FRIDAY

YES!

FRIDAY!

I'm leaving the office at 12pm to go on a "jolly" today. So technically that's when my day ends? IDK.

Got to get to Stansted for about 5.30am tomorrow. JOY.

What do your weekends hold?

Morning PN & fellow Dissers

Still a bit bunged up with the cold so probably lay low tonight, although its the last of the amazing snakeheads late night residency at broadcast.....hmmmmmm
Tomorrow a friend gets back from 3 years travelling, so gonna meet up with him and the troops which will probably end in an absolute mess someplace.
And my brother is moving flat so will have to give him a hand at some point.

- I LOVE the Amazing Snakeheads
  
  I heard one song called 'Nighttime' and I fell in love. I can't find that song anywhere though...but they're amazing. Check out my Big Fat White Family if you like that kind of thing.

Morning

I went for some dim sum with a friend I haven't seen in a year. He's moving back to new Orleans to look after his mother who isn't very well so it was lovely catching up but a bit sad. However, I am planning to go and visit him in New Orleans so that's pretty ace.

I drank a mocktail at the dim sum place which was nice. I had a tomato juice at my local on the way back from dinner...after nearly three weeks of not drinking I really am craving a drink.

Quick question/advice: An ex-employer has put £880 in my bank account...I haven't been there for nearly two years and the boss was pretty upset when I left them. I don't want to contact them, but i'm going to have to pay it back aren't I or at least see if there was some kind of back payment?

Have a lovely day all!

      Seriosuly, one of the worst companies to work for. But i feel a moral obligation to pay it back, and I'm not sure but it may count as theft if I don't give it back. I'm going to ring the bank first.

Morning niki, all

Went to see Jacques Greene & Koreless in a church in Hackney last night and it was fuuuuuucking amazing.

Meant to be going to see James Blake tonight but I am officially dead I think.

Got a massive spreadsheet to 'populate' with 'media values' at work today - woohoo!*

On a virgin train back home. They are bringing me a full English breakfast as I try to organise a meeting in Aberdeen next week.

Cannot wait to get home and not eat out all the time.

morning all

got asked to work in a different office on the way to my normal office, then after i'd started going the other way they changed their minds. got told yesterday I might be getting sent to Glasgow for an undefined length of time, then i'm not, then i'm going to Newcastle for 1 or 2 days. wish some people would make their mind up.

going home at 3ish today though so not all bad?

I have a blood test at midday

I am completely shitting it. Hate needles, hate blood, scared of everything.

CillaCrack | 25 Apr '14, 10:10 | X
- what're they testing for?
  
  Jordan_229_2 @CillaCrack | 25 Apr '14, 10:12 | X
  - allergies
    
    I've been having reactions to apples, avocados, apricot, almonds... all the 'a' things basically. I had a few bites of an apple and couldn't breathe for a while.
    
    I think I'm gonna cancel the blood test.
    
    CillaCrack @Jordan_229_2 | 25 Apr '14, 10:13 | X
    - DON'T CANCEL THE BLOOD TEST
      
      I'm just as afraid of needles etc but recently in hospital I had to have assorts of drips put in me and my veins collapsed because they're rubbish. Seriously, it's just a prick (matron). Don't just leave things, they won't go away. Trust me.

        props for trying man!
        
        at least in the short term you have something to help you control your anxiety, I'd definitely recommend going and having a proper full on chat (if you haven't already) with your GP about it all and seeing what they suggest, I know from experience how easy it is to just keep taking something even though it might not be helping rather than going back and getting the problem 'sorted'.
        
        badmanreturns @CillaCrack | 25 Apr '14, 13:20 | X
- Can you get anyone to go with you?
  
  Just to distract you by talking to you whilst it happens? You'll barely feel it, if you just look the other way or focus on something else you'll be fine! Definitely go, even for the peace of mind of just having done it.

  marilyninthesky this'd this
  - take some deep breathes
    
    and try and push yourself to go. i only say this because I've put off a lot of health stuff in the past from being scared and it has made things worse. If you have allergies then you need to get it sorted.
    
    Good luck xx
    
    marilyninthesky @badmanreturns | 25 Apr '14, 10:35 | X
    - Cheers both
      
      but I'm out, at least for today. In the past year or so my phobias have heightened and I'm an incredibly anxious person anyway, I want to get that looked at first.

  - i am in am open house exhibition thing in brighton in may
    
    so i am screen-printing some drawings i have done
    i've wimped out a bit and gone a little commercial (like pictures of animals and stuff - bit twee really) as i want to actually sell some stuff. give me a minute and i'll upload some mock ups to dropbox.
    after the 1st of may i'm going back to drawing pop stars with bits of their face missing and stuff liek that
    
    chris-budget @badmanreturns | 25 Apr '14, 11:12 | X

        this is what one of them is probably going to look like - colours will probably change and i'll probably do some without the squiggles
        i have done the black layer already
        https://www.dropbox.com/s/ul80bddv3lpgijf/bull-for-print-mock-72.png
        
        all my mock ups are on the home computer - just put this together quickly form the layer files i have stored, but once the open house is underway i might make a thread a try and flog some stuff here, and i'm going to be doing more in the future now i know what i'm doing - and that'll be more EXPERIMENTAL stuff

    title is something about parachutes. my favourite bit in it is where he says you should ask someone at a company you want to work for, for a meeting that will be 19 minutes, as 19 minutes sounds less vague than 20. and keep a time of the 19 minutes, and make sure you end exactly on time, so they know you are a man of your word...
    
    - "hello, yes. this is the boss you want to work for."
    - "hi yes, can i come in for a meeting?"
    - "sure. when?"
    - "any time this week. I will use no more than 19 minutes of your time."

Been up half the night

Partly with indgestoin (very ill advised dinner and too much cheese as midnight snack), work reports to read (zzzzz, but oddly didn't make me fall asleep) and then I watched Gossip girl from 2 till 5 (I'd never seen it before- HOW ADDICTIVE?). got up at 7am for 8.30 meeting. Feeling naw bad for 2 hours sleep, but going to crash as soon as I finish work.

- I've been in meetings
  
  So haven't reallt noticed. I was pure gutted to miss Margo Macdonald's service this morning as my early meeting overran :(
  
  BUT, sometimes things happen for a reaons because thank god i didn't go - the shit hit the fan in the office about an hour ago over something and I'm trying to sort it out as the senior partner isn't in. i am actually feeling sick and going to go and hide in the stationery cupboard. Send crisps.
