I know the feeling
I've been on benefits forever and I hate being ill and not being able to work!

It has indeed!
I love Mike Wozniak

shadow-light 21-05-2021 06:36 PM

ye, I keep forcing myself ito work and it never lasts... I think I need to accept that I need to just not work for a bit and get my head sorted





Mike Wozniak is NOTHING like I expected him to be :laugh:



I also enjoy Jamail (I'm 99% sure i've misspelt his name) and his reactions to Alex

Cacoethes 21-05-2021 06:43 PM

Sounds like a good plan

I know! He's definitely my favourite

Jamali is hilarious!

shadow-light 21-05-2021 06:46 PM

you ever seen Man Down? It was written by and stars Greg Davis, and Mike Wozniak is in it. I am honestly starting to think his chaacter in that was loosely based on the real Mike :laugh:

nonperson 21-05-2021 06:51 PM

Oh you guys have reminded me that I have watched some of this series after all, but only the first episode!

I'm also changed and the oven is on for dinner.

Cacoethes 21-05-2021 06:58 PM

No I've never seen that Hazel
Might have to give it a go!

I hope you manage to catch up soon np!

Yay well done!

nonperson 21-05-2021 07:14 PM

I'm sure I'll catch up eventually. Might have to do a series binge watch.

shadow-light 21-05-2021 07:27 PM

i still need to get round to watching task master series 1, 2 and 3 at some point

Cacoethes 21-05-2021 07:37 PM

Let us know when you do np so we can discuss it!!!

Yes you do Hazel!

nonperson 21-05-2021 08:22 PM

I think it gets good from series 4... but then again series 1 did give the world Tree Wizard ;-)

Cacoethes 21-05-2021 09:29 PM

I LOVED tree wizard!

nonperson 21-05-2021 11:29 PM

I know, that's why I said it ;-)

Cacoethes 22-05-2021 02:20 AM

Awww you remembered!

Tree wizard tree wizard! Oh my god it's anothe balloon!!

Pomegranate 22-05-2021 03:08 AM

New task master cast was released as well!

nonperson 22-05-2021 09:11 AM

Oh I really am so far behind then!

How's everyone this morning?

I have literally zero idea who 2 of them are :laugh:

tamobhuuta 22-05-2021 10:27 AM

Hi guys! I'm on holiday and when I got up to go to the loo I got lost in my bedroom, didn't know right from left.

Cacoethes 22-05-2021 10:54 AM

Morning everyone!

shadow-light 22-05-2021 11:03 AM

feels like so long since anyone has said "I am on holiday"!



got much planned or more just a different scenery/seeing people type thig?

Cacoethes 22-05-2021 11:04 AM

Nope! Apart from waiting for deliveries.
I've had one. Two to go!
I got some very pretty new Converse!

Will you get to do stuff when he gets home?

shadow-light 22-05-2021 11:07 AM

maybe... we probably have to go visit his parents as we havn;t seen them for 2 weeks... I hate visitiing his parents, I feel nasty saying that but it's true. At least it's not this house though as so sick of this house



the deliveries anything fun? Also... I thought you weren't meant to be spending more money :P

tamobhuuta 22-05-2021 11:26 AM

I'll just be relaxing . But we are going to the pub for dinner later.

Cacoethes 22-05-2021 11:30 AM

Well, it'll be a change of scenery if nothing else

I got some new Converse and some new dresses and Harry Potter pajamas and fluffy socks!.
No I am not meant to be spending money...:p
The consultant said I need to sit down with staff and look at my finances :ermm:
I am WAY to scared to do that!!.

That'll be nice tamo :)

nonperson 22-05-2021 12:18 PM

Harry Potter pyjamas are surely a necessary purchase!

However, finances are important so best to get it under control sooner than later I think. You've got some nice treats for now so maybe uninstall the apps from your phone/tablet temporarily?

/nagging =P

Relaxing on holiday definitely sounds nice and the pub dinner too, Tamo!

I never used to like visiting the bf's parents either, Hazel =/

Cacoethes 22-05-2021 12:28 PM

Hell yes!!

That's probably a good idea np!

