Trivial Grumblings

Fucking dry ice cloud atmosphere shit makes my eyes look like shit. All red.


Got home and have really bad tinnitus. This will be fun to sleep with.

Ever since I moved to Bristol, family gatherings are now my responsibility because they always want to come down here even though them and my brother live in Gloucester. That would be reasonably OK but finding a place that both my mum and my brother will like is damn hard work

I need to get some better chicken, this dodgy frozen stuff I bought lost over 100 grams of water in cooking.

It's not that it's frozen, some cheap chicken is put through a machine that injects water into the meat to plump it up. Can't remember the name of it, just remember my Dad telling me about it since he works in a place that supplies meat.

My trivial grumbling, well more annoyance but thought this was probably the best threat for it.

My Dad and Step-Mum are away on holiday to India tomorrow and I can tell my Dad feels really guilty going cause of the news I got last week. Obviously not annoyed that he feels guilty, I just don't want this whole thing to fuck up his holiday and mean he doesn't enjoy it. While he's away I'll be getting my CT scan, but we won't get any results from it till the week after and he'll be back by then anyway, so not like anything important will be happening when he's away.

Same for my Mum, she's supposed to be doing this charity walk to Machu Picchu for Macmillan in May. But she's trying to cancel it or get somebody else to do it instead cause she feels guilty going. I know why she wants to and understand why she worried, but I'd rather she went and did it cause I know she's been looking forward to it and has put so much effort into raising money for it.

Oh yeah, should've specified that's what I meant. Saw a doc about that a long while back. They don't even hide it anymore, just says "added water" on the front. But with the spin of "FOR MORE SUCCULENCE".

As for the parents thing, have you talked to them about it? I think the problem is they'd struggle to actually enjoy the things for worry/guilt.

I need some new formal/job interview clothes as I've put on so much weight in the last year that all of the shirts and trousers I had accumulated over the last few years don't fit any more but I don't have enough spare money to buy any new ones.
Can't imagine going nude would do me any favours. I'm down to one pair of jeans and one pair of shorts that I can actually fasten up now. Christ!

Yeah I've tried to. Dad is away to India today so hopefully he'll relax about it a bit when he's there and Mum seems to be talking about the Peru thing like she's going to do it now, so hopefully it'll all be grand.


Trivial grumbling for today. The general tiredness from the lymphoma shite, lack of sleep and a shitty cold has left me feeling like absolute crap. All I want to do is lie in bed all day

Trivial grumbling: I'm upgrading my computer, so I have to back everything up and remember what programs I want reinstalling.

Acid indigestion is seriously doing my head in now taking over about 1/3 of my day/night. It keeps me awake, wakes me up, makes me feel sick, gets really bad as I'm due to take my thyroxine and you have to leave around 4 hours between thyroxine and antacids of any kind so I'm going to have to play around with when I take that. Thankfully, my thyroid levels have been ok so far as they are being checked regularly throughout the pregnancy. The Peptac medicine from the doctor doesn't appear to help the acid at all now, nor does milk, mints, sleeping propped upright.

Nobody can find last years posters, so I've got until Sunday to knock up and get printed two sets for the Wargames club show.

Well shit. That would've been hella useful about 12 hours ago

I'll keep it bookmarked anyway, cheers mate.

You should definitely channel Zap Brannigan Ania.
