I thought it was made up..

..but it's true!

Dull

Hmmm, not been a very exciting weekend so far. Had a bit of a dull day yesterday, and today the highlight has been chucking two bin bags full of rubbish from my room -i didn't think i had that much stuff!

Still, at least i can console myself with the fact that i've just bought Monty Python's Holy Grail and Life of Brian. I think you can guess what i'll be watching tonight as i have house to myself...

Civilisation

I'm back from my holiday, which seems to have gone rather quickly, but at least I have one more working day off work :) In case anyone was actually interested in what I have been up to, I've been to my parents, been on a course in that London, been clubbing in Stafford (everyone has to try it once!), seen my gorgeous nephew, had my first driving lesson in over four years, and watched (thanks to my dad) lots of horse racing. At least when the folks went to bed I could watch Sky (for that read I watched the music channels!)

What has been going on in York since I've been away, a murder and a stabbing in a couple of days?

Of course, the great John Peel has died. I know a lot of people have said it, but he really will be a great loss.

Now back to my beer, as I'm allowed to drink properly again as my dad is a good 200 miles away!

Holiday!!

Had a good night last night, although it seems that when i go drinking with one person, we do very silly things, for instance pushing each other off the kerb (and you a manager!)

Now for my packing, buying baby clothes (don't worry, they're for my nephew, i haven't suddenly got myself a baby, and then apparently i'm having a few beers and a takeaway. As long as i get up for my train tomorrow, i don't mind getting tipsy, i'm going to have to be good for the next couple of weeks ;)

Nearly there

One day to go, and then i'm on holiday (well i'm technically on holiday from Sunday as that is when i actually go away) for two whole weeks!

I can't wait as i'm so knackered, but at least i'm going away on a high note. Got good job news at work which should keep me very busy for a couple of years by the sounds of it, and i'm going on a work piss-up tomorrow night.

Funny

Shite

I've been told that i waffle on a bit too much, so i'll try not to do that :p

Well i skipped possibly 48 hours of Lindsay bashing. I'm pissed off, in fact i'm majorly pissed off. I hate office politics, and until a few months ago we didn't have any, now we have lots. Oh, and if someone says pro-active to me, i may have to hurt them.

I need my fucking holiday now.

Hope i didn't go on too long...

Pathetic

It seems that from 4:30pm yesterday, the Lindsay bashing season started in earnest. It's amazing what accusations can happen, how they came about i've no idea, but it seems that i'm just not allowed male friends anymore without some people thinking there's something going on. For fucks sake, just because i'm single does not mean i'm going to throw myself at anyone. I have some taste you know.

Think i'm just going to hide in the house by myself tonight, just in case anyone else fancies having a pop at me. It seems to be very popular at the moment.

Good News

My work have finally decided that we should work to flexitime as from January. Just think, i could get to work for 10 and not worry :)

Brrr

Is it me, or did the weather just suddenly get cold? All i know is that this means i have to get myself a new coat, as my old one completely drowns me. I just need those sewn in mittens and i would look like a little girl who was trying to "grow into" her coat.

Ah, more money to spend again, joy.

Countdown

Two weeks today until i go on holiday (you can really tell i'm looking forward to it, and i'm knackered can't you?)
