hi babez

I have a 3.30 meeting, a 4pm and a 5pm.
IN between I'm oging ot eat crisps and cake and mess around.

I nearly spent 355 quid on a pair of boots at lunchtime and then I remembered that I'm not a stupipd cunt. So I didn't. This means i'm going ot have cold, sore feet in hyde park tonight though as I only have my flimsy stilettos.

- I need new winter shoes
  
  Absolutely cannot be fucked with shoe shopping though. Even online.

  - I hate shoe shopping
    
    I LOVE buying shoes, but that's totally different.

  thewarn and sexy_girl this'd this
  - we have them every friday (I don't really finish till 7)
    
    Weekly de-brief. Not that kind of de-brief.
    
    My 4pm has moved to 4.30 though, which jeaopardises my 5pm, which would be amazing.

        I mean i'm not a doctor but it definitely sounds like something serious and tropical
        
        and certainly fatal.
        
        Or you probably just have a cold or allergies or something.

pizza express in jesus lane

feels like a fellows' room rather than a pizza restaurant.

    - think I've probably been to plenty of rooms here that have that vibe.
      
      One of our meeting rooms has ancient high-backed chairs and expensive looking oil paintings on every wall.

- There is a guy here who, every Friday afternoon, has one of those really big Twixs and a 500 mL bottle of Coke
  
  It is his Friday treat.
  
  The regularity of this ritual saddens me a little.

I'm reading about extremely cold (for the UK) weather

I'm imagining Day After Tomorrow cold and I'm more convinced me and my loved ones are all going to die this winter. I want a hug :(

Was expecting to be hungover and in my bed all day today on my day off

Wasn't at all hungover so been wandering about Edinburgh most of the day, part of me really wanted to be shat on by a seagull, not in a weird way but to give people a bit of a laugh.

Really need to get some chalk for lifting.

(As in for grip, not just a really big bit of chalk) Don't want to use those chumpy little gloves because they are lame.
Managed to deadlift 150kg today so quite happy. Gaining weight at a nice rate too, should be 11 stone soon.

why the fuck am I scheduled to play squash at 7pm on a Friday?

thewarn | 7 Dec '12, 15:49 | X | ^ This | Reply
- Because any earlier would clash with your 5 pm meeting.

Is there something addictive in iron bru?

I've drunk a bottle of the stuff every day for a week. I don't even like it that much.
