Medical Testing On Wednesday I went over to Nottingham for a medical testing screening day. It took hours and they did EVERYTHING. Height, weight, blood test, urine test, ECG, blood pressure, lun...

Oh my word, I love Prosebox! I had typed loads and accidentally closed the tab. I thought I’d lost my entry but it was still there when I reopened the tab :o) I have a lot to catch up on in the l...

Another quiet day at work. We haven't had much to do for weeks now and it's getting really dull. Only a few more days to go. I tried to finish my last essay for my Domestic Animal Care course tod...

Jay has now apologised for accusing me of always biting his head off. He said he's too sensitive and has realised that I don't actually do it that often, he just overreacts and makes it bigger th...

Yes, I’m going to talk some more about how my new business set up is going. I got loads of stuff sorted on my days off. As well as delivering over 400 leaflets through doors (it’s hard work and ...

Friday I was off work. I was supposed to be at Alt-Fest with my sister, but it was cancelled so I kept the days off anyway, as I need to use them up before I leave in three weeks. So I took the o...

Ongoing Tales from the Amy Saga For some reason, Amy decided to move into the HR office without saying anything the last couple of days, leaving me to run the admin office on my own. Bizarre enou...

Yesterday my job went up on the Total Jobs website and today I've just pinned it to the internal jobs notice board. I feel more sick and terrified now than when I handed my notice in, every day i...

Oh man it's getting hilarious here at work. I can say it's hilarious because I'm leaving, but if I was staying I'd be very worried and pissed off. As our payroll lady is leaving, our accounts pay...

Saturday was Chillifields! There were only about 20-30 people there and, as we were performing quite early on, the crowd was quite subdued so I felt a bit out of place. We sang some songs that pe...

The Fall- Injuries The scab on my chin has gone! All that remains is a bit of dry skin that doesn't scream "Look at meeee!" anywhere near as much as a massive horrible scab and red swelling. Als...

---

Good Things The scab on my knee has gone! All that's left is a pink patch of brand new skin. I can't explain how much of a relief it is to finally be able to bend my knee again. The scab on my ...

Mac the Chew, instead of Mac the Knife...after the puppy who chews everything in sight. Man, what a weekend! I thought this house sitting assignment would be easier than the last one, as I was m...
