    I posted a few weeks ago about an interview, got informally offered the job today, subject to references, contracts, all that jazz.

    Am completely thrown, went for it as I really really wanted it, but feel bad at leaving my current job.

    Congratulations :) Your old employers will understand, these days more than ever it's important to do the best for oneself.

    My uncle passed away a few hours ago. He has been sick for a long, long time and he had been worse lately but I thought he still had a while left so it's a bit of a shock.

    So sorry to hear that WS, I hope you're doing okay. Hugs and PM is open x

    Sorry to hear about your dog Das, but it's great that Ash gave you comfort during his life :)

    On a happier note, I shall be receiving this soon

    So sorry to hear your sad news Das and WS. Major hugs to you both x

    So sorry to hear DK, it's never easy when you lose a dog.

    I remember the day my dog (who I got when I was five) died, I was in work and my Mum collected me, she broke the news to me in the car, he had a tumor on his liver that burst and he was bleeding internally, the vet had to come out to the house to put him down, as he was in so much pain Mum couldn't bring him to the vet.

    He was 15 and such a big part of my life growing up. They become a member of the family, and have such great characters. They love you more than they love themselves, and unconditionally.

    What a great long life your dog had DK, so sorry for your loss xxx

    I'm so sorry about Ash, Das Kitty. xxx

    Condolences to you, too, Wintersong. :(

    Sorry for your loss Wintersong.

    Feel your pain DK, my dog died not so long ago. It's a horrible feeling.

    The OH was out last night and thought it would be a nice gesture (since I was babysitting) to bring me home a battered Mars bar....Except he ate it on the way home.

    F'er. :D

    Woke up with the sticky puffy eyes of the morning after a cry. Ick.

    Also, there is no coffee in the building I work in this week as there are only about 20 of us in work. It's made me realise I have a caffiene problem because I'm sitting here and every five minutes I think about how I want a cup of coffee and strategies for attaining one. I suppose I would be more worried if I got off my arse and walked in the rain for a cup, but still. It's cutting into my thinking about sex every five minutes time. :pac:

    I'm going back to my WW meeting this evening after 3 weeks off. Three weeks in which I went on holiday and then responded to the news that I have an iron deficiency by eating beef 6 days out of 7. Definitely have a few pounds on, so back to the meeting to get my game face on again.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Politics Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 81,310 CMod ✭✭✭✭coffee_cake


    beef and veg every day, be grand then :)
    i had my first coffee in months yesterday and it wasn't nice
    glad i gave up now after all
    still tired though :(

    I wanted to do Cryptozoology at one point. Turns out there is no such course though (well not one that you could get a grant for anyway!). Shame, I coulda been a yeti expert.

    I have a t-shirt though.

    It basically makes your skin cells saturate so they puff up. Probably lasts about 10 minutes, likely makes you look like a duck.

    Wellll I think I will have to get a general heart check, just to be reassured. Between my mum with her heart failure, and apparently now my sister has some sort of heart murmur that has to be checked out.

    That's awful Ivy, hope she's all right. At least if it's identified now it can be monitored. I'm surprised they didn't check you during pregnancy with your family history.

    My mum only found out what was wrong with her a week before I had the baby so I didn't know to get checked. She had been sick for about six months and doctors were saying it was either asthma or psychosomatic! :rolleyes:

    Wellll I think I will have to get a general heart check, just to be reassured. Between my mum with her heart failure, and apparently now my sister has some sort of heart murmur that has to be checked out.

    All three of us in my family have heart murmurs, third one was only investigated recently, so dunno about him yet, but our two are benign, other brother only had his scan last week, so must go back to cardiologist. iirc about 25% of the adult population have them, and most are completely normal, its just a funny movement of blood in the heart - but its better to go and get checked anyway, given the family history.

    My prize came in the post this morning, they rang me about 1ish yesterday, and obviously put it into the post straight away and I got it this morning. What baffles me is that post sent from the town less than 10 minutes away can take three of four days to get here, whereas post from far away is next day delivery?? :confused:

    It depends on where the sorting office is. IIRC, post from Sligo gets sorted in Athlone. So if you post a letter in Sligo to your next door neighbour, it goes to Athlone and then comes back...

    Ivy, my mum had a heart murmur diagnosed about 3 years ago. Apparently they can go unnoticed for some time (62 years:rolleyes:) But, it's nothing to worry about. Hopefully your sisters is the same x

    Hard night at kickboxing last night, couldn't walk up or down the stairs, muscles in legs were shaking. It was a great session though, pushing harder now trying to build up my fitness and strength for hell and back in October....

    There's another site like that that has WAY more unis on it and lots of awesome courses. I've signed up to loads of them but never have the time to go through the coursework. Did about two weeks of cryptography about a month or so ago. Interesting stuff. :)
