    I will wish you well and cross my fingers for you Esme. I have to confess I am not a praying type either. Required to do too much of it at school!

    They might not be very religious on here but some people are definately saints.

    I find a lot of folk on here aren't praying types and if they are then they're papist and not evangelical bible believing like myself which I have 'issues' with....even if they don't admit it when I'm paranoid I'm always on the look out for ulterior motives...

    Anyhow today is day one of no cigs...today should be a breeze. I've got my carts (e-cig lingo for mouthpieces) lined up and my batteries charged.....Just need a new 4 cell battery box for when I go away next week :).....cos I want to charge once a day and not every 2 secs :eek:...

    So got 'can't be bothereditus' which is doing my head in as I hate being slothful. I'm really wary of that. I've got heaps to do - just can't be bothered....So resting till lunch then will get on and some chores..it's just a debate between cardmaking and eBay today - though eBay really should be done on Saturday as am away next week (end of wk) for 2days so like I won't be able to post which is bit cheeky if I put the auctions on for 7 days from today :(...

    So yeah...got new teeth yesterday (didn't brush teeth for about 10 years when psychotic) and they fit really well. I've only got the top ones in right now - at some point I want to put the bottom ones in (really tricky) but that'll have to wait....and like they might have to go back to the lab...

    And I have a place on a Graphic Design course in town starting on Tuesday - whoop whoop whoop....so just need to get my act together and do my ECDL and when I'm about t 1/2 way through the up to date version (currently doing 2003) then get some admin vol work pre a job :)..see i will get a job but it could take me a while...

    I'm ok, insomnia is back with a vengeance, I didn't get to sleep till sometime after 6am, and woke up with really bad backache. Quidco's been paid so I've got takeaway to cheer myself up, pizza and a big portion of garlic spinach, yum.

    Glad you enjoyed Morrissey Beanie!
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.
