Blogging for over 25 years
Read about my battles with Pre-Menstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD), my mental health, surviving both childhood sexual abuse and a 12 year relationship plagued with emotional abuse, as well personal projects / challenges, and anything vaguely Jem-related.
My Mum mentioned to me this evening that I never did follow up my entry on the swans and she’s right. I realised that I’ve not followed up on any of my entries for months, barely discussing anything but superficial crap and the Internet. So here I am, telling you how things are with me…… read full entry »
There’s nothing like three quarters of a bottle of white wine on a Sunday evening to relax with, whilst watching the season finale of Grey’s Anatomy. All I need now is a huge bar of chocolate or a tub of bloody gorgeous ice cream (and I have neither, darn). It’s lucky I don’t suffer from… read full entry »
I am an in such a fucking foul mood this evening. So many stupid things… I spent part of this afternoon re-doing work that I spent almost three hours yesterday polishing off (don’t ask). My face broke out in spots down one side last weekend and they won’t piss off. I look fifteen again. I… read full entry »
So, as the doctor prescribed I’ve been taking a brisk walk every day. Except, I have a confession… I’ve discovered that I am that bloody unfit that I am struggling to keep it brisk for over 5 minutes, let alone 15. I can only try and guess at how the hell I used to do… read full entry »
My 18-monthly depo checkup/3-monthly jab was this morning. I was particularly looking forward to this after the doctor had to Google the procedure and the nurse left my arse exposed to the world last time. Fortunately this doctor — although obviously new — was more clued up than the last guy. He started asking me… read full entry »
I’ve had such a stupidly shitty day. I can’t rant about it because of, ooh, just the small matter of privacy that I discussed in my previous post. Is that classed as irony? Safe to say that I managed to humiliate myself more than once by not asking the right questions and not paying enough… read full entry »
Picture the scene.. I’m just back from work, lounging on my sofa and looking at some boob porn (ok, it’s just my latest Bravissimo catalogue really) and all of a sudden this male voice appears in my head. Wait, no, it’s not in my head… It wasn’t God trying to communicate (he’d only be telling… read full entry »
I’ve got another bloody cold. I’m hoping it won’t affect my testicles this time. None the less I’m playing it safe and drinking lots of orange juice (vitamin c ftw.) Talking of “ftw”, I’m thinking of making this ftw (that’s ‘for the win’) t-shirt my next syswear purchase. I think it’s only fair that after… read full entry »
1. Take one bottle of white wine 2. Pour generously into large glass 3. Add hilarious show, Mock the Week in this case. 4. Laugh wildly. Result: woken neighbours and sore ribs from laughing so bloody loud. Alcoholism is a pretty good cure for stress though, I have to say. It’s not like me to… read full entry »
I’ve finally managed to sign up to one of those online DVD rental things. I kept telling myself I would and not getting round to it (story of my life) so I feel like I achieved something by doing so. Anyway, now that I’ve signed up and lovefilm.com have given me a funky 2 week… read full entry »
