Just what I needed…

Well it’s lunch time, sat in the park and it’s going from nice & sunny to cold & windy!!

I had a great weekend! Went to Chelmsford after work on friday and hung with the people important to me. Loved it! Even going around with them shopping!!! Haha.

Lately I’ve started noticing things changing and think it’s all jaw mass related. My memory is getting worse, reaction times slower, speaking getting worse and the big thing I noticed was my music ability, the knack I have at knowing what song is coming up, is practically gone. I kinda feel like I’m losing myself bit by bit and it’s freaking me out a bit.

Well that’s it for now, might write more later.

Homeward bound!

Well I’m on the train from paddington to thatcham after going to the Royal London hospital. I was scanned and had copious amounts of blood taken! And now I have to wait for the results!

Had a nice chilled weekend relaxing. Parents returned home, which means the cats are no longer my responsibility!!!! Woooo. Enjoyed the new Red Dwarf, but it wasn’t brilliant. Dr Who was good! Little sad bit at the end with the foreshadowing of David tennant’s departure.

Oooo planes. Am near heathrow then!

That’s all for now!

Control yourself, take only what you need from it

I’ve really gotten the MGMT track Kids stuck in my head!! Love it tho!!

I am not happy! I typed a blog last week and didn’t upload it!! How stupid?!?!??

Well I’m a working man now!! 2 weeks into the job and it’s going ok! Not as bad as I thought! some nice people there! My boss is 19 tho… Well she’s not my boss really lol, she’s 2nd in command of my team whilst team leader is off for the week, she’s a good laugh, we like the same music, which gets us thru the day. The guy that started with me is ok, he’s a bit of a player and all that, most of his convos are about booze or women. At lunch and at the end of a day he goes on about wanting a drink and all that, any woman that we pass gets commented on, which can be irritating, but he’s ok. Am on 9-5.30 until further notice, which is cool preferring it at the mo!

Having a relaxing weekend this weekend. Did have plans but they fell thru. The parents are away for the week so it’s just me & the cats here. I must remember that I have to feed them and that! Lol.

Looking forward to next weekend, 4 day weekend, 3 new Red Dwarf eps and the new Dr Who ep! Will be good!!!

Anyway, that’s it for now!

Long time again!

Well it’s been a while since I posted, mostly due to there really being not much to say apart from jobhunting sucks lol.

Well some news, I have a job, not keen on it, it sounds hell!! But can’t be picky! Need the money! But still gonna keep looking for something better. The hours are 12 – 8.30 so seeing if I could do night classes fora tech support qualification is out the window!

Just sat in the sun at the train station after my last sign on! It’s so nice and warm out tho annoyingly I missed the previous train by 30 mins.

Am hoping that, after the debts are paid from my first pay cheque, I can afford a new chair and maybe a new monitor as I broke my chair and the monitor is barely gonna last another week!!! But also want V tickets….

Am gonna miss some bits of being unemployed, like chatting to some people and hanging in the forum! Sounds like I won’t even be at a computer in the new job, let alone have net access! Eek!! Maybe I can sort some wifi access on this thing if o2 are nice

Ahhhh it’s Thursday, which means watching lost once I’m home! love it!

Oh well that’s it for now! More later maybe!!

Boredom….

Well it’s been a while since I wrote last, not much has happened. The usual routine of jobhunting, housework and going to the docs.

Bloomin NHS are making me wait til June for the tests & scans!!! Tho my Doc wants the Royal London to make it sooner, so dunno if that’s a bad sign!

Had haircut & interview this morning. All through it I had a little hair in the back of my mouth, it really bugged me!!! Think it went ok tho.

Had a great chat wit a friend last night, which made me feel better she always puts a smile on my face.

Am annoyed I broke a drumstick tho as I can’t replace it! Not for a month or so sooner I get a job the better!!!

Am loving the mobile library as I am reading lots now. Just about to start either Twilight or Marley & Me, can’t decide!

Post Valentines…..

andythursby — Wed, 18 Feb 2009 02:45:00 +0000

Well Valentines came and went. no cards at all this year! Usually i get the standard one (from a certain someone who doesn’t think i know who it was!), but didn’t this year! Am guessin its cos said lady has a fella now hehe. I just chilled at home, played some xbox, watched some films. ignored it really! I did send one, to a lovely lady indeed

My days have become the same old routine lately, job hunting, wii fit, walking, surfing, and that. god i want a job!! and money!!!! Am trying to make the most of it tho and stay upbeat

Well I am now running on Windows 7, fixed the Wifi problem. Don’t actually know how i fixed it, but thats not the point!! lol. Its wicked!!

oh well, i think its time i headed to bed! night all!

Its saturday, the snow is going and its sunny out!! still, its bloomin freezing!! lol.

having a nice chilled weekend, watching films, playing xbox, chatting to peeps just generally aiming for an easy one!! as much as i intend to paly xbox, i never seem to get round to it! lol.

the stupid snow stopped the mobile library coming round, which means i didn’t get the books i was waiting for!! gotta wait 2 more weeks!! rubbish!!!

Heard about the job yesterday, didn’t get it, but they said they might have a position for me in the next month or so, so here’s hoping!!

can’t believe am gonna be home alone on valentines! it sucks being poor!!! oh well, i’ll find something to do!! hehe.

thats it for now, am needing food…… laters

Must stop having late nights……

andythursby — Fri, 06 Feb 2009 00:32:13 +0000

Well it’s technically it’s friday! I wish I could fall asleep before midnight, but with no decent routine and jaw pain keeping me up late it’s just not happening!

Today was a random day, surfing the net & job hunting. Had some good chats online! The snow was terrible!!! Messed the trains up! My 5 min journey to town was 1 hour! Only to be told there’s no staff in jobcentre to sign on!! Wasted journey!!!

Had a fun time drumming away today I still mess up on coldplay tho!!! Need more practice!!

Had to cancel plans for next week. It sucks big time as was soooo looking forward to it!!! gutted.

It’s new comic book day, but nothing good lost was good tho!!!

Can’t sleep again….

andythursby — Thu, 05 Feb 2009 01:06:39 +0000

Jaw keeping me up again. Damn thing!

It’s snowing again, we have 4 inches!!!! Bugger!!!! It’s gonna mess the trains and I need to get into town!! Nuts.

Had a lil argument wit a friend tonight after I had to cancel going to see them the week after this. It really sucks cos it’s one of the people I miss the most and I was lookin forward to it!!! so bit down at the mo.

Argh!!!!!!!

Oh yea, had interview this morning! Yay. Went ok, but the fact I can’t drive yet may mean I don’t get it!!! booo.

It’s February already??

Was going to post yesterday, but was in a foul mood, but decided was better not to! was just in a bit of pain, plus was stuck on the phone to the NHS, trying to find out when the tests are gonna be done, found out, they don’t want me on painkillers at the mo, which sucks.

had a nice chilled weekend, watched some films, watched some good old Scrubs! The usual jobhunting the last coupla days. same old routine!!!

Just laughing at Jon Stewart on the Daily Show mocking the american politicians for not paying taxes, some bloke spending £400,000 on drivers and cars last year???

i was tempted to go out and make a snowman yesterday, but decided not to lol. there’s still snow out there at the mo, they said it was meant to be worse today, but no more snow coming from the looks of it!

Just watched new Heroes, interesting!!!!!!!!! not saying much until its been on telly.

just a short one from me today!
