Empty Chair Thursday

[octophone]

Morning all. Computer is still knackered. Still "hot desking", which I hate. It's no wonder everyone's germs get everywhere and then they get grumpy about sickness...

MORNING! I don't care if it's distasteful but I'm going to spend the day wondering whether my grandmother REALLY had as much money as was RUMOURED and whether any of it will FIND ITS WAY TO ME *daydreams about early retirement*. It's only fair as she retired at 52 through "ILL HEALTH" and then spent 40 YEARS retired

Morning
What’s the point of going early to bed (midnight) if you’re going to wake up at 3 and spend 2 hours not knowing what to do with yourself?

I’m off to London today. Excited to see Lizzo tonight . I probably should get up and get dressed though.

If I'm up that early I know im going to get a rare dose of the African money markets on BBC News.

Do BBC news still knock out HARD TALK

 

[big ron]

Used to love listening to that as I battled through trying to sleep off some form of drugs on a random wednesday morning.

They do. There's a French lady I quite like. She has no time for us.

I've either bruised or cracked a rib. Fucking ouch.

They never do.

My favourite FRENCH NEWS LADY is BENEDICTE PAVIOT

This is a natural curiosity, surely? As long as she didn't invest the lot in Beanie Babies or MiniDisc.

 

[Lucille]

I’ve been staring at my overdraft and wondering the same for YEARS hun.

 

[Lucille]

My aunts and uncles have been very kindly doing up her house room by room so she can live out her later years in COMFORT, certainly not for a QUICK SALE.

 

[Lucille]

Oh you’ve got CANCER, don’t worry, we’ve put a new kitchen and bathroom in for you when/if you get out of the hospital.

TODAY has been a GOOD DAY

Woke up at 5, despite going to bed at 12:30 after seeing a-ha in Brighton, was too tired to exercise, so went to work early and got some shit done, planned to leave early but was too busy so got home at 5, went for a run that was supposed to be 5k and ended up being 10k- my furthest since I was properly running back in 2015 and in my only third run since my "comeback"! Guess all that gym work has been paying off. I've just made a Christmas cake with shit left over in the cupboard that's mostly out of date but I refuse to waste and am now sitting waiting for it to finish baking and uploading things to iTunes like it's still 2005.

I'm absolutely shattered
