There are two main foci for my thoughts today:
Is the future bright?
Wee (or rather, my lack of)
Question that has bugged me before, but really irritated me just now while I sat staring at the hook on the back of the door and still failing to get anywhere. I didn’t realise that my own worst enemy [...]

Oh, and don’t forget that first thing in the morning I also take Femodene so imagine (if you want to) a little tiny white pill in with all that lot as well. Seven days of these fucking stupid tablets - the little yellow and white ones four fucking times a day.
I am fucked off.

In the space of a matter of hours overnight, the bladder problem worsened. We’re talking real problem with weeing and when I do succeed (and believe me, succeed is the only word to use here), everything is pink because of blood. There’s also back pain. I am unable to sit for too long, unable [...]

I totally crashed out last night. My tummy and bladder problem was just hanging around all day, draining my energy which was good because there was so much nervous energy humming around me that I might have exploded without it. I met TBD for a drink but it waas cranberry all the way and I [...]

I stupidly read my horoscope this morning. Three different sources. All are bad:
Mixed messages can excite you one moment and then take the wind out of your sails the next. You may be led to believe that others will come to your aid only to discover that your needs may not coincide with theirs. If [...]

I had a terrible night’s sleep last night. I was shattered when I hit the sack. I didn’t even bother drying my hair off after a hot bath, just collapsed under the covers and felt my heavy eyelids droop. But something woke me. And after that I was tossing and turning all night. I eventually [...]

I know some of you wonder whether my supporting ladies who are coming to terms with precancerous changes and cervical cancer diagnoses is a wise idea.
Sometimes I wonder if I am indirectly doing myself harm by continuing to engage with Jo’s Trust and not making a clean break, drawing a line under what happened at [...]

Crammed into a Southern train carriage this morning, I noticed a man doing the sudoku puzzle in this morning’s edition of The Metro. Nothing unusual about that of course. I do wonder what ticking each completed line says about someone though? And when he finished the entire puzzle he put a big tick through the [...]

Today would be…
My 3 year anniversary with Beardy
My 8 year anniversary with First Love (isn’t that a little odd that I got together with two separate guys on the same day but 5 years apart?)
It is also The Mother’s birthday. She is in LA irritating Americans and leaving me in peace, hurrah!
It is also exactly [...]

My mobile rang this morning. A witheld number. I thought that it must be a recruitment consultant or someone calling about the PR work I am about to get involved with for Jo’s Trust, so I cheerfully answered.
The voice on the other end of the line cracked and wobbled tearfully. It was one of my [...]

I have spent today crippled by the worst pounding headache you ever knew. I haven’t been able to move from bed and have slept for most of the day, getting up to have a shower, but then returning to bed straight after.
I met with Fire Man last night for a few drinks though. I looked [...]

There’s a low feeling in the office this afternoon. We’re never exactly climbing the walls with excitement or joy here, but usually people feel alright and there’s a fairly decent feel about the place. I like my peers at work. We are a good team. I don’t think the managers could manage their way out [...]

Sorry all, but I am not in the mood to blog today. I’m tired and stressed out and fed up as usual.
But briefly:
Had a great long weekend away from the stress and noise of London.
I am the most well-behaved pillion The Mechanic has ever known. He says it is a dream riding with me.
Helmet fits [...]

As I am a bit of a soup connaisseur (some might even say that I am The Last Word where soup is concerned), I thought I would share the following with you.
Although it looks like a bowl of vomit and diarrhoea, Covent Garden Toulouse Sausage and Puy Lentil soup is actually rather nice.
Not as tasty [...]

I know this will seem really mean and that I shouldn’t laugh about this, and I don’t want to appear ungrateful, but…
I just got this picture text message from Fire Man:

I had almost forgotten that he even exists! It does seem a little pathetic [...]

Some girls get cards. Some girls get flowers. Some girls get teddies (both the bears and the lingerie). Some girls get chocolates. Some girls get all of that.
And then there are girls like me.
Click here to see what I got… I’m not even kidding!
Happy Valentines Day one and all.
Much love from me to you xx

I am not usually a bitchy person when it comes to petty things like a choice of outfit, but when I got to the bus stop this morning, I really had to do a double-take at this woman’s odd coat and hat combo. Just what was she thinking when she bought them? It looks like [...]

Last week I received an email from the lovely Peach asking if I would like to take part in a bloggers’ project, a complilation of stories from the lives of bloggers that we can put together into a book and sell, donating proceeds to charity.
I’m so tired at the moment and I can feel it [...]

My camera phone has not done these bruises justice. This is two days later and they are deep blue and green. Just take my word for it that they hurt, and that when Polly went charging headfirst into my knee yesterday evening while having a mad half hour on my bed, I actually yelped out [...]

I am so tired. I am always tired. Do I need to go to the doctor about this? Constantly fatigued. Can’t be bothered to type. But I have news, news that I want to share with you.
Over the weekend, things happened. Apart from me being tired.
I learnt that The Mechanic has got me a proper [...]

That is because I just laughed my arse off!
Events Girl just came up to my desk and said: “Hey Soupy, do you want to hear some news that might irritate you?”
I smiled and said “no” which stopped her in her tracks for a second before she realised that I was joking. She continued: “That guy [...]

Text message yesterday afternoon from a number that isn’t in my mobile’s phonebook:
“Hey trouble, how’s your day? I’m on a train! And now you have to guess where to or from! What fun - although you’ll probably have a smart answer… x x x”
Took a second to register. Then I realised it was FM.
I haven’t [...]

It was Economist Girl’s birthday the other day and we clubbed together in the office to buy her a helium balloon in the shape of Nemo from the Disney film Finding Nemo.
EG then went away on holiday…
…And left Nemo with us, complete with instructions…

This weekend I had my first proper pillion ride. I have only ever ridden pillion once before now, and I don’t think it really counts as it involved going around the block at 20mph.
We didn’t go very far, just zoomed around the industrial estate as the bike needs an MOT at the moment, but it [...]
