Jack

Those of you who read Practically Dutch will be more than aware of the role that Jack played in my life.

I spoke to him today for the first time in over a year.

How times change :'-(

Dilemma

So I have a dilemma.

It seems that both my Great Nana and my Nannie both chose to have children in the month of March thus resulting into copious amounts of confusion for Moi.

Every year it gets to this time and every year I ask myself the same question: Who goes first?

Now I know that One is on the 9th and the other the 16th (or is it the 19th?!) but I am just not sure which.

Anyway. It is the 8th today so too freaking late now I guess.

Cards in the post.. Honest..

Long Time, No See

Well, It has been a while, I must say.

I thought I would stop by and let you all (when I say 'all', I namely mean 'you' as I am pretty sure the people that read this are of a minority..) know that I am still alive and well.

So, here I am, alive and kicking and wondering what on earth I should write next.

The past few weeks/months have been a bit of a rollercoaster. I have moved house (as my previous post states) and been a whirlwind of emotions in regards to my job.

When I first started it was where I wanted to be, where I saw myself staying, loving and progressing however recently things seemed to have changed. I am no longer enjoying getting up and going into the office in the mornings, I am not having the patience with the customers as I should let alone the staff.

I guess I am just used to working in a busy, public place. I have always worked in bars and restaurants and been faced with new people every day, it is what I am good at. I guess I am just struggling a little with seeing the same faces day in and day out and like most offices the people that occupy them are not necessarily the people you would usually chose to spend your time with. Anyway, time can only tell what will happen with that one!

Less of the moan.

I thought I would change my template, it is a little hectic and crazy but I figured for that reason, it represents my life pretty damn well.

Hopefully my next post may even include a little humor.

Now wouldn't that just be lovely.

Heaven

So, quick update.

I have moved house!!

I am now living literally across the road from the office, along with the gym, every kind of eatery you can think of, top clothes shops, a chemist and a tanning studio.

My idea of heaven :-)

Oh the possibilities..

The fact that I have posted in a while leaves a lot to the imagination.

Think of the possibilities.. I could have moved abroad, travelled the world, been fired, eaten too much and therefore got stuck in my chair, fallen off the side of a boat, been eaten by a shark, experienced the wrath of the snow, slipped on the ice, found out I'm a man, had a baby, been promoted, swam the ocean, taken a skydive or...

None of the above.

I'm not pregnant but..

..I am having serious cravings for coke (a cola, before you ask) at the moment even though I rarely drink fizzy pop (as my Nan calls it..)

However as some sort of intercourse needs to take place to reproduce, pregnancy is out of the question.

Things that p*ss me off..

.. because there is nothing better at Christmas time than a scrooge.

1. People who can eat and eat and eat and still look like if there metabolism was any faster they would be flying.
2. The fact that everywhere I go mess seems to follow me.
3. That, yet again, even though I am no longer a 'Bar Person' I have still somehow managed to end up working on New Years Eve.
4. The fact that calling a 'Bar Person' anything other than a 'Bar Person' is not politically correct. Your a Bar Maid, I was a Bar Maid, get over it.
5. That for some reason, even though I don't speak to you all year, you still expect me to personally call you and wish you a Merry Christmas.
6. No matter how much money I pay out a week I never seem to kiss goodbye to my phone bill.
7. When I go shopping with no money and see everything I like, yet when I go out with a wad of it I find nothing.
8. The dumb ass customer that calls in and doesn't seem to understand that when you go into Tesco's and say 'Right, I want this can of beans but I don't want to pay for it, is that ok?' is exactly the same as making a freaking phone call and refusing to hand over the money.
9. The fact that some of my closest friends live a million miles away.
10. The old lady that walks through the door you so kindly held open for her and doesn't say thank you. Bitch.
