Very little sleep last night aaaaargh

Sephiroth_dude · 23-10-2023 08:32AM

Still in bed have to get up soon or I'll be late, no early morning walk here today, feeling meh.

Gremlinertia · 23-10-2023 09:40AM

First coffee serving me well better not have another too soon

SuperBowserWorld · 23-10-2023 10:03AM

Have today booked "off" which is a good thing as I could not sleep last night. Going to get up and have an excellent breakfast and go for a walk first. Then do all the crap I need to get done.

23-10-2023 10:35AM

Just off the phone with HR for new job.. this sucks anyway

cj maxx · 23-10-2023 10:39AM

Just got into bed, again .

Gremlinertia · 23-10-2023 10:49AM

Me nerves

thomil · 23-10-2023 11:25AM

How do some people make it through life when they seem so patently incapable of thinking and breathing at the same time? Should have called in sick today...

I know coffee is a curse for me. Or at least certain blends. Definitely kills my sleep. But sometimes it's the only thing that'll get the motor going.

Yesterday was a full day's travelling for me, from 26 degrees and sunny Greece to what felt like 6 degrees and rainy Cork.

"I went to Greece and all I got was a stinking cold."

The next field trip is a weekend on a research vessel in Cork harbour in November ....

What ship are you joining for that? One of the NMI vessels? Apologies for being nosy.

Nice, thanks for the link, @Addmagnet Fair winds & following seas!

Done for the day here, and thank goodness for that!

SuperBowserWorld · 23-10-2023 07:20PM

The news and the rain is pissing me off.

thomil · 23-10-2023 07:30PM

I've stopped watching the news for that very reason. It's getting to a point where it's just too depressing. I'm at the point where I'm actively seeking out cute animal videos, ideally cats, foxes and the like. I'm even beginning to like raccoons and skunks...

I mean, it'll probably turn my skin into a Sumerian tablet if I even try to get close, but what a cat!!!

Gremlinertia · 23-10-2023 09:01PM

That thing is STILL going? I thought that concept had gotten old even while I was still young...

Gremlinertia · 23-10-2023 09:11PM

Wait, a coffee?.

Back on again after a few years break.....jesus wept.....

thomil · 23-10-2023 09:20PM

Ugh, some things just won't go away! I haven't seen any of that since the late 1990s, when the concept premiered back in Germany. I don't think I've ever recovered from the loss of grey matter caused by those first few episodes. Reality TV as a whole can just go away as far as I'm concerned!

23-10-2023 09:47PM

phew.. this morning started out in a panic. HR rang for the new job and they were insisting on a reference from current. It’s just their policy ig, but I’m in a panic anyway cos I haven’t mentioned to the boss I’m planning to maybe head on..!

luckily they took the former sous chef as he worked with me and in the place so phew 😎

wont say anything too soon but I presume this is a very positive sign!

JupiterKid · 23-10-2023 10:00PM

Fingers crossed, Clementine Mushy Sun! 🫰🫰

Sofaside with my OH, watching 1979 horror classic The Fog on the telly. Terrified me as a 9 year old watching it for the first time on TV with my sisters and still very spooky today.

Halloween heroine Jamie Lee Curtis stars along with her mum, Janet Leigh. 🎃🎃🎃

They are lovely and lethal I'd say.

We used to have tom cats when I was a kid, and they didn't get neutered then, so they'd disappear for months and years and come back sitting on the window sil and look just like those. 🤣 huge and fluffy and mad looking. They'd get fed and disappear for further adventures. I was in awe and terrified of them at the same time. Must have been very young.
