Andy, glad to hear that the foot has turned out to be not too serious. Ligament stuff can be quite painful though so you have my sympathies.
As to that watch-phone..... When I got my current 'phone which flips open like Captain Kirk's I said that the only upgrade paths from there was an implant in my neck like Togusa or a chunky wrist-worn thing like Blake's..... I do not want to upgrade again, I do not want to upgrade again. I do not want to upgrade again...
Had a day of training on a complex reporting software package today. By lunchtime the blancmange that fills the space my brain should be was dribbling out of my ears. I must be doing something right because my boss seems to think I have the measure of the software. Hooray for the "poke it a bit and see what happens approach to learning".

Whoops, the bulb in the church projector has blown.

Man. I hear projector bulbs cost a fortune. I hope its sorted, bud.
Was watching a Patrick Swayze movie I've never heard of before last night called Steel Dawn. It was surprisingly good for B movie quality budget. Swayze carried it.
Also watched A Christmas Story too,

I'm off work today due to a lack of work (but I'm back in tomorrow) so I'm taking the opportunity to tie up a few loose ends on some of the things I've been doing recently like reading books and comic books, finishing off my Magnum Season 1 DVD boxset and general stuff that I do on my computer.

I seem to have hit a bizarre wall of fatigue which I cannot explain. Weird. Already, I long for the weekend, which is also weird because I'm not having a bad time this week or anything. -Ralph It's bound to catch up with you, all the new stuff going on, previous stresses. That might have something to do with it, now I come to think of it. I crashed out at 8:30pm last night, which just isn't me. -Ralph |

I leave at 5 tomorrow morning. I didn't even get the stuff I planned to do in the UK done, never mind make any progress with the astonishing amount of work I have to get done in the coming weeks.
Six days just isn't enough. See you guys on the flip side!

I have a friend who married a lass from the Czech Republic.
She was referred to by some as his mail order eastern European bride.......

Good grief I am tired and stressed this week. I have been waning steadily all week. I think I am thoroughly looking forward to the weekend and a couple of quiet days at home.

5am kick off this morning, very little sleep this afternoon and a stressed, ill toddler. Lord, I'm tired.....
To make it worse my stomach isn't ok at the moment :-( very uncomfortable, very painful at night

Sorry to hear that Phil.
Spent today doing a bit of shopping, taking Susie for a stroll combined with drawing and lettering WWE as well as doing the art for a 1 page TF story idea I have had rattling around and best of all it's in TMUK continuity proper - albeit a far-flung corner...

Work team meal out this evening. I tend to avoid work related socialising whenever possible but I think I got through it ok.
Pretty shattered. I think recent events are indeed catching up with me. Tomorrow evening I plan to have a few relaxing liquers while watching some tat cartoons to unwind. A weekend of catching up on reading is also in order. No rushing about.

Sanding skirting-board. It is a task that should be reserved as punishment for murderers and tax men!!!

Had a crappy, crappy day at work today.
So I'm having a bottle of Crabbies now in an attempt to unwind and de-stress.

I was happy to find that Sainsburys 'Taste the Difference' Irish Cream Liqueur was down to £10. Quorn and beer battered chips in the oven. A lazy DVD evening awaits.
Crabbies is nice though rather sweet. One or two does fine.

I have had an .... interesting... week this week, culminating in a morning that I would categorise as "not good". I have come home this evening however to put my feet up, enjoy a quiet bottle of beer and perhaps watch Colditz later on before I head to my bed.
A quiet weekend calls I think, but I have some books lying around to be read, some television shows to be watched and some fan-fiction to be worked on. The perfect prescription for an enjoyable quiet weekend I think.
