Raining_again

I just know that either my holiday will be cancelled or i'll end up in birmingham a&e on my holiday.... would be just typical.... I looked it up online (maybe a bad idea) but if it gets into the nerves of my eye i'll have to be put on intravenous antibiotics... god love anyone who has to try and get a line into my blood because my veins are knackered lol I should really start playing the lottery.... the amount of misfortune I've had is 1 in a million so maybe the same rule applies :p

I've got a bad eye infection.... urgent care doc was nearly about to send me to the specialist eye hospital but I insisted my eyes are normally like that! (they don't work in synch ever thanks to squint/squint surgery) so I've been given anti biotics and eye drops. I feel generally pretty poor, my lungs feel inflammed and sore, i've got a weird plasma scab inside my ear and an ulcer in my nose... Yaaay I feel great lol. Supposed to be going on holiday on monday but met office has issued an orange warning for monday morning so we might not even get flying.....again (last time was an ash cloud!!) starting to think i'm cursed!

I've been really down for a few reasons lately, and lost the plot with my diet. Just so many reasons... but the funny thing is... the food doesn't make me feel better afterwards. I don't even really enjoy it anymore... its just a compulsion... this is where I'm starting to see that this is a mental problem now and not a case of just enjoying eating crap.. I'm going on holiday on monday - thursday, then i'm going back on my shakes, as they need used up. See how I go from there. Good thing about the holiday is I won't be sitting around with nothing to do, so I probably won't be eating junk for the sake of it... but it nearly all will be convenience food. I need to sort myself out and just eat 3 meals a day!

is this a one up game or something? lol anyway..... there are gales forecast over Northern Ireland on Monday......and I have to fly on Monday morning!!! GAH!

tea contains more caffeine than coffee does...

inverness is awesome, don't you b00h inverness mister!!!! =P

god thats crazy... i paid nearly 900 for mine (same modelish) and its got an i5 m560. The i7's were stratospherically expensive back in Dec/Jan!

When you've had a terrible day, what's the first thing you reach for? Mines for the teabags and kettle. Something lovely and reassuring about a nice cup of tea.

ohh thats a nice pink, dark and manly pink, hahaha. I could imagine it suiting a swarthy skinned fella like you!

yeah i think serebii's case would annoy me the most...!

Just as an FYI, its not always tripe.... but it does tend to be an easy excuse for a lot of lazy people. There is a VERY small minority who are affected by drug related weight gain

the best thing I ever did was breaking away from my old friends and actually having to cope and make new friends. although it never feels it at the time

I usually can't "hold my water" (as the saying goes) about these kind of things. I am by nature a very open book which is a curse most of the time! I usually have to tell them before i go mad :p

I feel exactly the same.. I've been totting up an idea of how much my living expenses would be if I had a mortgage for a 75k house... and with that, car and basic amenities, I'm looking at around 950 of my 1100 pay. That's based on no emergencies, extra petrol or extra anything happening each month!! And a 75k house is by no means much either. If I had to have a new car (obviously on finance) even the cheapest option would take me well out of my means... I was looking into applying for a job in the place I work. As its 24 hour they have evening staff in and I know the guys would definitely consider me (its a different "company" as such so I would still have to apply)... but its like.. do I want to sell my soul to the grind?

My Fitness Pal is an excellent FREE tool to count your calories. They also have apps for the iPhone, Android, Blackberry and Windows phone

if you aren't able to engage with them they are either a boring shit or they just aren't that interested in you... Most people will make the effort to try and find some kind of common ground to talk about if they want to talk to the person

i can't even do one proper press up... I'm building myself up to it by using suspension training and step bench/knees. One day I'll be able to do ittt! I can do about 40 sit ups! I like doing them on a yoga ball as it has a good support for my back, and enables me to do them properly without injuring myself or wearing out my joints before my tummy muscles even ache!

I have to say anyone who will provide a pet a loving home is not doing wrong. I just am very wary of people who breed dogs and sell them on for ridiculous amounts of money. When I went to the rescue place there was countless dogs there, pedigrees and "fighting" dogs that people had obviously just abandoned, and that kind of thing makes me really sad. There are enough dogs and cats in the world looking for a home without people purposely breeding animals who can end up being unwanted and staved off to a rescue centre.

its a bit of a funny time of the year for people trying to look after themselves.... we've gone past the holiday phase so no one wants to be "beach sexy", and its still a little early to try and get into the dress/suit for christmas. As well as the weather starting to get a bit poo, people are losing the will to keep at it. It's almost like a constant waiting game for the next occasion to fit into clothes for...

he does that when hes sober :p

I am floating in and around the 18 stone mark. Still having too many problems... Trying to even maintain my weight while facing unstable blood sugars/health problems/psoriasis coming back/moderate depression is quite hard... I went to see a podiatrist who diagnosed me with plantar fasciitis and because i've had it so long its likely to have advanced to a stage where steroid injections may be needed (in ma feets). Which will again probably interfere with my weight. Unbelievably frustrating when you are in the right frame of mind for both eating and exercise, and not only is the weight not shifting, but my feet are being destroyed... Gr. This is getting to the point where I fall off the wagon again, and I really just CAN'T do it again. The 2.5 stone i've lost has been such work, they've literally come off pound by freakin pound.. i should be losing insane amounts with the weight I am, fucking medication...which I also forgot to take GAH

aw he looks lovely Well done you for rescuing an animal rather than buying an overpriced pedigree

I've noticed my dad going that way, seems that pigheadedness comes with age (in his case anyway) I love him and I hate having to limit conversation but its better that than constantly fighting!

They generally won't operate on painless ones though (unless of course there is other outstanding medical reasons to get rid of them)
