    I can't talk without pain. The throat gremlins got me :(

    Work is going to be so much fun...

    EDIT: My sister just told me that she dreamt that I died. Oh dear.

    I broke a mirror this morning. My immediate reaction was to throw it in the bin and pretend it didn't happen. Now the superstitious side of me (that waves at magpies like a mad yolk) is starting to freak out.

    *throws salt everywhere*

    You'll be graaaaand. All it means is that you need a new mirror.

    I'm prepared eat my laptop* if it turns out you henceforth have bad luck for seven years, if that helps at all?




    *yeah, I might not actually eat my laptop

    Left the door "closed" but on the latch so I could come back in. Closed the glass porch door, or so I thought. Came back "you left the door open again, but osky sat there looking at it and didn't move". Ah bless...

    The lady in the petrol station gave me extra collecting stamps, so now I can buy wine glasses already with them... everyone is so nice!

    Cousin: "Well I wouldn't notice it off you."

    I love bitter jealous people. :rolleyes:

    Sounds like your mam is proud of your hard work and weight loss, though. :)

    I can't stick him. The second the rain stops I'm out of here because he's been giving out and laughing at everyone since he came in. Jesus.

    She is yeah. We're getting along a lot better lately thankfully. :)

    He must have a fun life. The people must flock to spend time in his company.

    Sounds charming. He's the one who should leave, not you.

    YUSSSS!! Lions RULE!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,401 ✭✭✭✭x Purple Pawprints x


    I know that but he's also the type of person who outstays his welcome. He's really delightful as you can tell. :rolleyes:

    I went for a 7k walk instead of sitting listening to bull. :p

    I have a date in 15mins, I look horrid and am dying for a pee.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,401 ✭✭✭✭x Purple Pawprints x


    It's my brother's birthday today and he's after losing his iPod.. I feel so sorry for him because he's never without it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,331 ✭✭✭Ilyana 2.0


    Hope the date goes well Pixie, and don't be minding your cousin PP, silly man!

    One of the lads at work swapped a few shifts with me for next week, which means I can now visit J. The one perk to a sucky day so far :)

    Thanks, makes me feel better. I think you might be right. I spent hours at the beach and appear to have come out with only 4 tiny patches of sunburn. (I'm a ginger, applying and reapplying and reapplying sun cream only does so much. :P )

    I actually enjoyed my day at the beach today. :D Normally I hate the combination of wet skin and sand, but today I didn't mind. I even went for a few swims in the (freezing) water to wash off the sand and continue sunbathing (a loose term given the amount of sun cream I used!).

    I'll be flying to England next week. Its my first time on a plane. Im a bit nervous. I dont know what to expect and I know I will end up getting lost in Dublin airport. I think I might follow people of the bus. Im bringing a sat-nav for walking around England but that might draw attention to me and I might get robbed or attacked. I have no sense of direction at all.

    What do others do when it comes to bringing toiletries. They allow a miserable 100ml size bottle. I dont mind going with small bottles but im hoping to buy some things but it seems as if I wont be able to bring it back. Its unfair, are they really strict.

    You'll be grand! It can be a bit unnerving for anyone flying on their own for the first time; it must be really daunting when it's your first time on a plane ever!

    Just look up your flight on the big departure screens and follow the signs to your gate. If you get lost, there are staff in the airport whose job is to assist passengers so keep an eye out for them. :)

    Yes, they are strict about liquids but anything you buy after clearing airport security on your return can be brought on the plane.

    Is it a job interview you're going to?

    Booked flights home to Ireland for summer holidays, yay!

    But like, ten minutes after booking them I realised that one of my old school friends said like, yesterday, that she would be in London that week. Totally forgot. I has the dumb.

    Yeah im going over for an interview and spending a day at the company to see how I get on. I must be mad but at least it shows im interested in the job and I really am.

    Sounds promising... best of luck with it! :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,247 ✭✭✭Tigger99


    HardLuckWoman enjoy your trip :)

    There are 2 terminals in Dublin airport so check your ticket to see which you are going to. Your bus probably stops at both, ask your driver. I made the mistake last week of getting Off at the wrong terminal do it was a wee bit of a walk :)

    If you are just going for the day I'm guessing you only have hand luggage. If you are just bringing hand luggage you can only bring a clear sealable bag 20cm by 20cm and max of 100ml bottles in it. Doesn't matter if u get more in duty free or not :)

    Best of luck with the interview, you''ll fly it :)

    I'm still irritated by what my cousin said :o

    Try and put it out of your head. You've been doing brilliantly. I was a bit irritated myself earlier when a good friend said 'oh my god, you got so big!'. Thinking rationally now I know its normal, I'm 22 weeks pregnant and she seemed excited for me about my bump.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,401 ✭✭✭✭x Purple Pawprints x


    True. He's an asshole anyways. My brother noticed it as well. Just remembered he also insulted my hair and asked me "what sort of a f**king colour" I had in it. Jesus what sort of relatives have I got?! :eek:

    Hope pregnancy is treating you well Roesy. :) I find myself looking at babies and toddlers lately and wanting one. I always knew I did but lately it's like my ovaries glow when I see one. :o

    My brother found his iPod in a ditch on the way home from the pub! :D

    I was babysitting an 8 year old tonight and watched Wreck It Ralph with him. Loved it! :D
