cal...

Revolution (75)

So.....

This might be my last regular update for a while.

In a couple of hours, N will be home for good, and as seen as we’re both unemployed/able, I hope we don’t end up getting on each other’s nerves too much. My trauma and ecstasy for this day and it’s implications have been all too plain t...

Grobelaar (133)

I don’t know why I wrote that tosh last night other than that I was tired and slightly drunken and I’m just confused and apprehensive about what’s going to happen over the next few months.

Hopefully, Nigel and I will become as close again as we did before, but this time with knobs on. Over the pa...

Succint (96)

And so a midweek update – as rare as rocking-horse shit

So I’m trying my best to upset my boyfriend. I don’t know why. If I was to step back and analyse the situation, as I so often patronise with others, then I might, but hey.

A rocky outcrop

I feel lashed by those all around me. There’s n...

Huzzah!

Pam was good. It would have been better if I hadn’t desperately needed a piss throughout both acts, concentrating on not engulfing the entire Economy class in torrents of urine.

Twas muchos fun. We waited at the right stop, but at the wrong place – now there’s West Midlands transport f...

Stalwart (95)

I didn’t do it in the end.

As soon as I had made the decision not to, I was relieved. I spend the whole morning waiting for someone to text me, anyone, as I needed to know that I wasn’t this bad person I have been telling myself that I have become.

I’m not a bad person – I’m just a little frus...

Precipice (37)

Something rather bizarre happened yesterday – well it really wasn’t that bizarre

As I was jabbering on the phone to Nigel, upsetting people in the library he was sitting in, a wasp fell out of a tree and hit me in the face; no stingy, no pain, no nowt.

It sort of hovered a couple of metres inf...
