long day?

Long month, man.
You know when you have a week off work and you go back and all you can think is "I cannot be fucking bothered"? I started my current job a year ago today and have hit the wall of malaise head on!

Don't get me wrong; I like the job and get on well with my colleagues (except the one who hates my flatmate
and wants him to get pig lurgy), I'm just finding it really hard to stay motivated.

Too bad
Hols for me, from today, until Sunday 16th! From both jobs! Tee hee hee!

Having a fine bottle of wine right now then intending to sleep - a very lot - imminently.

Life swap?
I can have holiday and wine and you can answer emails in French. Though you must swap back before the end of the month because if anything stops me going to Paris I will fucking CRY.

No.
Because I can't speak French and because I'll be at Headingley Friday - Tuesday watching cricket and I'm not missing that for anything.

And two of my mates are staying at Disappointed Manor for the duration so they'd be a tad surprised to see you.

Ah bugger. On to plan B then
"Hello, boss? I can't come to work today, I have scurvy."

Also
I get to play with my dogs for a few days - they've been a bit neglected, sadly.

Big big walk and a doggy swim in the canal tomorrow, I'd say.

Doggies?
Do tell. I likes doggies.

Flatcoats
Here they are:-

Not the best photo because Mr Brown has some slobber on his snout.

Oh, look at that face
*melts into a puddle of fluffeh*

They belong to me, my Sister and her partner.
And they are smashers.

Brown is a big, in control, calm, placid boy.

Bootsy (the black one) is just a silly boy who wants to be fussed over all the time. It's hard to get a good photo of him as he is always squirming.

Mr Brown and Bootsy. 10 points for getting the origin of the names.

Er... I want to say Reservoir Dogs for one and am not sure for the other.
Can I use Google?
( Maladicta, Tue 4 Aug 2009, 21:17, Reply)

Not that
Feel free to Google.

It's music.

I wanted to call Mr Brown Norman after Chris named Bootsy Bootsy...
( The Disappointed Caravanner of the year, Tue 4 Aug 2009, 21:30, Reply)

James Brown?

( Maladicta, Tue 4 Aug 2009, 21:44, Reply)

Well done.
And Bootsy Collins - the world's second best bassist (after Norman Watt-Roy, hence my short lived insistance on calling Mr Brown Norman).

Chris, my sister's partner, is a friend of Craig Charles and the dogs get mentioned occasionally on his 6 Music funk show.
( The Disappointed Caravanner of the year, Tue 4 Aug 2009, 21:50, Reply)

A winner is me!
Also, even more win for knowing Craig Charles. I was never allowed to watch Red Dwarf when I was growing up because my father didn't like him :( fail.
( Maladicta, Tue 4 Aug 2009, 22:04, Reply)

6 Music, Saturday evening.
Got to be listened to.

I've met him a couple of times through Chris and he's a good geezer.

Bedtime for me - very big, long sleep. Might join you for a bit tomorrow evening.

Toodle-pip.

I get to go to manchester tomorrow.
woo. The Paris of Lancashire
( willenium Fist bump for verification, Tue 4 Aug 2009, 20:20, Reply)

Woo and yay!
Just like Paris, with less French people and more carjackers.
( Maladicta, Tue 4 Aug 2009, 20:24, Reply)

Wash your mouth out son.
Manchester is in Cheshire. Or Namibia. Or somewhere.

I don't care but I'm from Lancashire and that foul sewer of depradation is NOT in my name.

But you've moved to Leeds
And I lived in South London for a couple of years.

These things are acceptable. Manchester is not.

no sense arguing on the internets
( willenium Fist bump for verification, Tue 4 Aug 2009, 20:48, Reply)

Absolutely not
Arguing is the sole preserve of daytime Jeremy Kyle B3TA.

Take some bottled water with you. And some strong mints.

The water and the mints
Were to get the taste out of your mouth when you left.

Its ON be-yatch

( willenium Fist bump for verification, Tue 4 Aug 2009, 21:45, Reply)

Do it!
Then come back and appreciate Leeds all the more.

I was born in Lancashire but I have to accept that Leeds is the best city in the North.

Maybe even the world.

Portland, Oregon comes close, but you're in a good place.
