Morning!
It's been dead around here the past few days. And work's been really quiet. Therefore I've been SO bored and have been forced to do unusual things, like real-life stuff.

And!

New year!
may it be happier than yesterday was :p Dayum my new year was so good Im going to be feeling it for weeks :D

Although I did manage to multilate myself pretty badly while making the new year fancy schmancy dinner. :(

How did you multilate youself?
The news said it might sleet here later on. I hope it doesn't too much and fuck up the trains. I'm meant to be going away for the weekend and a leaf falling on the tracks seems to do enough damage! If there was sleet/snow it would feel like the end of the world.

It was the worst cooking day of my life! Slashed my arm with a knife, then I stabbed the palm of my hand with it theeen I chopped into my thumb (I hate onions.. slippery bastards!)

And finally, the height of my stupidity caused me to try to blend hot soup in the blender, so it exploded and I got a steam burn on my arm, second degree it looks like. And then the blister popped on the table which was a bit nasty. So it all looks a bit horrific! Im glad it's not somewhere i have to see it all the time or the hangover would have been worse :p

That sounds like all kinds of painful. At least you got a decent blister out of it. As gross as there are when they burst, there's always something quite satisfying about it.

Good morning himjimaling!

Mind you, I've got bugger all work to do, so I'm going to rape some computers upstairs for bits for my desktop.

I had 4 people in my office last on Monday (usually it's just me) and I couldn't wait to get them out.

Now it's just me, a pint of coffee and Dire Straits.

Hello!

I've been working so I haven't been able to come on here so much. But I have a lovely lovely day off today and thought I'd pop on here before heading off to do some shopping.

As I'm with Mr VP at the mo, I'm going to Oxford Street to do it properly!

What have I missed? How has everyone been?

Rather you than me on Oxford Street. I think that place needs to have a fast lane. I always end up getting stuck behind people dragging their feet who bash my legs with heavy bags.

I know but I really need some more clothes. Looks like it might not happen now though because I'm meeting a friend for lunch and need to be back by 4 in order to put a flipping parking voucher in the car.
My life is so rock and roll.

I expect that things will perk up again next week anyway. It's bound to be quiet without Kaol going on about death and Al being pervy.

This is my last weekday off until I go back to work. Not good. I've hardly got anything done with my time off which is a bit depressing. Mind you I've very nearly got a skiing holiday organised for later in the month which makes me all of the happy.

Seems to have killed the thread again... But in other news I am off to have see family in Norfolk. This truly has been one of the busiest Christmasses ever for me. And then back to work for me next week! I am going to need a holiday to recover from the holiday I think...

Hello everyone... *cough, splutter, and sneezles*

I have the flu, so am thoroughly miserable and bored now! However, it does mean lots of time for fluffy snuggles with my myriad of animals, so yay for that! Am hoping to get back to work on Monday, germs permitting, then the New Year will really begin.