Are you up to much today?

nonperson 22-05-2021 12:32 PM

It is a really good idea ;-)

Nah. Went for a nice walk with my friend and her kiddos (got to hold a very cute little person's hand for a while) and I really should be weeding the garden but think today is not the day (excuses excuses :wow:)... and food shop later of course.

Cacoethes 22-05-2021 12:42 PM

Haha! :p

Aww that sounds nice.
It's far too cold to be out in the garden!
Oh no! The dreaded food shop!

nonperson 22-05-2021 12:50 PM

Yeah, very cold and wet. If I procrastinate for a bit longer it'll actually start raining and make the decision for me. What's one more day of ignoring the weeds... It is getting so bad though, I have a month-ish until the annual garden "competition"/inspection and it's looking worse than ever and my motivation is lower than ever... =/

And yeah, dreaded food shop. Might try to go a bit earlier this evening though.

Cacoethes 22-05-2021 01:25 PM

Ah, I've fallen into the 'what's one more day' trap before!
Motivation is tough to find though

Sounds like a plan. Hopefully it won't be too busy!

nonperson 22-05-2021 01:44 PM

I get caught by that trap all the time, never seem to learn.

It was alright last week when I went earlier in the evening.

Cacoethes 22-05-2021 01:46 PM

Same!

That's good

shadow-light 22-05-2021 02:49 PM

Within 10 seconds of arriving at the bf's parents house we were being moaned at :wow:

shadow-light 22-05-2021 02:52 PM

I used to do food shopping at around 3am as the shops were empty :laugh:

I find about 3-4 PM isnt too bad, and around 7 isnt too bad either

Cacoethes 22-05-2021 03:20 PM

Oh dear Hazel!

I can't remember the last time I did a food shop. Even when I was at home!

nonperson 22-05-2021 03:30 PM

Aw, you'll be back at Asda soon, Beckie.

Yeah, 7ish is what I'm aiming for today. Usually I go at 9pm when it's extra quiet.

Anyhoo, I'm just having lunch because I've spent the last two hours "fixing" the oven. It packed up while trying to cook some nuggets for lunch... blew a bank of trip switches so I pulled it all out and cleaned up the 8 years worth of dust and grease and food residue and onion that had slipped down the sides and dog food from underneath and a receipt and a 10p coin! So gross. Took apart the plug in case the fuse had gone in there because it wasn't even turning on when I reset the trip switches...

...turns out I didn't actually turn the individual trip for the oven back on... so it would have been a 30 second job instead if I'd just looked properly... but at least it's all clean now.

nonperson 22-05-2021 03:48 PM

Ok so the oven is not fixed... it is not heating up. Guess that's why it tripped out. >.<

Cacoethes 22-05-2021 03:54 PM

Oh noooo!!
What a disaster!

nonperson 22-05-2021 04:06 PM

And also stupid me threw out the defrosted nuggets which I still could have cooked had I remembered the top oven/grill that still works!

I'm clearly on a roll of dumbness this afternoon >.<

Cacoethes 22-05-2021 04:07 PM

Eeep! Not good!

nonperson 22-05-2021 04:17 PM

No but at least I can ignore the problem now and still cook food. I rely on my oven so much...

not_so_insig 22-05-2021 04:17 PM

Eeek nonperson!

Hello all.

nonperson 22-05-2021 04:23 PM

I know, total drama right >.<

How're you, Dawn?

not_so_insig 22-05-2021 04:24 PM

I am ok thanks nonperson.

nonperson 22-05-2021 04:34 PM

Good good!

Cacoethes 22-05-2021 04:58 PM

Hello Dawn!

nonperson 22-05-2021 05:03 PM

Anyone watching Eurovision tonight?

not_so_insig 22-05-2021 05:41 PM

I am watching Eurovision even though we won't win.

nonperson 22-05-2021 05:47 PM

The winning is irrelevant anyway, Eurovision is all about the lolz.

Cacoethes 22-05-2021 05:47 PM

Nope I'm not! Haven't watched it in many years!
The only song I've ever liked is hard rock hallelujah by Lordi. Finland I think!
My favourite band, poets of the fall, are also Finnish. Maybe Finland just produce good music!
