Another Cold, etc.

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 […]

Bad Eating Habits

I am developing — or rather, re-developing — bad eating habits. In my old icky job my working hours were regimented. Coffee breaks were virtually timed to the second, and after stumbling up and down several flights of stairs all morning I’d worked off my lunch time calories before I’d even consumed them. Although I […]

Going Through the Menopause

Yes, that’s right, I’m going through the menopause. Sure, I might be about 25 years too young, what why should that stop someone like myself? How else can you explain the dramatic mood swings I’ve been experiencing today? I woke up fine, felt like bursting into tears every five minutes between 9-11am, felt fine again […]

Not Well

I’m not feeling very well. I have a sore, swollen throat and watery eyes. My nose is congested and dribbly. Please leave sympathy and promises of chocolate.

More Dentistry Work

I’ve been in so much pain I had to have an emergency dentist appointment earlier. Apparently, a deep filling in one of my teeth has caught/damaged the nerve-y stuff and I’ve got to have a root canal treatment done on July 24th. Just the thought of the words “root canal” makes me shudder, but apparently […]

Note to Self re: Storms

Dear Jem, In case you forget sometime in the near future, please let this note serve as a reminder to you. It is not a good idea to go out in the piss-pouring rain in nothing but your pyjamas and a pair of flimsy flip-flops to watch the lightning. Not only are your flip-flops soaked, […]

Dental Work

I had some dental work done this morning. Firstly, it meant I had to get up pre-dinner time (bastards), and secondly I ended up with several sharp objects rammed in my gob. Of course, it is my own fault for eating copious amounts of cappucino fudge bought from The Pink Sugar Mouse and not brushing […]

A General ‘Me’ Update

I figured as the last two posts have been coding related I should probably do a bit of a general update so everybody knows how things are going. That, and my coding posts seem to confuse people.. The most annoying thing at the moment is that I still have my cold. I can’t seem to […]

I Think I’m Dying

I have sniffles and snot and a headache. My muscles have turned to wibbly jelly and my favourite mini cheesecakes from Tesco taste like ..well, nothing. :( I need sympathy because that’ll magically make me better again. Well, it probably won’t, but do it anyway. PS. Hi Rose :) Edit: D’uh! I totally forgot to […]
