...Inside Her Insides

So I went next door earlier and had 2 cans of cider. Blinkin' flip, I was as pissed as if I had had about 7 cans of beer

Visitor

And that Toby came and really enjoyed his dinner. He is starting college tomorrow, tomorrow. My first born is going to college, how old must I be then?

Healthiest

It occurred to me yesterday that of all the 8 or 10 people who live here I am the only one that has 'my staff' doing extra "stuff" all the time. One other resident has 2x2 hour sessions with "someone from an agency" but that is all, no-one has anything like my staff.

Fixed

And last night my PC wasn't able to access Broadband, as in it wasn't able to access the Interweb. I phoned and spoke to someone and they said it should be fixed in a couple of hours, so I went to bed, woke up s'morning and the Broadband light on my router is blue again, it works again
But I wasn't awake enough, I woke up, went for a pee and instead of going back to bed like I wanted/needed I popped into the living room to see if Broadband was working again. By the time I had stopped cheering I was too awake to go back to bed

Sloe Gin

And I am now having the first drink I have had since last Thurdsday

No Memory

I have no memory at all of my last job but apparently I was good at it

Freephone

I saw a van advertising a freephone number. I thought I bet not from mobiles. Yes, I looked and it costs 20p per minute from a mobile. So I went online and looked arount and then I found a number that you dial before the 0800 number on your mobile and it just charges you for a normal call, not the 20p per minute

Bookmarks Button for Chrome

For a number of weeks I have been using Google Chrome as my web browser, genarally I am very happy with it but it refused to put a "bookmarks" button on the toolbar that's already there, either use another toolbar or do without. So every couple of days for a number of weeks I have searched the Interweb for an addition, I couldn't find one. OK, I only found one and it sulked in my PC so I deleted it. Today I entered "chrome bookmarks button" into Google as usual and this time the first result was correct, now I have a button

Telly

And I am watching a strange program about rock bands playing acoustic guitars. Strange but pleasing
And it is making me feel a bit f**ked as I can no longer play

Sleep is for the medium

So I woke up and got up at 8.15 today. Not a lie in but not quite as early as recently

B,B,C,C,B,B,W,W

Well that Paul came round today. We did loadsa stuff, we looked online, checked stuff, checked local hotels then we booked the hotel that we are staying in for Absent Friends in Yorkshire. After much more busyness when we didn't have a chance to book private dental care we went shopping in Waverley Stores and bought loadsa organic food and drink.

See you

Oh my good lord, we have just booked for me and Paul to stay just around the corner from Absent Friends, we are going on Saturday night, the 17th

Weak

Sleep is for the weak. Again

I've Been Had

Sorting out the change in my pockets tonight I found one of these

Who

And I watched on BBC iPlayer the first of a new Dr Who adventure. Good lord, it was a lot more scary than Dr Who used to be, but it was good anyway

Much Later

Then Ed came in, I haven't seen him for ages and I won't see him for another week now as he is on a course next week but..... He was helping me read the instructions to my razor and said "Brush here", I said "What brush?", he said "It was in the pack..." so we looked through every piece of wrapping that we had unwrapped to no avail. I was just heading over to my PC to email a complaint when Ed said "Ah here" reached under the table and picked one up.

It was the first of their 'longer days' so he was here from 10AM to 5PM but it was fine. He went and sat outside while I had my lunch etc, it just went well

Later

Then the postman brought me my new razor which does seem really effective etc. So I might actually use this razop every couple of days so I won't look so stubble at weekends. Good lord.....

Early

So this morning I was up ages before my alarm clock went off and hadn't even had a brew or breakfast yet, I was sitting outside in the sunlight when a van pulled up, and the chap who I was told would come at 9 o'clock to fix my wheelchair came. He replaced the handle bit and said "What screw?" watched as I opened it, said "Ahh" and got stuck in. Initially he thought he was gonna have to come back with one next week but in the end replaced the threadless screw. Secondly he thought he was gonna have to go out to his van and saw a bit off the end but on further looking he found a shorter screw with same sized teeth

Snack

And this evening I am demolishing a small packet of Yoghurt Coated Raisins and good lord, they are much nicer than the hard Yoghurt Coated Banana I tried last week

Later

Then that gorgeous Freya came over, did my head in for a bit but we made friends again in the end
