In the cot is a good one! That's were I'm at right now looking for a movie. Mrs G conked out..
Very little sleep last night aaaaargh
Still in bed have to get up soon or I'll be late, no early morning walk here today, feeling meh.
First coffee serving me well better not have another too soon
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.
Just off the phone with HR for new job.. this sucks anyway
Just got into bed, again .
Me nerves
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 ....
From the snowcone into the iceberg. No apologies are made for butchering I've just done to that saying
What ship are you joining for that? One of the NMI vessels? Apologies for being nosy.
I believe it's the RV Celtic Explorer.
This article gives some info on what we'll be doing:
Nice, thanks for the link, @Addmagnet Fair winds & following seas!
Done for the day here, and thank goodness for that!
The news and the rain is pissing me off.
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...
Bored panda is my go to
Allow me to offer you .... the Pallas cat!
So fluffy 😻😻😻
I mean, it'll probably turn my skin into a Sumerian tablet if I even try to get close, but what a cat!!!
Jaysis two of those and I don't need to put heating oil in 🤔
Kitchen table....soon to be suppin a coffee......herself and the three chicks are watching that shite called Big Brother...biggest load of horse **** ever to be on tv...so i just stay out here in the kitchen..
That thing is STILL going? I thought that concept had gotten old even while I was still young...
Wait, a coffee?.
Back on again after a few years break.....jesus wept.....
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!
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!
Fingers crossed, Raichu! 🫰🫰
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.
Yeah but how are the cats??
Joking, me limbs is crossed for you.
