    The loaf of bread got squashed on the way home and the slices have halved in size. Tiny sandwiches for everyone :(

    Dog got into kitchen this morning. Ate 1/2lb of butter about 4 slices of fruit brack and licked the grill pan clean. He then took the remaining butter up to the top of the stairs. This was what alerted me to his mischief when I got home. He's a ravenous animal but never thought he'd go up on table for stuff. I left hall/kitchen door open so I'm not totally blameless but he opened porch door to get in.

    I'm sorry:)

    He must've been on the lash with Fussy Onion :)

    TA I was on the lash last night which means I can't start my diet today because I too cannot be filled.

    I opened a bottle of wine last night, poured a glass and left the bottle on the draining board. When I came back for a top up, the parrot had knocked the bottle into the sink and all the wine had poured out :mad: Nothing is sacred in my house :rolleyes:

    People asking me what I do to make small talk. Radiographer this morning asking me what I do. Feeling embarrassed to say "nothing" or "looking after my health" because I look perfectly healthy, it's my insides that are fecked. Lying and saying I'm a legal secretary because I was up to a month ago and I don't like to think of myself having no purpose at all.

    TA that I get so nervous. I've been offered a 6 week Job trial and I could do with the cash. But I'm so nervous to start

    What about being a boardsie :pac:
    You should never be ashamed for taking time out to look after yourself. I know how you feel though I used to be the same a few years ago when I took time out to care for Mam. The questions were never ending "what are you going to do next", "there's jobs going in xyz why don't you apply". They meant well but I felt like saying would ye ever feck off.
    I let their comments get to me too much and went back to study and work sooner than I'd have liked so don't make the same mistake!

    The "I need to stop wasting money" conversation I have with myself semi regularly just before I wonder will I go get a manicure or a fancy lunch

    TA : When people create a review for something, or recommend something, without giving it a reasonable trial first.

    People sitting on the stairs eating in college when people are trying to walk up and down them. Move out of the way you f#££ing f#*kbags.
    One of those days where a foot up someone's hole would do me the world of good

    It is awkward, Isn't it?
    I need to be close to home in case a relative with alzheimers needs me, for various reasons, although I'm not his primary carer, but I was and back then it was awkward. Having said that I don't have a proper job title to start with, technically I'm an artist. I'm a writer but if I say that, they'll ask what I've written, and I can hardly tell them...it's erotic fiction :D

    SO, TA to questions like that.

    Whisking cream just there - little micro spatters of cream going everywhere and while I'm getting TA'd at that, not paying attention and nearly turning the cream into butter!

    Long day at work. Stressful weekend. Want to go home and relax, have dinner and watch the soaps. Friend texts. "I might call over if that's okay". Ffs I think, won't get a minute to myself. I ask her if she'll have dinner, as I won't eat my dinner with someone looking down my neck. "No thanks I'm alright".

    I'm not sure what's annoying me, the fact I'm anti social or the fact she's calling over this evening and I won't have any dinner

    Interview tomorrow and Im nervous as feck :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,633 ✭✭✭✭Widdershins


    A few months back, a cheeky duck of a friend announced he's going to be my lodger. No, you're not. If I wanted a lodger I'd make it known.
    Another one he announced he's coming for a visit. Plans to stay with me. No, you are not. I am not having him staggering around drunk in my home.
    Now some eejit asking if I can video message. Flip off.
    You, and you, and you, off you feck.

    Yeah I have always gone back to work too soon or worked when I shouldn't have because I felt guilty or like people would be judging me but recently I thought feck that, I need to get my health under control now or I won't be doing anything! People and their opinions can fly up my hole :p

    sure I'm a full time boards entertainer anyway, I don't have time to be working :p

    I was all delighted when the bus was late so I saved myself walking out of town.
    Until these 3 drunk oul lads sat behund me and one standing up facing me.
    Now they were grand and I was chuckling along at the conversation to not seem like a tool, but the smell of booze was churning my tum.
    Granted I probably had those fumes yesterday but I didn't get out of my pjs let alone make conversation with people.

    I'm perished with the cold this evening.

    My hair is not sitting right on my head since I got my colour and cut a few weeks back. My parting is in exactly the right place yet doesn't feel right and chunks of hair keep flopping to the wrong side of it :(

    Same. I'm using hair grips to tame it but the fake gemstones keep dropping out. Cheap Chinese tat. They go to the effort of making them look nice and don't bother to glue the gems on.

    In a queue for a popular cafe in Berlin and a German couple cuts the queue in front of me. Would have said something put I don't speak German.
    They might have understood me but I was afraid they'd pull the "I don't speak English" card.

    I hit something on the way home :(
    I think it was a fox but I'm not sure. I pulled in the car to see but i think it ran off I couldn't see anything. I'm so annoyed with myself but I couldn't avoid it, it ran straight out. I thought it was a fox but now I'm doubting myself and am sick thinking it was someone's poor doggy :( I couldn't find it. I am so upset

    For future reference - "Achtung"!

    Also the international language of pushing back ahead of them. ;)

    Just check that there's nothing trapped underneath. Exact thing happened me once and I felt sick for days after.

    TA I have to motivate myself for a busy week ahead after a lazy day off today.
