    Woke up with a dull, aching headache.
    I had some red wine last night, but it's wine I've had before and I didn't drink any more than usual, so I was a tad surprised to wake up to a headache.
    The other TA thing is that it took FOREVER for the painkillers to do their job.

    Exact same here and I didnt have much because Im babysitting,banging headache this morn and a blocked nose..Im blaming it on the heating being on too long.:pac:

    I love coffee, but I'm having to stop drinking it at work. My office is such a harsh environment, with noise, interruptions and stupidity coming at me from all directions, that the caffeine means the difference between "mildly irritable" and "bite-your-bloody-head off". Grrrr. :o

    Oh I had the blocked nose too. I also had the heating on for a long time last night, only turning it off when I went to bed.
    Can't have helped!

    Hope you're feeling better; I had a few cups of tea and some toast and I'm OK now. Dry mouth though, gonna drink lots of water today :)

    The use of faze and phase as if they meant the same thing, lots of examples of it in print media. The most recent one I saw was in Tubridy's review of Terry Wogan's new book in last Saturday's IT.

    Supermarkets that have signs at the 'till saying 10 items or less (should say fewer).

    In Tesco earlier with my friend and we were humming and hawing :rolleyes:about a little plastic container of sweets(Pastilles.Jelly Tots and Randoms)for 5e.I bought them even though I wouldnt really eat them but thought theyd keep my son in good form for 5 mins and got charged 13e at the til:eek:.Fuming then as I was sent to queue at CS and said to my friend this will be entertaining as Im calling a manager because Ive been overcharged in there numerous times.
    Didnt even get the satisfaction to complain because 13e is correct ..how the hell can a few fcuking jellies cost that much and why the hell dont they put the right price in front of stuff .
    I wont even start on the parking at the shopping centre earlier,absolutely mental and when people get into their car knowing that youre waiting for the spot and spend 10 minutes "fixing themselves" before driving off I actually want to hurt them badly:mad:

    Follow up on this..I just went to Centra and bought those fecking jellies for 6e..fcuk you Tesco you definitely had 5e marked on them:mad:

    And babies please do all your business at one time,dont make me change a dirty nappy only for part 2 to arrive a few minutes later.

    Is it wine time yet?

    There I was laughing in the face of Friday the 13th last night, until I decided to go and slam the cutlery drawer shut on my finger & finger nail. Almost decapitating my finger in the process.:(

    When the next person who enters the public bathroom chooses to take the stall right next to mine when ALL the others are free.

    When someone is as loud as they can possibly be when they enter the stall. Slamming the door open and shut, slamming the toilet seat, plonking their ar*e down, practically yanking the toilet roll holder off the wall with a massive tug, letting said toilet roll holder smack against the wall, slamming the lid on the toilet, yanking the flusher, banging the stall door open and slamming it shut behind them.

    When the person who did all of the above sneaks out behind you while you're at the sink and they haven't washed their hands.

    Hate that. You have to expedite your dump and get out of there before the woodwind symphony kicks in.

    That's never fun... not even when you do it with the door of the chest freezer, just at the level of the lock. I do feel your pain, believe me. :(

    Shampoo bottles etc falling on your foot in the shower. They get roared at.

    Watching able-bodied people walk up to an assisted button door, pressing the button, finding it not working and walking away.

    Em, ever heard of just pushing the door open? (Which is what I proceeded to do on the other side)

    Living in another country where people pretend (yes, pretend!) not to understand my word for something when it's not the same as theirs.

    Examples -

    Queue - they say line-up, I say queue - they get all "I'm sorry, what?" - Come on FFS, queue is a word defined in the dictionary, it's actually way more relevant than line-up.

    Holiday - they say vacation, I say holiday - but they get all confused looking when I say, oh I'm on holiday next week. FIGURE it out!!! I know what vacation means, why can't you figure out what holiday means.

    This really annoys me in america. There isnt even an attempt to understand what you are saying.

    When you're trying to go up a slip road and some ****er going straight is waiting at a red light and is ignorantly too far across and blocks your route up the inside. Infuriating.

    My touch-pad has turned into an absolute donkey and won't work properly. Looked up a solution and it seems I need to take out the battery and do other stuff in the BIOS screen. I need a tiny screwdriver to take out the battery. I don't own a tiny screwdriver :(

    Also, TA that my car is being ominous after months of smooth driving. Usually when my car gets weird it costs me a fortune :(

    Also, the stupid touch-pad just changed my FB language to an Arabic looking language so I'll have to look up how to change it back.

    First world problems etc.

    Rob you sound like a perfect candidate for "My Strange Addiction" on TV channel TLC. They have professionals who will help you find out "why?" :)
