What a horrible day!

Swearing Jesus

Funniest thing I've heard and seen in a long while. Speaking of which I have not been here for a while as I have been rant raving instead!

Rant Rave Forum

Give Bush some smarts!
This is a cool game, which is deceptively hard to play, but worth working at as the reward is to get to hear some Bushisms straight from the Bush's mouth! (And if you fail, you are as stupid as him!)

A working Sunday today. I got home from one shift at 8:30am and I'm just about to pack my bag for another long one. 5 hours, sleep in, 14 hours, sleep in, home. Stressful. Can't wait til next week which is going to be more normal. Still got my cold, but it is fading. Today, walked KTK and Specks on the dunes and relaxed around the house. Posting to the forum and watching the Grand Prix. Exciting end. But my laziness is coming to a close so I shall go.

Mowing the Lawn

Or cutting the grass. This was what I did this afternoon, as a) I was actually home and not at work, b)the sun was amazingly out and c)the grass was high as an elephant's arse. Well, a baby elephant anyway. A midget baby elephant with growth problems, but even so. It needed to be done. I'm not sure it has helped my cold at all. It is hopefully at its height, last night it was pretty rough. The day before I was on a highly exciting course (called Manual Handling) and kept having to blow my nose, which isn't too good in front of a bunch of people I don't know too well! Back to work again tomorrow, which sucks. Could have done with a couple of days off but the course saw to that. After this couple of weeks of hell is over I am taking it easy and not doing any over time. I can't believe it is nearly June. At least the weather is starting to come to terms with it!

In the news: Bush might have to use his veto over stem cells. BBC NEWS | World | Americas | US House backs stem cell funding The amazing thing is that some Republicans have voted in favour. Anyway, enough politics!

Jill! Here is some non-political stuff!

I have a cold, and I am not happy about it.. My legs ache, my throat is very sore and uncomfortable, I am starting to sniffle, and my ears are blocked. Plus I feel like shite. SO that doesn't bode well for my 14 hour work day, followed by sleep-in, does it? No. My only hope is to be able to buy enough medications to sink the titanic (of colds) before or during work.

Today, after an horrible night of sleep (see above) I woke to find a thick misty fog outside, and I have to ask myself, where the bloomin nora is spring gone? i.e. sun, gentle breezes and light happy showers! Some people say it is going to be a heatwave this summer (after a wet spring) but I have not read anyone official agree with that. Anyway, I don't want a heatwave, just a reasonable spell of dry sunshine! Not much to ask is it?

Finally, an old but funny joke:

Why do girls wear make-up and perfume?

Because they're ugly and they smell.

Cracks me up every time!!
