The 'I need a distraction' thread.

[nonperson]

I've been awake since 8:30. =/

[chinahorse]

:/ if it's any help that's about when I went to sleep?

Nap time today at any point?

Trying to psyche myself up to calling argos.

[nonperson]

Yeah I know I shouldn't complain really. Just feel like I've had no sleep at all!

Don't really like day time naps, always feel weird afterwards rather than better.

What happened with Argos?

[chinahorse]

That feeling really does suck though! And fair enough, maybe just some quiet time chilling with your new book or somat instead then :)

They took my money but gave me no order number or anything to collect the items from. The lady was nice but all that can be done is to cancel it. Which is fair but like I now don't have the 5 items I want/need.

And south west water just rang me to tell me I'm pretty much paying enough each month. Erm ok? The lady sounded sheepish lol

[nonperson]

Can you just re-order?

That's a weird thing to call you about! Maybe she knew it was a pointless call too and that's why she sounded odd. =)

[chinahorse]

Mrs water lady asked for MRS my surname and I was like sorry my mums out :-P

[chinahorse]

I can but I don't want to muddy the waters till the money has been refunded as it's over 60 quid. I should just be less lazy and go and get the things from argos myself I just don't like it in there fr long periods. And they never have enough of those machines for a shop that is essentially battleships.

When I lived at home I used to get confused for my mum on the phone because we supposedly sound exactly the same! Her friends used to call and just start talking and talking and talking and I had to butt in somehow and say I'm not her!

Ah that is rubbish then. You get things quicker though if you go to the shops.

[chinahorse]

Haha that sounds like it could have gotten awkward!!

True. I just can't drive and would rather get things in one go but meh I'll get a taxi. Life goes on.

[nonperson]

Hope it's nothing big and bulky to get. Can imagine trying to stuff flat pack furniture in a taxi. =)

[chinahorse]

I moved house in a taxI once.
It's more awkward things like a dirty washing bin and a bathroom storage unit and a v shaped pillow.

[Aubergine]

Had to cancel going to visit a friend because my tummy is still not playing. :( Can't work out if I'm hot or cold. Silly body. It is a troll.


Getting anything nice from Argos, Lillie?

[nonperson]

Ah that's not so bad then. =)

[nonperson]

Aw, poor Aubergine. Better to get rested up than force yourself to do too much!

[not_so_insig]

Morning all

[chinahorse]

Oh no :( fluids and rest the aubergine.

[not_so_insig]

I am being driven mad by a neighbour's constantly barking dog. I have a tenancy inspection in a fortnight's time. Last time they asked me if I had any issues with my neighbours so I am going to mention it.

[chinahorse]

Have you spoken to the neighbours about their dog? If they are out all day they may genuinely not know it's making a racket.

[Aubergine]

I've just had a wash, changed my bed and got into clean pyjamas. Got back in bed, but feel a bit better for feeling fresh. Drinking plenty. :)


Hey Dawn. :) Barking dog sounds frustrating. Might be worth having a quiet word.

[not_so_insig]

They have gone out so I will have to wait until they come back.
