Tuesday is working on a secret project they can’t talk about

How are you and the kids doing anyway @Star?

Better thank you, Kylie was off nursery yesterday as he had a rough night, woke in the morning crying 'I'm never going to get better :(' He seems a bit chipper today, and for the first time in a week my head/throat are not raging!

We're having a chicken nugget and chips kinda day. Paper chain making later.

I get the impression a real sense of fatigue, misery, depression and anger is setting in for many people I know.

I'm mainly RAGING at the moment so me and Mrs Internet aren't the best combination right now. I've almost BLOWN on several occasions in the last few days and have had to take a deep breath and walk away, much as I know the spectators like a scrap :)
 
Bit brassed off to discover that this very pricey Stollen I bought in Lidl turns out to have POPPY SEEDS in it - which I do like on a bagel or baguette - but am comforting myself by thinking that maybe it’s a German thing :)
 
Mr L is allowed to choose between a Christmas meal out or a gift instead usually. He's as antisocial as I am (perhaps worse), so no change for him. I think he's got a Hotel Chocolat hamper this year.

I get nothing. Well, I choose not to go to the party usually, but it's not like you even get a free drink.

Oh love :( Just remember that the perverts of Moppy are HERE FOR YOU at all times.
 
FUCK. MY LIFE.

People on the office Christmas meeting are playing songs on their guitars and pianos and I am about to jump off the roof of my building. Especially because one piano especially was horrifically out of tune.
 
Two versions of "Have your self a merry little christmas" and I have already forgot the other song. No Wonderwall though, so small mercies.
 
If anyone does Wonderwall I'm pretty sure it's legal to send them a nail bomb or at least anthrax.

I think @WeihnachZenGiraffe should request that they play AND SING Champagne Supernova and report them to the police if they get any of the words wrong :)

*makes hasty decision to listen to Oasis for the rest of the day*
 
Annual work review is supposed to be happening in the next hour if they can manage to get their shit together.
 
Thankfully I didn’t have to do a work review this year as it was FORGOTTEN about with all the chaos, but then so was any RAISE or BONUS.

Finally managed to get into my postbox after snapping the key in the lock last week and have received my lovely Xmas card - thank you @Star! :emoji_heartbeat:

We didn't think they'd be happening either given the shitshow of a year it's been.

Just got out of it there, short and sweet. Very happy with me and my work, delighted with me solving the payroll problems that COVID threw up. Here's a payrise and €500 Xmas bonus.

I'm not sure I know The Song That Doesn't End. I know a song that gets on everybody's nerves though.
 
Well the British store was SOLD OUT of mince pies last week.

But I impulse bought an Irn Bru at the grocery store this morning after seeing its name in that thread. I hate it.
Irn Bru is Scotland's second greatest export. You have to keep drinking it until you like it.
 
Ok I'm going to save the rest for my inevitable Saturday morning hangover and force myself to like it

@dmclaus what is Scotland's first great export? Annie Lennox?
