New Post! Coming Down with Something
July 16, 2012 @ 01:02:46 pm

Yesterday at work I suddenly felt extremely dizzy and my hands started shaking erratically, spilt coffee all over my work surface, burning my hand in the process.

Coffee was only three quarters full.

I'd woken up yesterday feeling hungover despite not having drank a drop of alcohol the previous night.

Couldn't sleep last night and I felt like the room was spinning. Got about two hours sleep before my alarm woke me up for work. Still felt pretty bad so phoned in sick (which I hate doing, but fortunately my work is overstaffed at the moment so I don't feel too guilty about it).

Slept a few more hours this morning, and woke up feeling fine.

Anyway, just now I've suddenly started feeling dizzy again and my hands are shaking, not as erratically as yesterday but I still feel weird and depleted.

Quite frustrating all in all, particularly as I've got a busy week ahead sorting things out in the Weej and there are a few plans I'm unwilling/unable to cancel.

Anyway, I have a good supply of biscuits and I suppose it's nice to have a day to rest after a fairly stressful couple of weeks. Mmm, Jammie Dodgers.

New Post! Just a f***ing Rant

University are asking me for a receipt to give them to prove that I paid them £200 (which they then reimbursed me) which I don't think I have and don't know how to get, other wise they will prevent me from registering for the next academic term.

My pay at work has f***ed up meaning I'm going a long time without getting paid, which is frustrating as although I have some money saved up, it isn't a great amount and having to wait a month longer to get money I was due to get last month is frustrating particularly as I'm spending most my time at work doing things that other people should be doing but are too incompetent to do properly.

Having a nightmare with my flat at the moment as there are a list of problems with it and the landlord is dragging his feet before getting them sorted.

Being an adult sucks. So many different things to be constantly aware of, so many bills to pay and forms to fill in to ensure you aren't paying too much of this or too much of that, and then when you think you have finally got something sorted you find out you haven't done this correctly and will therefore be charged for it unless it is rectified, even though you did what you were told to do at the time, but it turns out they neglected to tell you about a key part of it.

I really hope I find this receipt, I can't afford to give away £200 to the uni for something I maintain I didn't need to get in the first place but the university themselves insisted upon and I only agreed to do it because they told me they would pay me back.

Anyway, rant over.

New Post! Unexpected Day Off

My work is massively overstaffed and I had a really short shift due today, so I wasn't too surprised to get a phone call from my boss this morning telling me not to bother coming in.

Bit annoying though, found myself with a Saturday off but as it's somewhat unexpected I haven't planned anything or have anything to do.

Anyway, might try and rally the troops and go to the cinema or something.

New Post! Feeling Uptight

Feeling quite uptight today. Had a bit of a nightmare at work (cleaning up after other people who messed up, not their fault though so not blaming them then finding out my pay has gone in wrong meaning I won't get paid properly until the accountants get round to sorting it out, meaning I will get my pay I was due last month but not until the end of this month. Feel annoyed that I'm essentially doing other people's work and at the moment I'm not even getting paid) and just feel really uptight and frustrated.

I'm quite a calm person and generally feel quite relaxed and laid back about things. Feel right annoyed tonight though.

Think I'll have a couple of beers or a glass of wine to try and relax a bit.

Might put on some Bob Marley as well.

It's T in the Park weekend tonight and I'm not there Feels odd being T weekend and not being there, but I'm not there for a good reason. One of my best mates, and longest mate I'm still friends with, is getting married tomorrow.

Tres exciting. Got the kilt ready (and the tissues).

Not been to a wedding since I was about 3 years old, missed my dad's and my uncles, not missing this one though!

New Post! Hungover is an Understatement

I drank way too much last night, beer, vodka, Guinness, espresso martinis (seriously good but my mate only had a hand powered grinder for the coffee beans, I mean talk about living in the stone age!), cider and (most regretfully) gin.

Long story short, I drank way more than I probably should have and am regretting it now!

Good night all round though. Think I might have to detox from alcohol for the next couple of weeks though.

New Post! Dressing Up Gay

So I'm going to a wedding party tonight, dress code: Gay (It's a gay couple getting married, we aren't rugby fans).

Thing is I have no idea how to dress gay, even though half my friends are gay I don't really know what gay folk tend to wear. Tips, advice anything?

Currently I look like a Swedish version of Greg Wallace but with hair.

Been away on holiday living it up in Copenhagen and Berlin, both fantastic cities. Great time.

Anything happened on here in my absence?

So I had a shift in the capital city today so decided to stay at my mum's house rather than get the choo choo through to Glasgow.

Anyway, my mum happens to be in Glasgow tonight (strange that I'm in her city and she's in mine, but there you go). I got back just now, opened up the fridge and saw eight bottles of beer, looked over at the table and my mum left a note saying she'd bought them for me!

My mum is the best!

New Post! I love Americans

I love Americans, particularly the fact that they come to this country on holiday and don't know our tip culture!

Almost made as much in tips as I did in wages today thanks to two bus loads of American tourists.

Thank you America.
