Why I love being single

I've spent too many times on blogs, moaning how life is so cruel to me, how I'm gagging for sex and how I wish a guy would just come and sweep me off my feet. So I thought I would make a positive post.

So here it goes:

Why I love being single

1) I get to cook what I want, when I want. I am not a cafe, I do not have to make gourmet meals.
2)My word is final.
3) I do not have to ask permission to go out.
4) I can spend all day with my kids if I want too and not have to worry about ignoring the "man" in my life
5) The evenings are my own to read, watch tv or come online for as long as I want without anyone moaning about going to bed or turning it over for the football.
6) I don't have to do the washing up that night, it's not going to kill me if I leave it until the morning.
7) I don't have to worry about shaving my legs as soon as they start to get stubbly
8) I know that my bills have been paid.
9) I can prove to my kids that mummies can mend broken toys too
10) I can sing and dance like a nutter, knowing that the kids will join in and not frown and think I'm weird
11) I can drool over actors and not have to worry about making the man in my life feel inadequate
12) Having lots of wardrobe space
13) Having a whole kingsize bed to myself
14) don't have to keep my stomach sucked in when I walk from the bed to the bathroom
15) Doing yoga in a swim cossie at midnight, just because I felt the urge to be healthy and fit
16) Drink wine and get tipsy and not worry about the other half moaning because you're giggling too much
17) You don't have to worry about morning breath
18) You can flirt with that cute guy at the bus stop and not feel guilty
19) you can flirt with actors at signings and again not feel guilty.
20) You don't have to worry about getting on the pill or spending money on condoms
21) Toilet seat stays DOWN
22) You can talk to your mom/friends without getting dirty looks because you've been on for over an hour
23) Vibrators don't talk back, or expect breakfast.


Feel free to comment back with anything you can think off ;)

A quickie

I'm just jumping on quickly to say I'm still alive!

Mum has been down and gone, leaving me with tonsilitus, which she came down with towards the end of the visit. So both myself and the kids are having a great time, which is wonderful seeing as I only just got over the flu! And look I can even sound positive still about the whole thing.. must be the tablets.

What else? I got kate's email about "You know what" I'll be finding someway of printing it (I don't have a printer) which may mean writing with paper and pen and sending a cheque off soon.

Also before I forget, the mysterious R, who I seem to have misjudged immensely. I asked him out for a drink, he agreed, all was going well until my friend saw him in town and stopped for a chat, where it emerged the woman he was with, was his fiancee! The damn git was engaged! I have therefore decided that men are gits. Well most men.

Other then that I'll be back up and online once I've got rid of this ickiness and I'll be rambling on in the chats as per norm. Now I'm going to go and have a nice steam bath.

Show me my bed

I'm having one of those days. One of those days where you wish you had never woken up. The kids are being little sods, I've come on here quickly to have a little moan, before my last £2 on my electricity runs out (I will be learning what it was like to live without electricity come tomorrow due to a fuck up which was probably my fault.) I still feel like crap warmed up, although right now I'm not very warm.. I've had to install the new McAfee as my other one ran out, and it's being a bitch to my PC. Ie I've been waiting five mins for the bloody Security Centre to gather my protection service.. and I'm in a foul mood. All this and it's only just gone 1pm. It's coming to the part where I'm going to have to swallow my pride and a) ask to borrow a tenner of my mate and b) Have a good old cry to get this frustration out of my system. It wouldn't be so bad, but the kids are in exactly the same mood. Got to love being ill. Not. All three of us are horrid, bitchy, moody, hormonal and ready to snap. Oh the glories of life.

So yes, I think I may just go start gathering Berries now, and fatten ourselves up before the big freeze comes in. Hibernation seems like a wonderful idea at the moment.. Maybe I should follow the animals (seeing as we are animals) and take their advice for once. If all should go tits up.. Sleep*

*Or drink, however seeing as I have no money, sleeping will have to make do.

Memorieeees...

I've been reminiscing alot today... and woe and behold what should I find..



We had such fab cartoony things when we were young. I love the eighties..

Sleep deprivation

Sniffles

I could bore you all with my version of events from Monday at the Green Wing DVD Series 2 signing... but I won't. All I shall say is that Stephen was adorable, Michelle and Pippa were lovely and Julian was just charming and slightly more appealing when he's looking rather overwhelmed.

