Weird…But In A Good Way

Erm..yep that’ll be me!!

Last night between 6 and 7 was football training, Just like it is every Wednesday, BUT for some stupid reason last night I’d convinced myself that it was between 7 and 8. Guess who turned up just at the end of the match? Guess who is now not very popular with thier son ?
No amount of bribery will cheer him up! He is still sulking and I quote him as saying “Next time I tell you we’re late you’ll listen to me wont you!!.”
Cheeky little…..ummm well.

Also my younger sister, Emma, took her driving test today. She passed first time, I’m now unsure as to whether I’ll ever get round to learning to drive, If I dont pass first time also she’ll never let me live it down, although I really, really, really want to be able drive, (Despite the absolute terror I feel whenever I’ve ventured behind the wheel before and the panicky feeling I get just thinking about it). The older I get the wider my circle of friends gets and the more travelling I seem to have to do So to be able to drive would save me a lot of time on buses/trains/taxis, although I probablly wouldn’t get as much reading done!

Todays Thursday, tomorrows Friday and the weekend begins, as per usual I have no plans. Its my brothers birthday tomorrow but I know I wont see him, I might just hole myself up in the house with a bottle of wine and finally get round to watching season 4 of 24, or I could invite people round for a film night, or…oh I dont know, the possibilites are endless.
As I’m sure I’ve said before…It’s better having nothing to do when you have someone to do it with!

P.S If anybody reading this was watching crap daytime television today and happened to switch onto “Brainteaser” dinnertime….That was my Grandad playing!
Didn’t he do well….semi finals….if anyone taped it can I have a copy only I forgot it was on and didn’t watch it oopppss!!

Anyone who knows me well will be aware that I virtually live in my converse trainers, They are so comfortable and they go with ANYTHING, The only place I cant really get away with wearing them is in work where I have a lovley pair of FLAT black shoes with pink (I like to be different) stripes on them, So why in a fit of GOD KNOWS WHAT this morning did I decide to wear heels to work??

And no, not a nice sensible pair of clunky platforms or a pair of decent wedges but stillettos…

…Stillettos, in a job that requires me to be on my feet ALL DAY.

…Stillettos, even though I knew I’d got some errands to do before I could come home from work and kick them off,

…Bloody god forsaken 2 1/2 inch stilletto heels in the rain!!!
I MUST BE MAD, and now also in a quite significant ammount of pain..

..on the bright side (my girly bit coming out) I also wore a skirt/suit as opposed to a trouser/suit to work which I also rarely do but had some really nice comments and the shoes did make my legs look great, HA!!

Rant over… Had a really good weekend Friday night I went to my mom’s and ordered curry with my sister Hmmm Rogan Josh, saturday I went shopping with friends in Walsall, and on the night I went to see “Corpse Bride” the new Tim Burton motion-stop animation. It was brilliant, the story was good witha fantastic cast of “voices” and in typical Tim Burton fashion the
detail/colours/direction was superb!

Afterward went back into Walsall for drinks with some well, are they my friends or just friends of an ex-friend…I’m never sure how to refer to them but they’re lovely people, It was good night although I never quite made it home despite setting out with all good intentions, ended up staying over at Catherines and then heading into Birmingham with James again Sunday where in similar fashion to last weekend we camped out in Starbucks drinking Vanilla Latte and watching the rain! Finally made it home around 18:30 where I had to peel off my wet clothes, decided not to do anything so made my self a cup of tea and curled op on the sofa to watch “Lost in Translation” as recommended by Cat and Steve as I’d never seen it before, They were right it is a lovely film!

Went to bed shhortly after to read my book till I fell asleep, woke up this morning in a brilliant mood then went to work in SILLY SHOES!!

Just to finsih with something I found extremely amusing,

My friends Phil and Sarah are getting married next year so have decided (for reasons known only to themselves) that now would be a good time to move house!
They contacted an estate agents who have advertised their house online. But instead of putting a picture of the house they’ve out up a picture of the garden looking out from the house including the shed….with the advertising of “beautiful one bedroom property with garden” HAHAHAHA…Well I thought it was funny….shed…..one bed property….oh never mind!

Where has the week gone??

Last Friday I was sitting here moaning that I didn’t know what to do with myself and now look I’ve been that busy I’ve only had time for one blog all week!

Ok my week went like this..

Sunday, a coffee in Birmingham with James turned into an all day of MANY Vanilla Lattes, food and then beer, 10 hours later we decide to head home, It was a brilliant day and to completely ripof James indeed Sundays coudl well turn out to be the NEW Saturdays!!
Monday, I spent the day in work with Al trying to cheer him up as a group of complete and utter fuck wit reprobates decided to use him in a penalty shoot out Friday night….and he was the ball!!

Tuesday, was only supposed to be in work till one but Al called in sick as his physio wouldn’t let him come in, So as that left only me a Sean (the new manager) in ALL day we couldn’t leave the store as two people have to be on the premises at ALL times! So that was a nice a 9 hour shift without breaks and all my plans for the afternoon out the window.

Wednesday, was just work and football for the lil’ un, which is always amusing, 15 little kids running round the spors hall with absolutley no comprehension of what they’re supposed to be doind, my son throwing a fit everytime I laugh at him falling over and me and another of the parents standing on the side lines taking the piss out of everyone and everything around us.

Yesterday, I had my hair cut!!! its purple, its spikey. I LOVE IT!! then to work where me manager thought it would be a good idea to lock me in the display cabinet!! (THANKS SEAN!!)
Then last night it was the school Halloween Fany Dress disco, yes I know a week early but the schools are closed next week for half term, so it was a mad rush back home with outfit for Jordan to get him changed and back to school in time for the fun to begin, It was a good night for the kids, although i’m not sure who mad the most noise them or me and the group of parents and teachers I was laughing with in the corner!

Today, Wrok then home, no plans tonight, no plans tomorrow and no plans for Sunday SO if anybody has any ideas PLEASE let me know!!!
