    TA'd because I got little sleep, I Had a bad dream last night about one of my brothers, he's an alcoholic and has made our life's hell the last couple of years but he's been dry since September after a relapse and in the dream he was drunk again in a car park of a local supermarket and I was inside looking out at him stumbling about shouting abuse at me, has me on edge all morning and I can't relax, not even my daily intake of the hash browns cheered me up (no not that kind of hash :D)


    *gets coat*

    He'll be home for Xmas so that has me on edge too as well as this exam.

    I was leaving the house this morning and I slipped on the back door step. The mat was completely frozen solid. I came right down and the step gave me a nice whack in the centre of my back. Lovely. In agony :(

    Got my hair cut from just below my waist into a bob on Friday.
    My boyfriend, who I live with, has yet to notice or comment on it.

    At a glance, I thought this was about you getting a haircut, below the waist. On Friday, by Bob

    Time for Specsavers😂

    Looking at the renewal notice for the RPT, and looking at my road, which hasn't a hope in hell of getting gritted. Remind me why we pay this?

    I have a low-grade-coldy-type-thing that is severe enough to make work an absolute slog, but not bad enough to take a sick day. Just wish it would make up its mind and either come or go.

    Booked a taxi with the app on Saturday night. The driver added on the call out charge after I questioned the fare and said it had been introduced. The office said it hadn’t, the lying louse. This was after he reversed into a parked car before we got in.

    If this was with MyTaxi, there was an email sent out a few months ago that they were introducing this charge :mad:

    Haven't stopped eating all day in work, loads of cakes and sweets and I went to the pub for lunch. Was planning on taking it easy for dinner to make up for my gluttony but I just remembered I'm going for dinner with my parents.
    At this rate I'll be wearing elasticated pants by New Year!

    No, kinda why I only use them the odd time now. It was Galway taxis who proudly posted a facebook status after MyTaxi introduced it to say we don’t do that.

    TA I want to order food but probably shouldn’t.

    I bought a few bottles of wine as thank you gifts and didn't think to get any for myself. I'm sitting at home now looking at the wine and telling myself not to drink it. First time in a while I can get properly wasted and I forget to buy wine for myself, grumble.

    So sick of the tube arsing around and changing destinations when I’m halfway anywhere or stopping for 20 minutes at a station because of a “signal failure” that I’m pretty sure is code for “we’re a disorganised mess so you can sit here and freeze while we regulate our schedule and fcuk you too lol”.

    That and people who don’t wash and then sit beside me or crush into me during rush hour. Seriously London general public, sort yerselves out for the love of god.

    I'm so sick of moving.

    A week on site. A weekend somewhere else. Back on site. And I have to pack so often that it's not worth unpacking anymore.

    tldr - TA'd that I don't have a steady home for my toothbrush.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,151 ✭✭✭misstearheus


    WTAF* :eek:

    You might as well just put a sign up saying "Rodents eat for Free".

    *A is for absolute

    I'm now t.a.'d about this as I was feeling smug that I thought I knew the a in wtaf was actual.


    My Phone is gone craycray bananas. I think it's drunk hah. It's charging away but won't turn on when charging at wall. It will turn on when charging with Laptop though oddly enough. And it's going from like 5% to 10% t0 21% back to 4% in rapid-fire time. It's insane. :( At one stage it was at 4% and saying 26h left before fully charging! 26 hours!!! Madness! Then half an hour later it said it'll be fully charged in 4 hours. I can't turn the thing on now at the moment even though it's lit up and charging away apparently normally.:mad::( But deffo nowhere near normal. I'm in 2 minds about getting a Contract Phone. Someone please convince me not to and just try save up to buy a Handset outright and just stick with PAYG. Or if anyone wants to buy me a Phone as a Christmas pressie go right ahead! :pac::D

    As I'm writing this I seem to remember complaining about the same thing before and I'm now wondering if was a cold snap around then too... I wonder does cold Temperature have anything to do with the nutsn'bolts / internal parts of a Phone anyone know.... STOOPID AR$ECRACK POXY AR$E TECHNOLOGY.

    The person who took down the tree last year just fired the lights into the box and thus, there's three sets of lights tangled into one.
    Luckily I'm home alone or I'd punch him in the face

    I feel your pain .
    today I had to go collect something with the trailer for my father.
    it was awkward so I brought 6 ratchet straps.
    the last time I used them I brought them back all rolled up neat and tidy and cabled tied to keep them that way.
    today I find all 6 unrolled and the ratchet halfway along them . all intertwined together and in a big ball.
    took me ages in the freezing cold to untangle them enough to use.
    when I take the yoke off the trailer at the week end I'm not going to bother tidying them just through them in a heap again

    My colleagues have an awful ratchet strap ettiquite.
    I hate someone driving my truck when I'm on holidays,all the straps are fcuked into the cab and I spend ages getting them untagled to secure the load.
