Just My Luck

Well I had a car...for all of 9 days! The bloody thing conked out on me on the top of a busy hill in rush hour...Nice.

I had big plans, well big enough for me anyway. I wanted to take my knocked up friend food shopping (she lives a bit of a trek from her work place: trains, buses and serious foot juice). So I went to get her from Wembley and then we got to Sudbury Hill and the car stopped. Wouldnt move whenever I turned it over. Then a whole load of complete a** passed us and kept leering into the car with angry faces, I've come to the conclusion that they thought I decided to stop dead in the middle of the road to paint my nails!

Finally some guys came along and helped us out, they moved the car out of the way and then told me that there was probably something wrong with the spark plug/crnak shaft/head gasket... *baffled face* really, it was like talking to me about football, lol

Managed to drag my friend and I to the station so she could get home and then I went home and joined the RAC (£8.05 a month is a steal for search and rescue).
So once again me and my Oyster are on a journey until my car is fixed, but I'm quite suprised with myself because Im not as upset or pissed off as I thought I would be. Is this me maturing?? Nah, I'm not due on my period yet, lol

Happy Hippo!

Some people just can't take it! They just can't take that I am happy and doing something with myself.
I'm talking about the moody old bags at work. I've got a new job and a car and they are just stuck at home with their beer-belly husbands!

So I've been grinning since last wednesday, totally estatic that my life is a bit different than the same old same old and they can't take it. They'll say whatever to bring me down. Well F**k 'em. Menopause Cow made a grunt at me about Xmas holidays and who can and can't take them. I reminded her that I wont be here, and she commented 'You MAY not be here'. I corrected her, 'I WONT be here' and walked out.

But I'm worried that Menopause Cow is going to hinder my chances of defo getting the job, because she still has to write my reference and she's being a right biz-nitch at the moment...I mean REALLY!

Wow!!!

I'm so bad! I haven't written in ages but so much has been going on.

I've got a new job, I think I briefly touched on that with my last entry but I've just been getting everything finalised. I start on the 1st October (well actually that will be 2 days of induction) and then I start on the Maternity ward (all those babies!!!)

I know I'll probably being doing housework stuff like making beds and handing out meals but its a change from what Im doing now thank the lord. And then once the good stuff starts I'll be extra happy!

THEN

I got a car!!! Its a Silver Vauxhall Corsa, P reg, 5 door, sunroof, p/s. Im sooo happy! No waiting on anyone or waitng in the rain. I got it on wednesday (5th) and I've driven it around a few places.

I told DB and he didnt seem to pleased. 'How can you afford a car and insurance but you cant come and see me???'. I knew he would come out with some shite like that and I just told him 'How can you say you love me but still piss off to Trinidad??'

Oh well Im happy at the moment and thats all that counts.
