Not the menopause (thankfully)
Well, now I know what those tingly things were - it was just me coming down with some nasty, shitty cold type thing. Big hairy pants.
Well, at least it wasn’t the menopause I hear you all say (very quietly). I’ve been a complete martyr and come into work today after spending the last 4 days under a duvet and watching some truly shite day time TV. That’s enough to make anyone get better. Jerremy Kyle! What a smug opinionated twunt he is. If I was a 14 year old chav with 2 kids and a boyfriend whose only interest in life is wanking in a small flat and drinking with his mates, I don’t think I’d be interested in any of his advice. Advice that, to me, consisted only of “you’re far too young!” (well, I could only actually stomach 5 minutes of the drivel so maybe it got better)
Anyway, enough of my rant on daytime TV…well, OK just a bit more. Princess Nikki! What a program. For a daytime slot, this was actually quite good. Nikki from Big Brother being made to gut fish and clean out a deep fat fryer. Priceless. So 4 days being ill – not entirely wasted.
What was I talking about?
Oh yeah, right….I was in London last week and was planning on spending the Saturday being all spangly and going around Covent Garden. I felt so ill that it was all I could do to just drag myself to Paddington to get a train home. People shuffled as far as possible away from me on the tube – I looked awful and wasn’t entirely sure if I was going to throw up or pass out (so can’t say I blame them really). I told my Nan about this and she said “They probably thought you were a Druggie!”
Yeah. Thanks Nan.
So whilst I may be at work, I am taking it very easy. Have read through 50 emails but not actually done anything about them yet. Maybe tomorrow. I only really came in to use the inkjet printer anyway
But there is a reason for taking it easy – I must be better by Saturday. Whale is coming over for an afternoon Ready Steady Cook challenge, all to be made with whatever I have in my cupboards…which is mainly beans…followed by our annual pre-christmas drinky. This year to be in Stroud. Woo and Yay. Can’t miss that.
More vitamin C needed.

No! No, no no noooooooooooo!
I’ve been getting these tingles in the neck for the past week or so. No biggy or anything. Just thought I’d see if google had anything to say on the matter – and have just found out that neck tingling is a symptom of the Menopause!
Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
That’s bloody it. I’ve gone and caught the menopause of my middle-aged collagues.
Oh fwap.

Glasses
First off: I just wanted to say how much glasses can change a person’s face. I’m amazed. A certain person *cough* now wears them, and it’s made such a difference (it’s the big chunky square ones) So yes, glasses.
As for the rest of Wednesday when I wasn’t thinking about glasses, it was spent in the most pointless way possible – in a room full of people with such varying points of view and no want or way to reconcile them. *sigh*. Normally, this wouldn’t bother me – I’d just let them argue it out and shut the fuck up but on Wednesday I was suffering the after effects of the “champagne” (I don’t think it was real Champagne – hence the hangover) from the night before. I was in no mood to listen to people who love the sound of their own voices. Thankfully escape was possible from this meeting at 3.30 – woo! So I was then free to entertain myself in whatever way seemed fit. I must confess this actually involved Chocolate and crap TV.
Tomorrow night will be much different though, a *proper* night out in our Capital City has been promised. I will try not to vomit on any 4-wheel drive car. I should add that the emphasis should be on the word try. I actually haven’t been able to get roaringly drunk since that last episode – my stomach still almost winces at the sight of blue curaco.
And lastly, blimey trousers – where did December go? One more week left till the end of worky. Woo and yay to that. I had a depressingly depressing thought on the car on the way in this morning and that was “what have I actually done this year?” And I couldn’t really think of anything particularly noble or worthy. This year has been quite sucky all in all. I’ve done alot work wise – but my personal life has been incredibly dull. Maybe it’s just been the last couple of months marring my judgement – but nothing really sticks out in my mind. Pah. My new years resolution will probably be to do more interesting stuff.
The end.

