Hello everyone!

I have bought all the presents. Just waiting on a couple to arrive!

how are people doing today? AAnyone got any weekend plans?


I am in a properly bad mood so looking for something to disract my brainbefore it spirals but music/TV are not helping becauase zero concentration levels :laugh: really wish my treadmil wasn't dead as that usually gets rid of the restlessness




also... seriously how the hell is it the end of 2021 already?

I'm going to see Jasmine tomorrow :)

Sorry to hear you're in a bad mood
I wish I had something helpful to suggest!

I know!

My grand total is three presents and that's all I need to buy, thankfully.

What about silly stuff on YouTube, Hazel? TV/cartoon theme tunes from childhood sometimes cheer me up.

No weekend plans here other than a food shop and the Strictly final.

How was work, Beckie?

Work was ok thanks!
Very busy!
It is a Friday after all!

How was your day?

we went food shopping today, to say it's the last weekend before christmas it was suprisingly quiet


might have a look on youtube, or might go see if any of my games of steam appeal. Had the worlds shortest cry and feel slightly better :laugh:

I have also had a little cry! It does help.

Glad work was ok, Beckie. I bet it's ramping up towards Christmas now?

My day was surprisingly ok. I was doing something different with different people in a slightly different place - planting a load of trees - and it was a lot more enjoyable that I thought it would be.

Crying can be cathartic!

Thanks.
It really is!
We had well over 100 people booked into the restaurant for lunch today, and the bar was full! Double that amount of people were booked in for tonight! Plus the walk ins obviously.

That's good to hear!

My weekend plans involve watching horses on the telly.

Morning all! I am awake because my parcel from Lorraine arrived today. At 8.15 am! Unfortunately I was asleep at the time so the knocking woke me up. I have a cat next to me.

Morning!
I hate early parcels!
Though I'm usually awake when they come anyway!

I've had a shower this morning

Morning all.

Early parcels do suck. I've got Hermes delivering between 2 and 4 this afternoon.

Oh no not hermes!
They put my parcel ON TOP of my bins last time.
Not even behind them!
In full view of the road!
Most of the time they don't even knock.
My old hermes courier was much better

My mum works with a company called Hermes and they're always getting phone calls from people angry about non-deliveries.

Lots of horsey action on the telly tonight and for the next 3 days. Can't wait!

I fell back asleep but the postman woke me up.

You'd think they would have chosen a different name, lol

Hermes are usually ok for me.

Hermes are ok for me too.

Lol tamo!
That must get annoying!

My parcel was 60 toilet rolls so it would be something people would steal as well
Thank goodness we're not still in the great toilet paper crisis!

I had a shower, go me!

So many people getting parcels. I don't think I'm waiting on any.

Well done Tamo. :-)

Well done tamo!

I'm waiting on 2 tomorrow!
Then 2 more at some point next week

Evening all.

What should I put on my shopping list? And when should I go? =/

Hum...

What sorts of things have you already got?
Pasta?
Go now! I always find it's best if you don't think about it and just go!

I'm back home!

Did you have a nice day?

I've decided on chilli con carne, that'll feed me easily for a few days... and the usual weekly basics for lunch and snacks and stuff. I'm gonna go in a sec... >.< and then I can watch Strictly when I get back. *deep breath*

Yes thanks :)
We played super smash bros on the switch and then watched Christmas chronicles 2
We're going to go and see Clifford the big red dog in the cinema on Thursday! Then go to McDonald's

You can do it!
May the force be with you!

Ooh that's sounds like a nice plan.

It's weirdly empty in the car park!

Yep! Should be good!

It was pretty empty in asda too
Just a lot of very slow people stopping in front of me :plain:

Oh I HATE it when people just stop in front of you! Honestly humans need break lights

They really do!!!
SO annoying!

Indicators too

Definitely!
Especially in London!

I'm probably one of those people who get in the way and change direction without warning =/

Oh no!
I liked you as well :tongue2:

Well it's unlikely I'll ever get in your way so you can continue to like me!

(Please? XD)

Haha!
That's true.
I shall continue to like you :tongue2:

Thank goodness.

I could never dislike you np!

Aw. :blush: I'm all embarrassed now.

Haha!
I just think we get on rather well!

We do. Similar interests I suppose and often bored and looking for silly conversation in this thread =P

Absolutely!

My future sister in law has just announced the engagement on Facebook! I'm so excited! My brother is the first of us to get married. Or indeed have a long term partner!

Do they have a date yet for the wedding?

I only have one sister and she's already married so that's all over and done with, lol.

I don't think so.
But she loves weddings so it will be well planned!

Lol!
There's 5 of us! One brother has a girlfriend who is completely out of his league (she is a legit model. Just got a new contract in new york)
Other brother has never been bothered with relationships and my sister is only 17 but has a boyfriend. She'll probably get married to someone when she's older. She has her life properly sorted out!
And then there's me. Asexual and aromantic. Lol!

Jasmine asked me if I had a boyfriend and I said no. She asked why and I said 'boys are icky'
And she said 'legit'

I have 2 half brothers, but I can't see the older of the two ever getting married and I'm not really in contact with the other. So I'm safe from sibling weddings :tongue2:

Everyone's different! And boys are absolutely legit icky.

I totally read that as aromatic btw.

Hey Hazel. That's lucky! One sibling wedding was enough for me. =P

I'll probably be the spinster cat lady sibling who never gets married.

Lol Hazel!
I actually love weddings!

They totally are np

Haha! I always read it as aromatic first :p

I would be a crazy cat/dog lady if I were allowed pets

I forgot I've actually been to three weddings =o The ex's brother's (really boring), my uncle's (seagull stole my battered sausage in Brighton and my smart shoes fell apart while I was wearing them) and my sister's in Las Vegas!

Here's a question: if you really were aromatic what spice would you smell like?

I remember you posting about the Vegas one! I was very jealous!

I've been to one wedding!
My cousin. Well, my step dad's cousin but we've always grown up with calling them our cousins because they're closer to my age. And they're a lot of fun!
The wedding was insane. 4 string quartet, 3 course meal, posh church and hotel, hog roast later on, photo booth, photographers, videographers and a DJ!
It was great fun

I'm not actually very familiar with spices!
So I don't know!
What about you?

Yeah Vegas was a life event/massive holiday not just a wedding. =)

Whoa that sounds immense.

I'd be cinnamon. Cinnamon bagel, cinnamon apple crumble, cinnamon doughtnuts...!
