In Your Head…

Been a rather uneventful weekend due to wet weather but a bit of me time has been rather nice after all that has gone off this week. Have to do a stock and equipment check for Lucy, my boss tomorrow at the BBC radio Lincs building. I like going there its a shame we are going to lose the contract in March. I’ve managed to do a Zombie page here featuring my top 5 favourite Zombie flicks of all time. There are some good reviewers on Youtube so hats off to each of them for letting us share their work with the embed codes. Check it out!

Paying Dues

Managed to get to the laundrette today. Despite the price its a faster way to wash your clothes. Might have to do it more in the future. Made a little cartoon for my youngest sister today. During production a rather living Minx turns up to return my possessions. The text I sent her yesterday has left her fuming. Well, can I be blamed for the women have treat me in the past? To hell with being the gentle giant, I’ve finally manned up to the occasion. Yea I’ll miss her but six of one and half a dozen of the other.

I was hoping to maybe do some cycling tomorrow but the wind and rain are going crazy outside. Early is the key though, the roads seem much quieter. Beyond The Pit, sequel to the Fighting Fantasy guidebook Out Of The Pit is now available to buy.

Psychic or what?

Well I was right about Minx. She’s calling it a day with me though I had to trawl it out of her. She hasn’t given a reason why but it all seems pretty mutual. Considering she didn’t hit my G spot anyway its no great loss on the relationship front but she’s a nice person so Id love to stay friends, something she hasn’t confirmed but what the hell. She was going to drag me all the way to the coffee shop and drop the news there but I knew it was going to happen all week. Psychic or what?

Need to do a new coverpic for Facebook. Guess I can look forward to a pretty boring weekend unless the weather turns unimaginably good for January and I get a bike ride in. Hey,…least I can drool over Shannon, the new mobile cleaner without a guilt trip. Every cloud has a silver lining! Oh and thanks to artgland and Opinionated Man for being my first followers 😉

A Rebirth

Am I such a bad friend that people feel its respectable to me to argue on my own Facebook wall? The type 2 Bipolar in me thinks so. Well this week has left me pretty sour minded towards some of my friends to the point I have actually deactivated my old Facebook account. I sooner throw myself on the blade than feel my heart break as two friends tear each other to shreds for nothing more than a petty disagreement. I opened a new one just for family and colleagues to stay in touch. Even Minx hasn’t spoken much and today only sent one solitary text. I kind of get the message although she does say she’s working hard and tired. I don’t mind cutting the slack though I am use to it. I can now tie in my blog , Instagram and Facebook using the Publicize feature and the like. Lets see if this endeavour will be better all round.

Nigel paid a visit to work today with our new mobile cleaner Shannon. Nice lass or seems to be. Pizza night around Mel n Robs again tonight. I think its the fourth one we have had so far. Seem to have one every 5 months or so. Good times.

Life Goes On

Been an unfortunate week with Roger Lloyd Pack passing away, and the little boy in Scotland being killed. However, life goes on but we can always remember. Had some lovely meals with Minxy this week and we seem to be growing closer. Thankfully she did my laundry this week. The bad thing is I have simply had to break into the savings again. Why is this so difficult to save when I’m living for less than I use too. My guess is because we have no microwave here. Speaking of here…there seems to be an atmosphere between me a the Landlady. She hasn’t been as chatty and jolly. Either she’s ill, mad at her fella, or thinking of kicking me out and doesn’t know how to break it to me. If its the latter I wouldn’t mind as long as the notice and/or deposit are utilised correctly. don’t know where id go though…

Catch Up

Haven’t posted here for a few nights but its been all go. Eggzy sent a few photo’s through for his website to be updated with and Andreas domain needed updating. Also took the liberty of sending a reminder to Erics mate that their domain will be retiring soon if they don’t renew. Work’s been a bit busy lately too and we had the pleasure of Lucys company yesterday, and a new general manager of the Norwich area. Got along quite well and he was admiring Jason the Orangeplant.

Stopped at minxys last night. I think our snoring is going to wind each other up eventually. Had a lovely Chinese takeaway though, and a good old chat about more personal things. Know each other quite well now. Just been playing left4dead again whilst the laundry has been on its cycle. Can’t wait till I get back into cycling too. Its been too long. Moneys getting tighter also. Roll on the end of January as we may get a back date from last April. That will help if I have to cut into the savings.

Left 4 Bed

Well as you can see I didn’t type here yesterday. People has missed me at work and the condition of the place showed it was not ill founded. Today seemed to go by much smoother. I’m beginning to knuckle down and get things done. The wretch in the canteen has been fly tipping her boxes around our disposal area again. Called out a greeting this morning but never received a reply. Something to moan at the boss about I suppose. It never went down too well last time so wonder what reaction we will get next.

Finished the day off on my usual Left 4 Dead campaign. Death Toll is still my favourite scenario. May do a page dedicated to the game at the weekend as I have learned a lot of tips and hints. Its disappointing so many immature children are let on to play an 18 certificate game with vulgar coarse language and graphic violence. Clearly its lack of parental care, they should be ashamed of themselves.

Sound Sunday

Woke up quite early for a Sunday, at 9.30am and had a few rounds of Left4Dead before someone switched off the internet without warning me. Ta :P! Caught the bus to Asda and grabbed a few lunch type snacks before dropping by at Dads. He seems to be happy as he’s going back to Spain tomorrow for four weeks. After a few crossword games we had a risotto for dinner and sat round television vegetating in front of the Sunday Night line up of programs.

Back to work tomorrow. Need to get cracking and be a little more stricter with myself as far as work is concerned. I dare say my areas will be met with the same neglect they are always left in when I’m on leave.

Afternoon At Squoozies

Minx went to work at 7am this morning so we was up at 6.30. Thankfully she gave me a lift home as it was raining. I really hope things arnt going to be rushed between us. We came close to intimacy the other day but I want to make sure we will actually be going places before any of that takes place.

Took Scott his card and birthday gift down to Birchwood today. Youngest sister, Sue, was busy taking down all the Xmas decorations. After which we had a rather enjoyable retro game of Bomberman 2 on the SNES. Almost got through the game entirely before heading back for burger and fried from Romeo’s Pizza. Must hand it to them they are nicely done. Ive received a couple of messages from Minx, apparently she has looked through my shower bag to make sure alls to standard I guess lol.

Past Echoes

Its a strange thing going back out with Minx. On the way home from hers yesterday morning I saw the bus services to Louth and Market Rasen one after the other. Having been hurt by a woman from both villages last year its seemed like life was trying to rub salt into the wounds. Still, onwards and upwards this year.
My browsers playing up. I’m beginning to wonder if someone’s been messing around with my laptop. Its never acted like this before. Time for another shower. Going to spend the rest of the day with Minx as she hasn’t got any work this afternoon.