I am *pause*
…A very bad judge of character going by how the last few weeks have panned out.
And that is all that I can (and will) say on the matter.

I think I might buy a rabbit
There’s always been a lot of hoo-hah about the Rampant Rabbit, and I think the time may have come to purchase one of these things. Although perhaps not with actual rabbit-features. That would be just plain wrong. After spending quite a long time in a sex shop in Amsterdam perusing the battery-powered paraphernalia, I still can’t get why people would want vibrators with fluffy animal expressions. Or dolphins for that matter. But anyway, I digress.
I sent this picture to Whale earlier this week:

And this is why I think I might turn celebate. We were both just horrified that anyone would think that this picture would encourage women to sleep with them. I mean, come on. Really. A big hairy guy, lead on the bed being photographed with a bendy hardon and not much else only sends creepy shivers down my spine in the way that only guys who buy you a drink then think that you should then sleep with them do. *shudder* In fact, just looking at it now, I can almost picture his little face just willing you to sit on his man-pole. Gaaaaah! Arse. Now I’ve got that image in my head for probably the rest of the day.
If this makes me Gay or a Nun then so be it.
Whilst we’re vaguely on the subject, what is it with lots of body hair? I go to great lengths to get absolutely plastered and epilate most of my body hair off because I think it looks so much better like that, so in return I expect not to get a mouthful of pubic muff everytime I go down on someone. It’s a shame I’m so often disapointed….this would actually nicely lead on to the time when I was actually hilariously sick over someone I was performing fellatio on….but, I’d better not say that here.
So yeah - rampant rabbit versus hairy man-pole. I know which one I want.

The end is nigh (of 2006)
Well, well, well. That’s it then. We’ve nearly run out of 2006. This is a bad thing for me, because it’s my birthday on 31st and I don’t want to get any older PLUS next year is going to be an odd-numbered year.
I can’t explain it – there’s just this overwhelming wrongness to odd-numbered years. Bad things always happen to me on them and I don’t expect to be lucky again for an entire year (and by that time I will nearly be 30 – gaaaaah!)
So, whilst I’m in a reflective kinda mood I thought I’d share with you some of the things I’ve learnt during 2006…
- Trying to sell a car with half a roof rack is never easy
- Constant faffing and dying of hair really doesn’t make it grow
- Dressing up as a KGB agent was a very good idea in October (possibly not such a good one now)
- Thinking 280 miles to Brugge – that’s not far – let’s go!
- Men who drive Lotus sports cars (or ones just designed by Lotus) makes them self-centred arseholes. Technically, this was more of a re-learning than a learning.
- I’m stupid for not learning my lesson first time around that men who drive Lotus sports cars are, in fact self-centred arseholes
- Being an Aunty isn’t too bad
- Thinking that doing a project for the American office would be a good idea
- Forgetting the location of where you used to find loads of magic mushrooms until it’s too dark to pick them shows that vast quantities of drugs *do* affect memory
- I’ve learnt far too much about the menopause. More than I could possibly ever need to know working in an office with middle-aged ladies
- Collecting pictures of knobs from men on skype is incredibly easy and they will even pose with various items naked if requested
- Moving my desk around so that very few people can see my monitor was one of the best things I’ve ever done…but hasn’t exactly lead to an increase in productivity
- Painting a bathroom bit by bit when you work full time is a very long task indeed
- The amount of people searching for “free soapy tit wanks” is actually quite high, and makes me wonder if they actually expect to find a website offering such a thing for free?
- Sometimes, you just have to get very, very drunk
- Pointy high-heeled boots *always* look great but you’ll feel sorry for yourself after a day of shopping wearing them (again, learnt before but easily forgotten)
- Wanking Dutch men are very erotic
- Wanking English men aren’t
- Nightclubs are still great fun
- Having some peaceful, nice, quiet times to yourself is actually jolly nice
- People have probably stopped reading this long list by now
