That's better.
How is your weekend going?

Today I am taking my wife for lunch to a local Italian restuarant to celebrate it being a year to the day since I proposed and six months to the day since we got married.

Then this evening I am going to see The Levellers at Brixton Academy.

Alt: Tea or coffee?

Fair to middling at the moment.
Had my nephew over for the night. We're making brownies this morning.

Today my dad is popping down for a visit and I hope to get some exercise in somehwhere.

Woo for the Levellers. Hope to see them next year some time.

Alt: Coffee but a nice cup of tea at night.

A pretty good weekend so far.
Almost all of the prezzies done, I think I've found a car to buy and found an insurance company that actually talks to potential customers in English! (I'll regale you with the 'Saga of CP and the Insurance companies' if ever an appropriate QOTW comes up). G/F and Emily came over to my place last night for a home-cooked chinese meal and we all watched 'On stranger tides' on the big screen.
So far, so good!

alt: Tea when at home but coffee when out & about - if it's fresh ground.

Alright Battered
Not great tbh, spent 4 hours in A&E with my friend last night, after a wine glass was broken, and the stem left facing upwards, which he stood on. Straight through his trainer, into his foot, looked quite painful.

Today I'll be seeing a friend, watching football, and playing on the 360.

Horrific today
I ran out of tablets so went to the after hours GP and

she went "NO, NOT GIVING THEM TO YOU"
and I was like "WAHHHH, I NEED THEM TO LIVE"
and she's like "GO SOMEWHERE ELSE, LOSER"
and I was like "LISTEN, I AM ON THEM FOR PAIN. ONLY PAIN. IF I WAS ON THEM FOR ADDICTION THEN I WOULD BE ON A HELL OF A LOT MORE AND SCORING THEM OFF THE STREETS"
and she was like "NO I DO NOT BELIEVE YOU"
and I was like "LOOK AT MY SCARS, LOOK AT MY OLD PACKETS OF TABLETS"
and she was like "SOD OFF"
and I was like "Oh shit oh shit oh shit oh shit, I'm fucked, seriously fucked. I can't survive without them. Let's say I am on them for addiction, what happens if I suddenly stop for a day?"
and she's like "seasure, possible heart attack, anxiety, horrific pain"
and I'm like "OH SHIT, I'M GOING TO GO THROUGH ALL THAT ON NO FAULT OF MY OWN"
and she's like "HAVE YOU TRIED TO COME OFF THEM?"
and I was like "NO, I HAVE THEM BECAUSE I HAVE EXTREME PAIN, I NEED THEM. I MIGHT AS WELL QUIT MY JOB AND GO ON SICK PAY AND LIVE OFF THE STATE IF I DO"
and then she was like "OK, OK, JUST THIS ONCE GONZ, JUST THIS ONCE".
and then I was like "OH SHIT OH SHIT OH SHIT, My life really sucks in so many respects, is it really worth the pain of carrying on? Is it really worth me being such a drain on everything. I'm going to have this for the rest of my life, there is nothing else, there are people like sue marsh who has more or less the same thing as me and this explaining how shit being ill is"

But then I got'n'took my tablets and saw a dog, so it's OK now.

I went to a party on Friday night
and a christmas dinner/party kind of thing last night and had a nice burger out this morning/afternoon with lovely friends and their baby (which, surprisingly, didn't smell and my friends know me well enough not to ask if I want to hold it so it was fine). then I came home.

On the way home I felt weird, couldn't work out what it was. Realised that it was because I was not stressed.

I think. Although one wasn't technically a christmas dinner. Then there has been a couple of 'going out for breakfasts'

how many are you up to, now?

Chicken Donnor, but not using a minced chicken or

- Onion, Tarmrto
- Taziki
- A few chips
- A really nice flatbread.
