Feel like crap mates. Achey, brain fog, bleurgh. Managed to persuade my partner to have the toddler. Probably need to do a COVID test but we don’t have any left
hugs mate. i really do believe you should find someone you can talk to about this. perhaps even just a similar level colleague? or a trusted friend?
Don’t feel 100% but still in the office. Last week in this role before I move to a different office so I need to get a lot of loose ends tidied up.
DJ set went well on Friday night, hopefully going to do a bit more of it. Absolutely love playing records.
This post paid for by PROF$.
Booked today off in the event of England winning. Alas. It’s fine though as I didn’t drink a thing yesterday and wasn’t planning to unless we won so feel good.
Got some music admin to do today and rehearsing tonight for the relatively new thing I’ve joined. The drummer is from
Ulrika Spacek, known him for about 10 years now and we’ve actually been in the same band and different times so it’s nice to play with him finally. Excited to get gigging as the songs are great and she’s got an awesome voice
Oh, and maybe on for the “things nobody has thought about for ages”, but I saw a paperboy on my way to work earlier. Who knew they were even a thing any more?
Maybe I should start a thread about local newspapers and paper rounds
morning everyone, i find myself sitting in the workington mcdonalds after getting one of the best muffins ive had in years after being at [redacted] to get [redacted]. going to finish writing up this document and fire it over to be reviewed before heading to meet my nephew and sister for a wee lunch play date.
Pal has directed me to a nice cafe and I feel a bit sick but hopefully a sausage stottie will sort me out. Train home later, fun times!!!
tbf you couldn’t have picked a nicer day for it.
Day off today as it was the GF’s birthday yesterday. Turned out we were both too tired and hungover from being out for a meal on Friday, then having people round til gone 1am on Saturday night / yesterday morning, so didn’t drink and went to bed on the final whistle.
Trying to figure out what I can use this lovely day for now, other than laundry and potentially a bit of Slay the Spire when my GF goes to take her mum for an appointment.
I’m in. Watching Law and Order whilst having my chai…the cast for this episode is something else:
Alfred Molina
Angela Lansbury
Bradley Cooper
Bebe Nuewirth (Lillith )
A bit hungover.
Just keeping it green atm
Morning all
+ had some news about work, that has come as a relief.
+ working from home for the rest of the day
- had to cycle into work just to have an informal investigation meeting with one of my team
- listening into some online training I missed last week - and it’s kinda cringey as nobody is joining in with the group work
Have replied to one email (saying 'sorry I’m on leave that day) that should do for a morning’s work
Mild inconveniences:
- Petrol light came on last night and the two petrol stations I went to were closed. Going to have to do a specific trip to one today whilst worrying it’s going to run out.
- Dog has got into the habit of not wanting to come near me to be put on her line when we’re leaving the park. Was in a rush yesterday so risked going leadless down a quiet cul-de-sac to my house which was stressful and not as straightforward as I’d assumed as she didn’t want to come in the house until I lured her with a trail of loads of treats. Was thinking about what if she’d got run over when trying to sleep last night.
- Thought I was over my mild cold but feel worse this morning. Got a busy week so would prefer to be well tbh.
wow that’s racist as hell, fuck her!
- Back to bed
- Power through
how do you not buy chocolate when you go to the shop? Is there a special trick?
Spent several hours yesterday working on a job application and submitted it. Got an email today saying due to unforeseen circumstances the position is no longer vacant
Just seen the weather forecast - driving home during a thunderstorm? Can’t wait!
Lactose intolerance helps
Morning, another commute to WFH as the trains weren’t running last night.
Feels like a fairly quiet day, so hopefully I can finish up early and tackle the mess that is the house. The cat is currently in a mood with me after I sneezed whilst she was sleeping on my lap.
