    Sorry to hear that you are so nervous Colser, I'm nervous flying on my own but that's just a social anxiety thing. Could you go to your GP and explain how nervous you are? They might be able to give you a sleeping tablet/sedative for the flight.

    Thanks LMB...I got sedatives last year and still have them but never tried them.I wish someone would invent something that would knock you out for the exact length of the flight.God help whoever will be sitting beside me if I do actually board and if there's turbulence I'd say they'll press the eject button.

    My boss is on a long holiday and I am managing the team if her absence even though I earn less than half of what my boss does. The overall manager told me if I had any issues to make sure and come to her for help.
    Start off Monday and exactly half the team is out between holidays and sick and it's the busiest week I've ever experienced. I was able to sort most issues but had to refer about five things to my manager by email. Everything went like clockwork fortunately and we are all shattered . manager never comes near me all week to see how I'm getting on or if I need any help. - except at around eleven o clock this morning I see her pounding down the floor towards me. I was expecting her to ask how we doing and even say thanks but no she proceeds to give me a bollocking for referring so much stuff to her! Well I won't go into much detail but she'll think twice before coming near me again. And I think on Monday morning I'll be feeling a little bit sick and might need to get a cert for a week That'll teach her to look a gift horse in the mouth.

    This week I've bumped my funny bone TWICE. Once against the sharp edge of the car door, and a couple of days later against the corner of the front door. I can confirm that it's a misnomer*, it's not funny at all. So, double TA and double OUCH - it's still sore, in fact. I've tried to kiss it better but, as we know, we can't kiss our own elbows. :(


    (*I know, I know: funny --> humorous --> humerus)

    Just remembered I almost concussed myself this morning getting a bottle of water of the fridge and battered my head off the door in my dozy state.

    Why is boards.ie asking me to stop smoking with Nicotanelle? I don't smoke with Nicotanelle. (Or without it either.)

    Peeing constantly because I'm not well for whatever reason
    Fed up of it
    Took a few Valium so I'd sleep not pee
    I'm floaty n relaxed
    Fun
    Til I remembered
    Valium relaxes you
    Now I'm afraid to sleep incase it relaxes bladder

    I heard that, but legal say unless the laws about transferring information change, its a non runner.

    It's happening today across a whole range of hospitals and GPs, so you might want to change your legals.

    People who make a show of being unconventional but are really obsessed with how they're perceived.

    Ie. If your ex-girlfriend might need an ambulance but you're secretly worried about the neighbours would think about an ambulance pulling up outside.

    A TA for me is remeberingvway back when a fax wasn't considered a legal document. Certain info had to sent via telex. There. I said it.��

    It usually takes the law society half a century to become aware of new technology. And another to accept it.
    Half of them still sit at their desk with sleeve garters, half moon spectacles and an inkwell with a feather in it. Signing cheques. ;)

    When you have a dream that has you unsettled for the day. It's such a horrible feeling.

    Same here, also I thought I had a fine scratch on my windscreen (outside) but turned out to be a strand of web inside.

    Getting a message from someone you thought you had blocked and who you haven't thought about in a month. Ugh.

    Looking out some shoes for school next week, they have to be comfy enough for the 45 min walk to and from uni, breathable for obvious reasons and look well enough that I dont look like I just taken them out of a tip.
    TA'ed that any shoes I have like that, I've not worn much and need to be broken in, blisters, savlon and multiple plasters in my future.

    A family member who calls regularly to touch base and then starts an off call conversation with anyone else who is there, so I end up hanging there like a lemon till they decide it's my turn to listen to them. Ta'ed there is NO point in telling them not to do that.

    Took out a substantial sum of cash in the week, its spent now and I still have important things to spend yet more money on. Ta'ed that I still have things to spend money on AND that im not more grateful that at least I dont have to worry much about how to pay for these.

    I hate Ticketmaster. I only save a few euros by going to the next town for an Electric Picnic ticket. Today, for the first time, they asked for proof I'd been there before. I've been every year! But they haven't asked for proof. (In the first and second years they 'asked' for proof, I'd been there 3 times and they wouldn't even look at my wrist-bands, but I had the proof. This year I didn't bother, because I didn't think I had to.) I paid the extra €20...

    Boo-urns!!!

    Lawn mower on its last legs for a while. Last week the starter cord tore but grass needed cutting badly. So I repaired that today which is a bit of a pain when you do it the first the time what with that little spring in there and all the other bits. Copped it eventually, got it repaired, cut half my lawn then the engine blows up. Just stopped and oil coming out everywhere. At least I got it off the grass before the oil spilled on it.

    Now I have a half cut lawn which will no doubt be a jungle when I come back from my hols and I need to buy a new lawn mower just after coming back from my hols, of course I'll be broke then.

    Went to the cinema last night. A group of gobsh1tes talked out loud throughout the entire film, I have come to expect this now so it's starting to not bother me as much. I'm learning to blank it out.

    The seat I was on, though - dear God - the stickiness! I didn't notice until halfway through the film. I went to adjust my position to counteract ar$e-numbness and found I couldn't really move. My dress was stuck. I really hope the stickiness was from someone just spilling a drink or something. I'm annoyed that there were no spare seats left so I had to stay put and peel myself off the seat when the film was over. Bleugh.

    I am pedantically OCD about cinema seats. I'll literally take my phone and shine it on the seat to make sure there's no stain on it before I'll sit in it. I'll keep moving along until I find a clean one. And even then I'll still bring along a top to throw down and sit on. They are filthy gross.

    Had to go planting flowers this evening. To say I know nothing about gardening is putting it lightly. I brought a spoon to dig a hole for it. My brother saw me trying to dig a hole with a spoon and asked me what I was doing. He told me I needed a trowel not a spoon. I said I don't know where to find a trowel. He said "use one of the ones you put your face on with". Being trolled :(

    TA'd I didn't have the forethought to do either of these things!

    I was out with two friends last night. We only get to go out together every 8 or 9 months so tend to have a fair few drinks and have a late night when we're out. Anyway, we were in the pub and one of the others was drinking cocktails when the third girl and I were buying but had a bottle of beer on each of her own rounds. I hate stingy feckers!!
