i rather resent that the drugs i'm on have made me put on about half a stone. thanks for letting me know that Wii Fit.

Must. Eat. Less.

hai thar

well, drugs seem to be working a little. I've had days where i've been able to y'know do stuff. They do make me sleep a lot though, had to give up going to bed at 1am. Strangely i''ve ended up getting up early as well. for me to be up at this hour on a weekend is unheard of.

I'm back at work, although not on Fridays. Not out of choice but out of 'the company has no money so we're cutting everyone's hours by 20% kthnxbai'. But i'm not too bothered as its more time to rest for me.

anyway just checking in, as it were. do tell me interesting things about your lives. i haven't been to a gig since Peter 6 months ago, sadness. i had tickets to see the cribs and then couldn't go. i did help make pumpkin pie last week though. result.

well updates, i'm currently signed off work for two weeks with depression. the depression is merely a handy added bonus of the ocd, not being able to do anything will depress you like that. after a mid august appointment, my next mental health tete a tete is nearly another month away. helpful. but don't get me started on the uselessness of the mental health team.

other than that, erm

gary! my plant has been re-potted and is thriving and huge.

I've managed to download spotify to my new laptop, woo!

my friend who lives in Bristol was on the set of Being Human yesterday while they were filming!

i'm home alone and it's making me nervous

Hellooo

You may not recognise me, i haven't been on lj in so long. this is due to the rubbishness of the ill. and thus i don't really have anything to talk about as I haven't done anything. really not much at all. not even seen Carl's filmic debut. but I just thought i'd say hello and i do still read my friends page on occasion so i hope you're all doing well and stuffs. The extent of my social calender was a picnic in my friend's garden last weekend in which i ate much too much food and managed to get sunburnt. my friend's little girl who is nearly two now came and promptly managed to 'pull' the boy next door (glamorous sugar daddy of six). other than that, hmm, well i have been reading Sarah Waters' new book, editing poetry at work by adults who think they're poets but don't know where the apostrophe goes in 'haven't', oh and i finally got my doctors referral thing but haven't actually had any treatment yet... i also haven't got my internet fixed, need to buy a new laptop entirely, anybody got any laptop recommendations? my criteria is must be able to load webpages quicker than i can go downstairs and find food and then come back upstairs again, not too much to ask right?
pooh
still waiting on psych appointment. grr.

bout two weeks since my referral. and over two months since my referral for CBT. yeah don't mind me mental health professionals.



also if i have any more time off work, I exceed my 'points' for the quarter. As far as i can recall, i've had two days and two hours off this year, and even then they weren't even all in the same quarter. stoopid points system.

Employment

I shouldn't have to take overtime if I don't want to, it's not compulsory is it? *sigh*

Managing to hold down a job is difficult enough for me at the moment... But if I tell them that then they'll probably handily remove that difficulty by sacking me/not renewing my contract. I just feel like I'm being made to look like the bitch who isn't putting any effort in. gah.

Too deeply to tell

  • Mar. 30th, 2009 at 9:47 PM
Byron
WHEN we two parted
In silence and tears,
Half broken-hearted
To sever for years,
Pale grew thy cheek and cold,
Colder thy kiss;
Truly that hour foretold
Sorrow to this.

The dew of the morning
Sunk chill on my brow--
It felt like the warning
Of what I feel now.
Thy vows are all broken,
And light is thy fame:
I hear thy name spoken,
And share in its shame.

They name thee before me,
A knell to mine ear;
A shudder comes o'er me--
Why wert thou so dear?
They know not I knew thee,
Who knew thee too well:
Lond, long shall I rue thee,
Too deeply to tell.

In secret we met--
In silence I grieve,
That thy heart could forget,
Thy spirit deceive.
If I should meet thee
After long years,
How should I greet thee?
With silence and tears.

WHEN WE TWO PARTED
George Gordon (Lord) Byron

Bit late in posting and no pictures yet as internet connection is bad but I went to see Peter in Norwich on Monday. It was marvellous. I probably won’t be able to recall most of the interesting details but the stuff you don’t want to know? That’s right here.

today, well yesterday, was comic relief. i bought 3 cakes at work in aid of charityness. they were yum. i'm very charitable where cake is concerned. i also got through 1 glass of wine and 5 cups of tea. kicks or consumption indeed. (not all of this at work i hasten to add, most while watching comic relief on telly at my mate's. she bought me a nose, i managed to break it whilst playing with it) 

don't know whether my tablets have made any discernable difference yet. had a bit of withdrawal symptoms from coming off fluoxetine and lots of headaches and sleepiness but then I do have that anyway. hmmm. still i'm endeavouring to pass for normal.

take drugs, don't eat

I has new drugs!!!!!! woooo!

ahem.

isn't reading the list of possible side effects fun? Difficulty in sleeping and agitation often occur Well difficulty in sleeping would probably be beneficial at work cos I hear you're not supposed to nod off there.


also, i'd kinda like to do a date on Peter's tour with Graham Coxon on it. more than one date could be too ambitious though... i don't know

kaiser chiefs

Last week I went to see Kaiser Chiefs at Nottingham Arena. they were awesome. i know they're not very cool or nme but i love them. i bounced and danced and sang and well, i may have been a bit drunk. From embarassingly little alcohol too. i was on the house wine as it was cheaper than a spirit and a mixer and god it was vile, yet strangely addictive. i may have alienated my not-that-fussed-about-kaiser-chiefs friend slightly with my enthusiasm as she was just stood back from me at the edge (we were kinda frontish, far-right) while I went for it on me own but FUN.

Can't remember the setlist (see aforementioned wine) but I think they played a pretty even mix of all three albums. Very pleased to still have Modern Way in there and good to hear ones I hadn't heard live before like Good Days and Bad Days, which I didn't really like at first but has grown on me. Ricky did a bit of scaffolding climbing and also went out to the sound desk thingy (i forget if that's what you call it) in the crowd. And to finish was the extended crowd singalong of Oh My God. I was very knackered at work the next day.




you can take my temperature... )

This girl that I went to primary school with and who used to go out with Alex Turner is now going out with one of the Kings of Leon! she also got her band's demos produced by Anthony of DPT!

man, all i've got since leaving primary school is bad skin and a mental illness.

As my friend Jen said 'well. imagine. i remember when her tooth fell out in the middle of mrs hills maths class'

In need of some repair

Just doing work to make up for being late due to road rubbishness and reading a load of stories by primary school kids and this one cheered me somewhat:

I'm so easily amused...

where I work, we produce a couple of kids' magazines about creative writing and many months ago I got to write a couple of pages for one of them, which had to be about grammar and unexciting things like that. About a month after the magazine should have been published (we hadn't got enough money to get it printed but shh) I finally got a copy of it last week and I was reminded of what I had put in it to amuse myself: How to make a sentence )

Also we have had lots of snow, I had the day off on Thursday due to there being no buses and then on Friday I went to work and then got sent home at half 10 after it had snowed all morning and then they thought we might get snowed in. Good in a way, but now I'm doing all the work that I didn't do at home. except for now, when i'm not.
