Yesterday I decided to do something I swore I would never do.
I have decided to purchase a small tv/dvd for my bedroom so I can spend my weekends watching Father Ted, black and white movies and eating chocolate in bed. I think I might buy one of those croched bed jackets to wear in pale pink or yellow.

What have you done recently that you swore blind you would never do.

I got drunk on a Friday
I hate doing that, it ruins the weekend because I feel shit all day saturday and then it's sunday. I fucking hate sundays.

after feeling knackered and shit all last week
I was adamant to myself that I wouldn't stay up late this weekend just gone, and would get plenty of sleep. Didn't happen, so now I'm knackered again. Feel alright though, so that's something.

I did the same thing last night.
I was cooking and doing chores until half nine and didn't sleep til half eleven even though I swore I'd be good this week. Considering I'm usually in bed by nine o'clock it was a late one. Stupid hyperactive brain.

I keep insisting to myself that I'll go to bed earlier during the week
ends up being midnight every night.
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Tue 26 Jan 2010, 9:33, Reply)

I aim for 9pm
but it's only half an hour before daughter's gone to bed and I never feel like I have much time to myself, so I stay up later and get tired and crabby because of it. I've always needed at least eight hours to get by without feeling tired. I spent so, so long getting far too little sleep - now that I've sorted it out I feel so much better it's almost like I'm a new person, so I try to keep on top of it when I can.

You're still young enough to get by with little sleep.
Enjoy it while you can.
( girlinthehole, Tue 26 Jan 2010, 9:31, Reply)

it's a family thing
so I'll probably always be fine with little sleep.

I still like sleep though :-)

Me too:
I get up at 4:30 every morning so always plan to get to bed by 10 PM (2200 to you 24 hour types) but never make it until after 11 then I bitch about being too tired.

Don't worry,
they were evidently 'asking for it', you probably done them a favour to be honest.

That's what they said.
AND PEOPLE WONDER WHY I'VE A SICKENING VENDETTA AGAINST SOCIETY?

Just because I was raised as a girl by hillbillies near Devizes. I never had a normal start in life.

WHY WON'T ANYONE LOVE ME?

I can count the number of normal people I know on one hand.

Yes, six people.

My brother's head office is down there.
He had to live there whilst he was training for his job, and got to know some of the inbreds from the office, including one chap, who had a cut-out tabloid headline taped to the side of his monitor that read 'TUG-MASTER'. It transpired that not only were the entire staff compulsive onanists - they talked about little else.

Most days he would be greeted with 'Oi mush! Oi've gat s'm roight good paaarnos' - they could not believe that he didn't spend every night wanking himself unconscious as they did.

They save their wanking for the evenings in Devizes.

You swore you would never murder whores. Of course you did.

Get a bedpan and a refrigerator for your bedroom and you'll almost never need to get out of bed.
You'll just need to get someone to stock the refrigerator and clean the bedpan.
