    Just said goodbye to my French students. I'm annoyed that some of them forgot their manners and didn't say goodbye :(

    Eek! That dress IS pretty atrocious. Did she make it herself?

    TA : I accidentally bit the side of my tongue hard while sneezing. How?!

    My neighbours starting their building work at half eight this morning.

    I had a late night last, so I'm slightly tired :(

    Does anyone else think this is very early for a weekend? zzzzzz

    Having an early night but tossing and turning for most of the night and feeling more tired than before I went to bed.

    Am I wrong? Maybe I'm the one with the problem

    I go to League of Ireland football every Friday night and I was getting a pre match pizza in Apache Drumcondra. The guy started to take my order than cut me off to answer the phone. I was at the counter before the phone rang so I'm the customer you deal with.

    Later I went back up to get a plastic fork, he was heading to get it but then left me waiting for a few minutes because the phone rang and he took the order. Again, I was there before the phone rang!

    I get that he is busy, I don't think it's right though

    I had my hour long cycle at 9am. Came home, showered & changed; had a coffee and it's almost 12noon and I've still not yet warmed up after my cycle :(

    Had to contend with this scenario this morning. 6 people ie. 2 grandparents a daughter and 3 grandchildren who ALL stand at the till while the daughter pays for 4 items. The grand mother then produces VOUCHERS for some of the daughters items. They then have aCHAT with the cashier who they know well. Meanwhile the rest of us just wish to get out the door as quickly as possible.

    Queue jumpers. We were in Dunnes this morning and as we reached the checkout a woman jumped in ahead of us. I was fairly sure that she was skipping the queue but since she clearly knew the woman that was ahead of us, who was on crutches, we assumed they were together. She went out of her way to make it seem as though they were together. When I clicked that they weren't I pointed out to her that it was a very handy way for her to jump the queue. She apologised but I said 'yeah, sure you are'. Fcuking queue jumping should be a hanging offence.

    When my playstation died I was convinced that Mrs Happy had made it die on purpose.

    If she's like me, she'll threaten it but wouldn't ever do it!

    I bought him a PS4 last year so it's my own fault. Cursing myself now.

    The rapid changes in temperatures, which result in me getting tonsillitis. Again. Which also cause a chain reaction of TAs: I don't like taking antibiotics but I've no choice here => the size of them! I'd need to be a catfish to swallow them comfortably! Having the heating on in May. :mad:

    I think it's mickey money day. "Pay" and the implication that there is some kind of earning phenomenon going on, might be stretching it :P

    Saint Michaels day. Please.