I did meet some lovely peeps that day though *Waves to Skea and co* and I can't wait to meet them again at some point in the near future. *Wink wink, nudge nudge* It was lovely to finally put some faces to the names and Skea, we will definately have that corner to ourselves one day!

However, I am now rather poorly. Hence why it's now 3 minutes past 4 in the morning and I am not in bed, but on here writing to moan about it. Normally I suffer in silence, but I feel like a bag of mutated crap right now so I thought I would be good enough to share it with you. Thankfully you can't get germs via the Internet* and besides if you could get germs, then I'd be blaming Jools as she was the last person I knew who was ill. I'm just hoping that I've not passed my germs on to all the GW fans that were there on Monday as well as the actors. I wasn't ill then, so I don't feel at all guilty if anyone comes down with something now as I didn't know I was a possible carrier...

Besides, I think I would have had my karma seeing as I fell asleep with the kids this afternoon and completely forgot about R coming. Hence he saw me looking as if I was something out of the living dead, with big fluffed up hair to compliment it.. He told me I looked like shit, which is moderately better then my eldest telling me I looked like a monster this morning. Hopefully he'll see me next week and forget how I looked tonight. (That's R not Louis. I think I have scarred my son for life with how I looked this morning. Then again I think I've probably scarred R for life too)

Talking of how one looks, after seeing the photo's of myself from said signing, I shall be starting my new diet. (Once I have eaten the Terry's Orange that is sitting in my fridge.. I don't think I will be able to get away with it being classed as one of my daily 5) I'm not usually very good at diets, because I have no willpower.. I did go to Slimming world for 6 months once, but I was really bad as I used to weigh in on a Thursday, pig out from Thursday to Sunday, then live on raisins for the next couple of days. I managed to lose over 3 stone, but I definately do not recommend it at all. I think the only reason I managed to not kill myself as such was because I ate so much crap over the course of the weekend, I couldn't bare to look at food for a while. However, this time I will be doing it properly. And I will probably be alot poorer too. Why is it, to eat healthily you have to spend a fortune on food? Fruit and Veg are so expensive. I spent £20 the other day on not very much fruit and veg at all. Mind you, I was in Sainsbury's.

I should really go now..



*Ok so I know you can get a virus via the internet, but thankfully (in a sense) that only affects the mechanical stuff and not the biological stuff..

Drinks all round!

Hurrah!

Other then feeling rather weak and feeble at the moment.. yup a cold has come and taken it's hold, I am rather impressed by my day today. I received a phone call this evening, advising me that my broadband is now back working, plus due to my stressful time I will receive just under £100 and two free months. So now I'm saving all of Jools' podcasts so I can listen to them over and over again. Move over Ricky Gervais *wink*

I have also been lucky enough to be able to get out of a parent's meeting and have my friend pay for me to go to the DVD signing on Monday. Yes I will finally get to meet Julian and Stephen aswell as all the rest of the fabulous cast that are attending. I will be wearing my glorious T-Shirt that was made for me by PeeWee that has Guy licking his balls across my chest. Make of it, what you will.

Ooh Mr Somerville... *Sings* Don't leave me this way...

Sorry.. *grins* as I was saying, I'll be attending on Monday. With I think a list of everything that I have to say to Julian. I will remember to not act like some gormless twat. I've been practising in my mirror.. and yes it has been laughing. *Sigh*

So what else has been going on? "R" has yet to say anything. I did send him a text and tell him it was true that I liked him and thought he was a great guy.. That was it though.. When I saw him he didn't say anything about it, but he did act as if nothing was wrong. We laughed, joked and chuckled as per norm. Which is good right? Seeing as if he was at all worried he would have ran in the opposite direction, screaming like he did with that Spider.. *sigh* Seriously, it would be so much easier if we could read men's minds. That way I would know if I should say anything more to him. He could be standing there thinking ask me out for a drink! Then again he could be thinking Dear god, don't say anything please! See what I mean.. He could be thinking anything.

ok, now i'm in a chat with everyone and I can't keep up writing on here and talking on there!

Bye!!
