Friends
Just reading my mates blogs this morning, and I didnt realise how unhappy one of them was. I feel really bad... I should of been a better friend. And all iv been doing is moaning about how crap one of my friends is, and I myself could be a better friend. As from today im not going to moan about my old friend anymore.. and im going to be a better friend to all my others!! I have some pretty good mates and I consider myself to be pretty lucky in that respect.
So im sorry if iv been crap, im going to make more effort from now on.
So im sorry if iv been crap, im going to make more effort from now on.
Todays not going to be a good day
First things first, I thought I was okay this morning, I didn’t feel too hungover…. But I made myself a tea instead of a coffee and I always have coffee in the morning. Something’s not right there is it????
Anyway last night - got picked up by the friend I was telling you about, who is also having problems with the “friend” (we’ll call her Lucy – cause that’s not her name!) . Turning up together would annoy HER, but fortunately nothing was said – There were 5 of us in total - let the drinking commence!!
I noticed immediately that she was wearing the jewellery I got her for her birthday, and I asked her what else she got. She said her mum brought her some PJ’s as well as me… and she couldn’t wait to say “my mum’s were from primark too” 1-0 to her. I turned round to “Lucy” and said “yeah these PJ’s had a picture of a cow on them” Subtle 1-1 ha ha I will win!!!
Pretty much all night she didn’t talk to me, and actually didn’t dance with me, you know how you do? She was all over Lucy though! Keeping talking to her about friends from work, and her fella. The most conversation I got was her showing me a picture on her phone. Totally snubbed me basically. Im not one to sulk (much) so I carried on drinking and generally taking in the atmosphere.
We moved round some pubs saw a few people I know which is always good. Pretty early on one of the girls left as she was at work the next day. Things were going pretty steady. Went to the club (not my choice, but im not complaining, it was after all her night). Got some drinks… and Lucy decided to treat us all to come champagne which was a lovely thought. I declined though as im not supposed to drink anything strong, and also the last time I had champagne was my birthday and I was sick, so she got 3 little bottles and a bottle of magners for me (I think I must of drank my body weight in magners - LUSH)!!!
So we stood on the dance floor having a bop and they were drinking this champagne…
When they’d finished I offered to get HER a birthday drink and the reply I got was “no no you save your money for the house” 2-1 so instead of taking offence I thought “yeah iv saved myself a few quid there – who’s the real loser” 2-2
I was dancing with one of Lucy’s friends and I moved away from the group slightly, funny as I was having a better time elsewhere! Just as luck would have it as the music got good we went home. Okay so it was about 1.30 so not exactly early. I said bye to my mates and we toddled off out. I wanted chips and so did Lucy so the others went to get pizza. Lucy tried to be silly and pay for her own chips, but she’d brought me a fair few drinks, and so I insisted on paying (im only mentioning this to highlight the fact that I like to pay my way - im sure I mentioned in a previous blog that this friend made me feel quite poor - not that im unhappy about my financial situation as money’s money, you either have it or not, your no better than someone if you have it than someone who doesn’t)
ANYWAY!!! So after we got the chips we went to meet the others in the pizza shop. We sat munching for a while and then went to get a taxi. I was instructed to get in the front as I was the first drop off. Well got outside my house and the taxi was £4.90. Lucy immediately said not to pay it all (like I wouldn’t) and sort of half heartily the other 2 said “oh yeah, don’t pay it all” they couldn’t of said it less enthusiastically. One of them actually said “I wish it was only £4.90 to my house” lol I was like “yeah? I think it’s expensive to say im in walking distance of town” anyway, I paid the £4.90 and said bye slamming the door behind me.
Got in the house and got a text from Lucy saying that when the taxi driver dropped them off our “friend” only paid £3. lol so much for being loaded hey?
Im sure there is stuff im forgetting to put
1 – PJ’s comment - check
2 – Drink comment - check
3 – Taxi comment - check
Nope I think that’s all. Well if I remember anything I’ll let you know.
I really doubt now that I will hear anything from my friend again, only probably when she moved into her house in “berry hill” which is in fact Mansfield…. Lol hilarious..
Anyway.. Ciao for now, im going to get some hangover food!!! Yummy!!
Oh and first thing this morning I opened my post and had a letter from the doctors saying I was due for a smear! I don’t think its going to be a good day!!

Snobby kids
Taken from a discussion on Maxxd forums the more I think about spoilt little kids at this time of year it irritates me.
I believe that all the real Christmas spirit has been ruined by mardy spoilt little kids. When I was younger I was lucky if I got a bike OR games console (back in the days of Master System & Mega Drives) not both! And certainly not PC’s, Laptops, endless games and consoles year in year out (xbox one year DS the next). I think kids these days are spoilt too much, and it’s the parents fault. Allowing their kids to act like little brats is quite frankly appalling!
I can understand that parents want the best for their kids and buying them nice presents will make them happy. But there is a limit between nice and over the top. I think kids should be grateful for what they are given, not annoyed at what they aren’t given. I would have never had the nerve to EXPECT loads of presents, and was always genuinely surprised when my parents brought me something fabulous, but to expect this year in year out is wrong. To allow your children to act like this is shocking, and it’s the parent’s responsibility to bring their kids up proper with manners and RESPCT.
What kind of adults are all these kids going to turn into? Nasty snidey snobby teenagers with attitude problems if they don’t get the right designer clothes (I see kids in town dressed in more expensive clothes than me), dripping in the latest technology. They don’t know the value of money which I think is terrible.
Mobile phones are another topic of annoyance for me… why the hell do parents buy their kids mobile phones at young ages, and insist on keeping them in credit??? I don’t want to hear no bull about it’s so the parents know where their kids are cause its bollocks. My mum and dad let me out without a mobile phone, the streets were just as dangerous when I was young as what they are now – it’s just that paedophiles are more publicised now. God forbid should a teenage run out of credit on said mobile phone… what the hell are they spending their pocket money on?! And surely the child is more at danger as they are more attractive to a mugger with an ipod and latest mobile phone hanging round their ungrateful little necks.
Having one big present a year never did me any harm, and quite frankly I enjoy working hard for my nice things, and I will appreciate things more because of the hard work that’s gone into achieving them.
These are of course all my own opinions, I know everyone won’t agree with me, although they will be the people that are getting their kids a laptop and an Xbox this year (and an Ipod off their gran)

