Ok, I would really like to be over this cold now
Not least because I have work tomorrow, and I don’t really know how that’s gonna go down. I don’t really want to call in sick with a cold, but then again 1) I don’t want to undo all my recovery by putting myself through my physical paces for 5 hours, 2) I don’t want to infect a bunch of people, 3) I’ve not had a day off sick for the whole 4 months I’ve...

Colds and Cures: Northern Dad's Time to Shine
Although I do try to be healthy and look after myself, if left to my own devices I can be pretty cavalier about my health: this is usually demonstrated by the fact that I’ll randomly go through 2-3 month phases of eating cereal all the time, by throwing caution to the wind during deadline time and subsisting on lucozade and 4 hours’ sleep, and taking 2 ibuprofen and 2 paracetamol...

Just found an awesome PhD programme in Medical...
Fully Funded. And in the UK. Plus it’s in a really interesting area: looking at the ethics of healthcare tourism in relation to euthanasia (e.g. a short stay in Switzerland). One (colossal) problem: applications close TODAY. Fuck. :/

Ask a stupid question... [etc] →
But does anyone have any tips for getting rid of a cold (or at least speeding up the recovery?) I’m seriously agitated that I’m getting nothing done, and that this cold is making me want to eat everything within a 4 mile radius (and then giving me tummy ache whenever I eat anything :/), etc. - Plus I really don’t want to have to miss work on Saturday for the sake of a bloody...

Northern Grandma Strikes Again
Aunty Gail: Take your phone with you to the appointment, then when you're finished you can phone me to come and get you.
Grandma: If you're coming from the supermarket then you'll be on your mobile...
Aunty Gail: Yes.
Grandma: But I don't know your mobile number.
Aunty Gail: Yes you do! It's on your speed-dial; that's how you called me when there was an emergency the other night, remember?
Grandma: yes, but that number's for when I need you AT NIGHT; how do I call you in the day?!
Aunty Gail: o.0

Damien called; I may have overreacted. Apparently the girl in the photo is a lesbian and his phone was having signal dramz (on this occasion I am more inclined to believe him as I emailed his mum asking if her bf had returned (as he was out with Damo) and she said she hadn’t been able to get hold of him either).I feel like a fool, but this is what the last 5 months have done to me. So...

… pengvin replied to your post: … stewcraven replied to your post: Shaking… My advice if someone cheats on you is to leave it. A relationship is like a glass vase, once it has smashed, it’s very hard to put back together, and even if you do manage to put it back together, it still has cracks in it. I know, one of my biggest regrets was getting back with him after he...

Shaking right now; I don’t whether it’s because of this, or because of the cold. All I know is it’s pretty violent; teeth chattering and everything. Something’s not right… something isn’t sitting right. I hope I’m wrong, I really want to be wrong… But by that same token I kind of want to be right, just so that I don’t feel as though I’m...

Awesome: writing an essay with the set title of “What’s Wrong With Killing?” More awesome: checking the wordcount after finishing the first section to see this: I am easily amused….   :3
