All in all its been a blimmin stressful day, from start to finish...or not as it hasnt ended yet. No major stresses, just a whole load of silly little things.

It all started with the drive in this morning, I left the flat really early at 6.50 thinking I'd have an easy drive in cos it was so early. But I was wrong. It was a really annoying drive, getting stopped at every traffic light, nearly run off the road by an HGV (either I was in his blind spot or he just didnt check his mirror....or he felt like running Dave & I off the motorway), then being stuck in a wee trail of cars which were all stuck behind a lorry on the back road, we're all just trundling along at 45-50mph which was fine I wasnt bothering, until some guy decides to overtake me...WHAT IS THE POINT? There's loooads of us stuck behind the lorry, he's not going to get anywhere. So I was stuck behind that eejit until we got to Irvine. Then I got stopped at EVERY roundabout. From my flat to work there are 9 roundabouts...7 of which are in Irvine! From the back road to site its about a 5 minute drive.....basically 5 minutes of driving around roundabouts.

Once in, I had a few hours of relative calmness, as much calm as there can be working with that crowd. Late morning I decide to go to Tesco. The minute I got in the car, it started raining....heavily. I gets to Tesco and cannot find a parking space, this is an absolutely huge Tesco, its 1130am, there's like a million spaces, but can I find one? No. Eventually gets parked a few miles away (or so it seemed in the peein rain).

Bimble around Tesco, the usual few mini rages about pensioners and people who cant control their trolleys, but all in all was ok. Top of my list was 40 watt small golf ball bayonet cap clear lightbulbs and a spicy chicken pizza, (see my previous post for photo of that), oh and some sandwiches for lunch. Got a few messages, left Tesco, the sun was shining and it was dry.....as soon as I stepped foot onto the carpark the rain started. Found Dave, chucked the shopping into the boot, started driving back to work.

On way back to work, tried to phone Bellend a million times to tell him I'd got him a sandwich and a few tins of soup, couldnt get him to answer the phone for love nor money, this particularly gave me the rage (I really like Sugababes new single btw - entirely unrelated to this paragraph but its my blog, I'll do what I like).

Got a hold of him when i got back into work, fed him, fed myself and had a rubbish afternoon. At one point, I left my cabin to go over to Jacobs...guess what happened the minute I stepped out the door? It rained. I swear I had a wee rain cloud following me today.


I'm sooo bored in work just now, I was really busy this afternoon but I was bored out of my brain. Thank God for Kerry & Louise that's all I can say! Was held back til 5.30 cos I wasnt given the Safety minutes etc until 4pm....I dont know why he gives me these minutes on Thursdays, he holds the flaming meeting on Tuesdays, I'll be saying something about this in the near future, from now on he'll be writing the minutes out on Tuesday afternoons! So this gave me the rage too, because its a hair night tonight. I'm only just finished doing my hair, I cant afford to lose an hour on hair nights!

I'm not even going to start about D.

So I got home, (stress free drive home yay!), had beautiful low fat pizza thing, ran lovely big bubble bath, got in with my book, washed my hair etc....then gets the bath heebeejeebies and have to get out halfway thru just after I'd put the conditioner in my hair. I ended up sitting in an empty bath with my head under the tap, another fine mess I got myself into.

After hair is dried and straightened and I'm just about to collapse with the heat, I decide to change the wee lightbulb with the new bulbs I bought in Tesco. But no. I bought 60 watt screw cap bulbs. Not 40 watt bayonet cap.

So I'm now in bed, with an apple Bacardi (this stuff is amazing, its not an alcopop, its 40% or something), Eddie the Teddy and my hot water bottle trying to de-stress!

Lets hope tomorrow goes better! It has to......its Friday baaaaby!!!!

You fed Bellend? WHY?

Because he is a growing lad.

The only thing that grows is his ego
