I'm updating all my circle of friends votes! Filling your account page with my mug shot. Although I am regretting it now as i've added that yorkshire pudding club to my book list.
Will have to get some dooyoo done tonight aswell, and request my book of essays I'm still slugging through!
It would seem spending Cinny has used her mad skillz and some how taken over yours and Tetes spending at lunch. You can keep her if you like, I honestly don't mind one bit.0 -
Just been doing some rating on Dooyoo - jayzuz Dinah that Warcraft review must have taken you AGES! I used to do the tech support for it (in French and Spanish :eek:) and can certainly vouch for its popularity! Me, I prefer happy flappy Mario type gamesWeightloss: 14.5/65lb0

Lol that game is how I met my OH so it's always going to be quite close to my heart!
Yeah it did take a very very long time, OH even wrote some of it. I think I have written 6-10 reviews over 1000 words now, and all my reviews are at least 500 words, if I don't get a crown this week when so many people say they're good so help me I'm going to become a 151-word churner!
I noticed you had usurped Cinny on my profile page as giving all my latest rates!
Nearly finished 'My favourite Wife', should get the last 90 pages done tonight so I can Dooyoo it tomorrow. Strong start to the book, good premise, loose structure, kind of loosing interest in it so glad it's nearly over. Next book needs to be something less girly, I've only been back a day and already all the girlyness is getting to me. Two collegues are off doing wedding shopping, and a friend is emailing me that shes decided not to see her boyfriend for a month to make sure he's certain before he proposes. I couldn't go 2 days without speaking to OH. I'd be a wreak! He uses her anyway, she can do a lot better but unfortunately she got her eyes set fimly on that 'pinnacle' of female achievement, a very expensive saturday in a white frock, and she hasn't really taken into consideration that after that day she's going to be stuck with a man who only makes her happy half of the time, for the rest of her life. A couple of years ago my ex saw him in town on a saturday night with another woman, blatently not a friend, but she'd never have believed me, and even if she had, it would have ruined the friendship. It's sad you can't tell a friend something like that, all you can do is sit back and wait for it to be another other woman in 5 years time.
Love you guys, you let me vent (not that you have any choice!)Debt January 1st 2018 £96,999.81Met NIM 23/06/2008

How, er, romantic!! Nah, they're a bit too involved for me I think, my attention span is too short!
Oh dear, I have to say I love all my friends' OHs bar one. We went out for her birthday recently and after a drink she spilled her guts about the fact that she's only happy half the time, like you say, but they've bought a house together and are engaged. Personally I think she's one of those that's afraid of being alone as well. I really feel for her though as she's such a lovely girl, I wish she could just find the courage to be without himWeightloss: 14.5/65lb0 -
Lol could be the same friend. Well cept mine hasn't bought the house with him, it's just her house. He couldn't stop boozing with his mates long enough to save up to buy a house!
I have 4 really good friends, this one, whose OH won't see her friends, and who tried hitting on me before moving on to her when I told him I'd rather french kiss a cactus (he has talking to my boobs and kept stroking my !!!, politeness doesn't enter into it), another one who is single always, she has no time for men getting in the way, my childhood friend whose hubby is a lovely bloke, quite possibly about to train to be a minister, and my childhood family friend who is a bloke, completely oblivious and has a lovely young teacher gf he just moved in with, who is very nice, if a little loud and utterly 100% marriage obsessed. Every year when we throw a birthday party for his mum shes loudly talking about what to do to get him to propose that year, can we help her, etc! What does everyone think a wedding does, because it always seems the ones who are obsessed by it are in the wrong relationships and they think it'll be this huge fix or fresh start. But hey I guess that's why 50% of weddings end in divorce.
Today has passed so fast. Going to stay late though as I'm a bit down on my hours, and need to leave bang on 4 on Wednesday as OH plane lands at 5 past and the airport is 45mins away.Debt January 1st 2018 £96,999.81Met NIM 23/06/2008

Thankfully no one I know is like that! I read that the average cost of a wedding in 2007 was about £18,000 *turns white* I couldn't bring myself to spend that much on one day I know everyone says 'its the most important day of my life' doesn't mean you have to prance around in a £3,000 dress letting white doves fly free every 10 seconds.
You're right, today has gone quickly! Not long till you see your OH either. I best get moving and starting closing shop/office.0
