  • All due respect to Goldfrapp's tour announcement but Royksopp also confirmed a tour with Robyn today , Goldfrapp Excitement is 2 on a scale of David Guetta to Royksopp, while Royksopp Excitement is 10 on a scale of getting a filling to spaffing my pants.

  • I have a job interview tomorrow. Practising my answers, I find they all end with the phrase, "...so you can stuff you sodding job up your prissy, middle-class arses."

    Do you think this is a good sign?
  • Be yourself. Either they like you or they do not. If not, Bugger them.
    My Dad and brother have left about 20 mins ago. It went well. No mention of my Mam and no trouble. Phew. Like old times, I enjoyed it. I know the trouble will raise its ugly head in the future but tonight is good.
    Finishes off a great day with the tour announced. For once i can say= i am happy.

  • I feel kind of all over the place, twitchy, nervous even. I think i slept way too long and now my brain is finally switched back on there's too much juice @-)
  • I feel nice and content. Going doing some shopping on the way home. Then i will talk to whoever wants to talk to me.  Normally nobody but eh i am trying to stay happy. Then football is on. I can watch that upstairs. All good.

  • Busy day at work but in a not too stressful way. Enough energy left for me to put the bloody Xmas tree up tonight anyway!!!
  • Haven't been here for a while.... My new job is very draining.... Feel very out of the loop...
  • I still feel good. All my Birthday lark is over. Not as much aggro as i thought there would be. So because of that i am content.

  • my interview went as anticipated. 90 mins travelling, then three flights of stairs and no lift, so i was effing shattered before i started.

    my main strategy, it turned out, was to answer every question by grinning manically and making choppy hand motions, like Tony Blair on speed.

    i also made a joke about being old and handicapped. Not sure how that went down, as i was blinking the sweat out of my eyes at the time.

    LOVE tasted CRITICAL
  • ^ Fingers crossed for ya here as well , 

     Today is the day that I do "Drink `n` Xmas Shop" , off in 5 minutes to catch a bus and do my xmas shopping and have a drink . Nothing will go wrong , off to Greggs to line my stomach with a concrete pasty and off to the pub and then make a set of possibly bad choices in hindsight . Fuck the weather , here I come .

  • Had a shit day to be honest. Was at work longer than I should have been, twat taxi was 20 minutes fucking late with no apology leaving me standing out in the cold and dark. Get home eventually, home phone is broken (piece of shit). Find out the hospital have been messing Dads appointments about chopping and changing times. Stupid divvy nurse couldnt find a vein for his blood test so had to get another nurse to help leaving the door open so all and sundry in the waiting room had a good old look at what was going on.
    They have left him feeling really down and uncertain he has the all clear on his prostate cancer.
    So fucked off I cant even be excited about the TOU tour!! Hope tomorrow will be better for me 
    :-((
  • ^hope so, HB. And better for your Dad too!

    Thanks for people's good wishes re my job interview. I got the phone call from the chair of the interview panel later. It began:

    "Hello, can I speak to whisperit please?"

    "Speaking"

    "Awww, whisperit..."

    I got some satisfaction from ignoring what she said next, and instead exploited her sense of guilt to ask a variety of inappropriate questions. It was quite fun.   

Howdy, Stranger!
