I have a had a wonderufl summer of fun... however this was sadly cut short when today... welll sunday day... my last day of holiday from work i called up work to find out what shift i was on on monday... I also coinsidently had an awful f**k off hangover .... unfortunatly i then found out I was meant to be working sunday night... now this is not a good thing when you have a raging hangover and think you might die... only three and a half hours to go
ooo i have been a busy bunny, applying for new jobs... looking for new flats and generally being a busy thing...
still can't decide if i should get gulifest tickets.. i do find it hard commiting to things... organising a friends hen night. left it a bit late and its turning out to be a nightmare... we have a venue for dinner (SOS on farringdons roof restaurant if anyone knows it) but getting in contact and organising a bunch of some, less than intelligent women is proving to be a pain in the ar
ooo the pook has been off visiting his grandparents... i think i have become an old bat... the pace of going out five nights out of seven was far too much... think my liver nearly gave up on me... looking forward to having him back and a mor relaxed pace
in other news glasto ticket buying was a success... just got to buy some for guilfest and maybe shambala now i think i will be having a very nice summer... mother minskyyy has got a job in athensso will be wondering over there sometime this
give a child a roll of tin foil and he will be happy for the whole morning bliss
....
having a rather accident prone night at work... collegue has been admitted after wacking her head on the xray tube.... and i have hurt my ankle... willi make it through the night?
watched a very disturbing programme on channel 4 last night... animal farm..
the double muscled cows were disgusting... and when asked if they were as healthy and had the same quality of life as normal cows all the man could say is that their quality of life was comparable to intensivly farmed cattle.... oooo and the chicken bred to be super large with no feathers so that you can farm broiler chickens in tropical climates.... ackity disgusting....
that and the argument for f**king with rice
sprog is ill so i have had to spend today awake... aterworking last night... i have achieved this by mainly playing tangerine panic... how can somthing so simple be so amusing... must be the effects of sleep deprivation....
the weather is wonderful and i have bought a new tent
and its got bedrooms no more crawling in and out of the tent.... and somewhere to store my crap the doesn't mena i end up sleeping on it
i now just need to purchase my selk bag and i will be a happy bunny.... the idea of a sleeping bag suit is very appealing... especially a bright yellow one
may go and test the tent over easter in cornwall.... oooo new things
....
and my thought for the day.... angelina jolie... fine adopt a
My aunt is has recieved her scan results... riddled with mets in her liver, through out her bowel and her lymph system ... primary is inoperable... i will be consoling myself with vodka tomorrow and friday... and prehaps saturday for good measure...
she is not keen on flowers and can't eat anything so i have sent her an oxfam unwrapped gift to cheer her up....
in other cheerful news i have been given the option of lodging a complaint against someone at work for harassment... ooo the fun o
still no news as regards aunties CT report.... they are saying they will tell her next week... i find this amazingly frustrating as i well know that if they rush you in for a CT on the emergency list they already have a report and are stalling until they have decided what they are going to tell her... grrrr
so spending friday night in drinking scrummy wine and watching crap tv.... not feeling overly social........ still looking about for jobs but not much about unless i fancy moving south of
The weekend did not improve after friday.... found out on saturday that my aunt is in the process of being diagnosed with bowl cancer.... my Dad's in a state over it.... CT scan results to today so fingers crossed its a primary and there are no mets sometimes it is shit knowing too much about the prognosis for diseases...
the problem with the birthdays off friends is that you are expected to turn up for hte night out and not go home after half an hour and you don't get to pick the venue
last night started off with drinks which was fine.... Tiger Tiger on the other hand is a shit hole... in the end i stopped drinking as it was not making things any better.... i think i have had enough off crap birthday drinking/dancing venues and will from now on refuse to go to shit places... as if the blag club was not bad e
the problem with working nights is not only the way it messes with your body clock but also after 10 hours you get a bit bored of your own company when it is deathly quiet
back to work tonight..... ackity.... not looking forward to the mountain of e-mails and other shit that will be waiting for me... not to mention the fact i will be working a 12 hour night... boo
the pook has just fallen asleep on the floor whilst listening to the jungle book... don't think he has adjusted to being back at school yet....
might do some shopping online tonight to pass the time.... remember if you hurt yourself tonight do not in an circumstances come to uch A&E!!
.... h
I am back from Egypt... it was wonderful. the weather was great. nice and warm at around 30 all week... sadly i do not have tan but i do have more freckles... prehaps i will just wait until they all join up
managed to cram a stupid ammount of stuff into one week....
Day one - went to luxoe temple which was breath taking - really liked the avenue of sphnixes(sp?).... the whole scale of the ancient egyptian temples is unbelivable.... can't get my head around how they made them all.... after
in only a few hours i will be setting of to egypt where it is not cold wet and miserable... can't wait.... this has lead to a degree of glasto photo rejection paranoia.... so fingers crossed when i return it will all have gone through ok... i am packed and ready to go... only taking with me three pairs of shoes
ah the wonderfullness of annual leave... not back in work until the 28th... sadly as usual the minute i go on annual leave i get a cold... so i am currently battling the invasion of the snot bubbles...
sadly on the 4th of feb my PC died in a puff of smoke... bloody stupid technology... luckily yesterday (only a week late bloody city link delivery!!) i got a shiney new lap top... the bloody thing is confusing the hell out of me but makes up for that by being very pretty
off to egypt on mon
Curse the world.... work a 12 hour night shift and then find out two of the people who are meant to relieve you are running very late... i want my bed!
Rome was wonderful... however coming home to a mountain of work was not quite so pleasant....
but my really gripe for today was the comments made by a stupid cow who i work with... this morning i was only the early shift and had forgotten to change the sheets as had my two collegues... cow from lack of social skills hell comes in... looks at me and one of my male collegues and says "have you changed the sheets?" to which reply no but we will do it in a minute.. she then turns to me and says T
off to Rome for the weekend this afternoon ... can't wait going out last night was not such a good idea though... especially not as i have done no packing .. have no euros and generally feel like a pig has pooped in my head
oppsieee just realised my printer has no ink.... this is not good and after having a bath i can't hear out of my left ear.... i think this trip may be cursed
finish a 12 hour night shift and set off on my merry way home... train to willesden junction is fine... all is good with the world... wait for connecting train to richmond... ok first one cancelled next one will turn up... still moderatly cheerful.........
but oh no, after waiting over half an hour for the damn train they announce that the line is suspended... this is followed by the useful suggestion of getting a train the clapham junction then a train to richmond followed finally by a train
after today bar work is looking like a promising alternative career...
off out with my bestest friend tonight to drown my sorrows... hopefully will improve my mood
although tonight i will not be having any shooters... i am promising myself... fingers crossed i can stick to it