Busy day
What a busy day I’ve had today! We’ve finally got our budget review work sorted and my supervisor went off to the meeting with Finance earlier (that’s a load off my mind… perhaps things at work will calm down now).
My Supervisors has been really pleased with my work of late, and I think I may of said before I’m showing 2 members of staff what to do at the mo, well anyway she said today she’s really pleased with me, and all the hard work I do (couldn’t cope without me blah blah) and even though iv agreed with my team of 4 that I’m not getting xmas presents this year so don’t want any back, she’s going to get me a little something which is just to say thanks. How cool is that?!! She’s picked me out some underware so just wanted to know my size, its gorge too! I’m exited! Really nice cause its personal too, and were are close.
I was supposed to be meeting my Friend Kate for a drink tonight, but she’s been unwell so we’ve rescheduled for tomorrow, so im seeing Carl. I’m getting my hair dyed tomorrow! Might post a pic if it looks any good, should be loads darker.
Came home from work today and my mammar's brought me a brolly, and my granddad has asked my mum if im well (as i seemed thin) i havent seen my grandparents for a while, but its nice to know they think about me. Pretty normal you migt assume, but my other gran is pretty selfish, so im a happy bunny!

No good mates
Well what a fucking fiasco! I really dont know why I bother trying to be nice to some people!!!! My so called mate that I have been having problems with recently has completely fucked me off big time.... and if I hadnt of got a new outfit to go out in, I wouldnt be bothering going out for her birthday.
I text her first thing yesterday morning to try to arrange going up to give her ber birthday present in time for today. Well she seemed to think that visiting her fellas parents was more important than coming to see her so called friend, so at 11.30 she turns up at my house.
The first thing i say is "oh.. on your own?" expecting her to be with her fella. "no" she says "he's out in the car", puzzled I look at her and say "arent you stopping"? "yes she replies He's going to read his paper in the car". Now I dont think its just me but this seems rather odd dont you think? So I tell her to get him to come in and i'll make him a drink "no he's okay honest he's reading his paper" I think this is realy ignorant of him but balls to him I lead her into the living room.
Sure enough after about 5 or 6 mins she says "i'd better get off". "Yes" I reply "oh and by the way and im not getting you anything for Christmas im too skint" is all i can say to stop myself bitch slapping her there and then!
I cant beleive that after all the though and effort I put into getting her a nice present, she a) blatently came round to collect it from me (minimal chit chat involved) and b) her fella was that ignorant to sit in the car! And you know what!?? ON my birthday this year her and her fella came round to mine as sat with me for hours while I made them endless cups of tea when all i wanted to do was sleep cause i was hanging!!! how fucking rude!
Im not being taken for a C*nt no more I tell you.... Iv been talking to a friend of hers who is also having some problems and she had a nightmare with her at the weekend too! I realy really hate the fact tha she's not interested in being our friends anymore after all these years, the only explanation being that she now has a fella. Im not a nasty person, but iv got to the point now where i cant wait for the day it all come crashing down cause she'll realise then that she cant act like she has been doing. Everyone knows not to ditch your mates for a fella surely???
Roll on Friday is all I can say, lets hope I get pissed enough to tell her exactly how I feel

Apology letter
Went out for a nice meal last night with the girls from college to thw Widecome. My mate who I havent heard from is part of that group but couldnt make it. Usually I would of attempted to re-arrange when everyone could make it, but thought better of that this time! Anyway, i did something which i never do when i eat out - have 3 courses!!!! I just kept thinking of all the calories!!!! lol was rather full but battled on! (are you proud?)
Got home about 11.30 ish and made myself a cuppa and played on the net for a bit. I was peturbed to find that no one was online (how shit is everyone) so i ended up going to sleep (boring).
Woke up late this morning and had a md dash to get to the post office to post a parcel before they shut. I was pleased to discover a letter from the Holiday Inn, apologising for the crapness that we experienced! Shame i didnt get any money back but a letter of aplogy is still cool (not £170 odd cool, but cool all the same).
Im off shopping with Jay this afternoon, want to pick up a black top for Friday night. Im out with my so called "mate" for her birthday, and if im doing to have a crap time im going to do it looking fabulous I tell you!!!!
I also want to jazz up my blog later, i chose a new lay-out last night, but i want the same sort of thing and Fiona and Wiggy where at the top they have tabs to different pages... so guys if you can tell me how you did that id be well chuffed, as i want to include an online food-diray and maybe some pictures??
PS im also struggling with titles for my blogs...
