Other What currently makes your life awesome?

Actually having food and drink. Due to me being a bit reclusive I order everything online. Come to find Waitrose get very busy at Christmas and it all becomes "First come". I was highly pissed by this news, especially as I had no other means of getting food. So I basically had to lock the flat up and bail for two weeks.

I'd literally eaten and drank the place empty. So how nice it was today to get all sorts of posh **** delivered to me. Quail, Partridge etc. My belly is happy.

 

He won't get much for 77 pence.

 

Good luck man, it's about to get real

 

What’s that you say? A garage you’re going to fill with arcade cabs and pinballs?

 

why move? i cleared mine off 2 years ago (shitbags binned me for an early pay off fine) and its the best thing i did, got so much spare cash now i can do what i want. you'd be surprised how quickly you can save now you've no noose around your neck.

 

A 2.5%-ish pay rise.

 

Awesome, with inflation at around 3% you're only just a little bit poorer. Yay!

Honestly, that's not to be sniffed at at the moment.

 

Having a bit of a clear out with some stuff listed here and some on Facebook and Gumtree. A guy from Brazil was interested in a PVR and we arranged for him to come down to me. Turned up in a rather nice Range Rover with his girlfriend but with hardly any English.
So with the help of Google Translate it was decided that a PVR was not want they needed.
A very interesting if quite a difficult meeting.

 

Apologies for the almost non existent sound, but that made me think of this..

 

2.5% of not enough isn't much TBH...

 

When a crap day turns into a nice one.

I had terrible trouble getting to sleep last night. Last time I looked at the clock it was gone 2, and it took me a while to get off. Then I just continually kept waking up. Every hour, on the hour. I got up to pee but it was only 8 am and I still felt exhausted. Eventually I dragged myself up at 11am and put on my Yoda dressing gown. I didn't even have the energy to bother getting dressed.

Then the postman came with two things I needed but wasn't expecting yet. Then Hermes came which I had forgotten about to collect a parcel. Then UPS came with my Aquacooling order that had not even been marked as dispatched. So now I have everything to complete my upgrade with. Too tired to work today (and things will break if I even try) and I have so much going on ATM in and around the flat that it's not funny (bailing for two weeks left everything stuck in time) so I have had to do lots of housework.

Which is good. I could have spent yet another day rotting in bed. Deffo going to stop taking Venlaflaxine. I really don't like it. Back to Citalopram for a while I reckons.

 

My office Secret Santa was travelling and has just come back and handed me a bottle of Haig...

Slightly over the £10 we set, but not going to complian one iota.

 

Is it any good over there? We get an 'Indianised' Haig over here that is pretty horrific. Have to admit, I used to enjoy the TV ads (before they were banned) -- 'Don't be vague, ask for Haig!'

 

No idea yet mate, because I totally didn't add a slug of it to my coffee earlier becuase its 3pm on a friday and im on a con call and not in pub...

 

Oh, I thought you might have had it before. I await the verdict.
