glitz and glamour

well before you all get confused about my new life down under let me tell you that its not all GLITZ and GLAMOUR. its saturday night and i am on the computer. had to get michael to drive me to the bottle shop for a bottle of plonk to keep me sane. my one and only friend in oz couldnt make it out tonight so i am destined to sit regularly checking to see if there is anyone on msn!!! not that its a great chav cos i am knackered. michael was on the piss last night wetting the head of baby eden. he staggered home around 2.30am, pronounced he was fxxxed and fell into bed, wailing 'help me' when unfastening the buttons on his jeans proved just too much! he then fell totally unconscious. that was friday night! i was on the msn giving power of my lifeline (laptop) to my sister in law so that she could fix my webcam which had decided that it didnt want to work in oz! it got to 3 am and the snoring could be heard down the street and i was getting a little tired so it was off to bed for me. today was a total write off cos the hungover person just dozed on and off in one of the only two chairs in the house, much to the annoyance of the kids who wanted to be driven to A, B or C! i however, procured my place on my deck chair in the garden and worshipped the sun god, finished harry potter and the half blood prince (nat you never said it was dumbledore that died!!!") and every available magazine in the house. eventually michael and the kids emerged from the house and had a rather laughable game of piggy in the middle aussie rules of course. as per usual it ended in tears, murrae cos he couldnt win and stevi cos mikey threw the ball and it hit the tip of her fingers. time to shop for tea me thinks!!!!!!

oops, sorry about dumbledore. Didn't want to tell you cos Dave told me before it happened and then I nearly couldn't bring myself to read it.

I reckon they'll bring him back to life or he'll play some really important part in the afterlife?

Hope you have a good shift today with your THREE patients!

Nat, i had more than 3 patients today. there were 3 of us for 12 patients. ok i was supernumery but i still ended up doing drugs, ivabs and collecting patients from theatre on my own. supposed to be supernumery all week but cant see that lasting!!!!! am actually working a 72 hour fortnight but the 2 hours will go to adl hours. i am working full time for 5 days in one week and then full time for 4 days the next. it means that i get a long weekend every now and then.
yeah i bet dumbledore is still going to feature heavily in the books (or is the next one the last?) hes got to, harry cant do it without him!!!!!!!

shazza said...

fit you like!!!!! how many times have you been pissed on your week off? no excuse for fingers not working, hands manage to find the bottle of beer and then find the mouth so buttons shouldnt be a problem!!!! yes she has but everyone has stuff on at the weekend, she is managing fine tho. shes bagged a babysitting job a couple of nights a weeks so shes getting money and the girl she babysits for waxes her legs and eyebrows for her, shes happy enough!!!! get saving!!!!!
