    Stabbed myself in the hand today, that was bright

    You always seem to be injuring your hands. You need a pair of these

    Just remember to take them off when going to the loo.

    So do I, and I can't remember the last time I stabbed myself. Especially not with a screwdriver. Though I do hold both of them by the blunt end. Cowardice, I know...

    I have sliced myself open on a cable tie though. :mad:

    these ones are even scarier!

    Handbags and walking sticks
    wheelchairs and poodles
    wrinkly cold hands and the ability to be really rude and everyone forgives them because they're old!!!!!

    Its just too much sometimes

    Blunt end? You're such a fraidy cat :rotfl: In my defence, I'm not actually the clumsiest person in the world. They're little tiny screwdrivers which are a b*stard to control!

    I've had an ace weekend so far! Yesterday was a brilliant, brilliant day. Got up, post had arrived and my cd that I bought off ebay had arrived. Considering I paid by cheque and didn't send it til tues I'm pretty impressed with that! So I had shiny new music to listen to at work :)

    Went to the cashpoint in town and realised that last month I'd changed the date of the SO I was waiting to be taken from my account. So I realised the money was taken last week not this week and consequently I've got £70 more this month than I thought :T

    Went for a few drinks and to the cinema after work. Taking C's advice, I paid for very little of it ;) Saw Superman by the way, which was ace. Although judging by the comments on the way out I'm the only person that thought so! Everyone was complaining about it. I thought it was a bit too long, but apart from that I really enjoyed it.

    And the best thing that happened yesterday....

    ....

    PAYRISE

    :j :j :j :j :beer:

    Ok, it's only an extra k, but it's an extra k I really wasn't expecting and it seems to be for no reason whatsoever! Had a great little 'wooh yay' talk from my bosses so I was bouncing all day! That's going strrrrrrraight to my debts, I'm gonna work out a new dfd soon and everything!

    So I'm still on a high from that really. Work was fine today, night in tonight (possibly al vodka!) and then 2days off! Woooooooooh!

    CONGRATULATIONS! :T :T :T :T :bdaycake: _party_

    What you mean - only a k? It's a lot better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick!
