    Set my alarm for 7.30 am. Woke around 6.50 after dreaming my alarm had gone off and that I'd fallen back to sleep. Ran into shower without checking time until later. Then realised I didn't need to be in work until 10 anyway (commute time for me is 5 minutes!).

    I could have had an extra 2 hours sleep this morning :mad:

    Rare day off today and had planned to do so much.

    Haven't done anything except enjoy a cup of coffee whilst reading the paper

    Ate too much for lunch and it feels like the food is just lodged in my throat. I'm such a glutton.

    Work group asking me about that poor man in Drumcondra(as I know the area well),
    one turns around to me and says, aren't you so lucky that you have somewhere nice to live.

    So many ta's about this, the least of which strangers presuming ANYTHING about my life.

    In the same vein, ppl asking where my 'family' are now, and how I must be this and that as an 'empty nester'.

    PFOPFOPFO.

    I've a stitch on my back - it started on my neck on Sunday night, and it's now spread to half way down my left shoulder blade. I can reach it to press on it but not with enough pressure to "un-knot" it, and using a pen to reach it without straining my arm won't do much. I need a door jamb, or someone good with opposable thumbs. I'm also wondering if it's a bra-strap-related issue... :/ Anyway, ouch!

    Put a sweeping brush handle between you and a wall and find the spot and roll your back back and forth on the handle

    Giving out about how I didnt get responses from this or that message I left for various associations/businesses on their SM,

    A tennis ball works well too :)

    TA, I made a mug of coffee and it tasted like there was no sugar in it. I knew I had taken a spoon of sugar out of the jar, so I stirred it and tasted it again and there was no difference. I went to get more and saw that I had put the spoon of sugar into a bowl beside the sugar jar.
    D'oh :(

    Drivers beeping at learner drivers. Your beeping will not help them move away from the lights any faster, infact they will probably get more flustered and stall the car again.

    Must be great knowing how to drive from birth.

    No, I'm not a learner, passed that test many moons ago.

    Today FM is an intelligence killer.
    I think Ive forgotten some facts and words as a result of listening to it today.


  • Registered Users Posts: 40,179 ✭✭✭✭ohnonotgmail


    i accidentally caught a bit of Niall Boylan when i popped out at lunchtime. i think my IQ dropped a few points. It is like listening to the worst of AH.

    Every now and then my parrot Charlie goes through a naughty phase where he tries to destroy things he knows he's not allowed to touch. I turned around today and found him with the cord of the laptop charger in his beak. Luckily I got it off the little sh!t before he chomped right through it.

    Yesterday he got hold of a pen and I don't care about the pen but he managed to pull out the ink cartridge and if he chewed that he'd poison himself. The little brat thought it was hilarious and wouldn't give it to me and I was chasing him around the house like a mad thing. If anyone had seen it.

    Today he also shredded the zip on one of my hoodies. It's like having a toddler with wings. If there's something he shouldn't be doing, he'll find a way to do it. Why can't he just behave like Ruby?

    Everything is annoying me today.

    People who arent even in the queue,standing behind the person that is.But they are miles behind them,and dont move up.

    Old biddies getting on and asking the bus driver a million questions.Why did the other bus not come.Cause he probably knew,you would be there.

    People on buses paying but not moving over to let the Leapcard users do their business.

    Im going to bed.Maybe tomorrow be a better day.

    At least when the parrot is getting on my nerves I can just leave the apartment. I don't think you can take that approach with toddlers :pac:

    I have a clothes horse that goes horizontal rather than vertical. The height is about waist level.

    White wash drying away on it. Unexpected visitor arrives. Proceeds to pick up the free "area newspaper " from the pile of post. Opens it out on the clothes horse reading away.....damp white clothes + freebie newspaper ink... What could go wrong!
