Daily Tip:
Should I stay?
07.11.05 (10:23 pm)   [edit]
Should I stay?  I have a nice new blog up and running on 360 now, and I'm thinking of staying there - it's got some nice features and I can post my pictures freely.  But it's an invitation only blog and you need a yahoo id.  All of my blog friends are already connected to me there, so before I abandon this one I thought I'd check to see if anyone who lurks on this would like an invite or would desperately want me to stay.
 
Bombing in London
07.07.05 (1:46 am)   [edit]

Well, I'm in the thick of it right now, and it's not much fun.  I work very close to some of the stations (to the extent that I've been worried about Si all morning, but he's ok too).  Everything all morning has been horribly confused, no-one really knowing what's going on.  It's now been pretty much established that it's the work of terrorism.


Well, first I'd heard of it was this morning when I got into work and Lorenda mentioned they'd been an explosion at Liverpool Street (close to me) - it was initially put down to a power surge.  Then they just kept on coming.  There's a scared, shocked atmosphere here now - can't believe it.  No-one knows how we're getting home, we're not allowed to leave the building, no-one can believe this.  And we're still very scared that there'll be another explosion.  Very scared.


Fucking bastards.  Rush hour trains and buses - evil fucking bastards.  I'm so lucky all my friends are safe, but I'm shaking like a leaf.  Police, ambulances, fire brigades zooming past my building near-constantly for hours.  I want to go home.


I just can't believe this.

 
Desperate for a job
07.04.05 (5:04 am)   [edit]
So worried about being unemployed come september that I am seriously considering going back into teaching. Must be mad but am so scared of being unable to pay the bills.
Well, Derfel and Stitch...came home from work on Thursday and was having a little chat with Stitch when I realised that she had a huge tumour which had appeared out of nowhere on her groin. She couldn't balance, stand, scratch, climb or anything, so I knew her time had come - she was an old girl indeed! I decided she'd have to be put to sleep - painful though it was, and it really was. But Derfel, poor baby Derfel... he's had myco for a long time, was trying to pretend that he was beating it and that he wasn't wasting away, but he really was. Had lost a tonne of weight and was breathing very painfully. We realised he didn't have much left in him. Poor baby - he was only 1 and a half.
So, they were put to sleep on Friday. We miss them so much, we really do.
We had a great weekend despite this - Si took me to see Phantom of the opera for my birthday - it really was the most amazing show, I so want to go and see it again! ASAP!!
 
Happy birthday to me!
