Hate it when you post and it doesn't go through :mad:

Aaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Okay, so my reason for being very annoyed is stupid, but hey, it hasn't added to my mood!

Every site tells me a different release date for Britney's new single and only today do I find out the release date is.............TODAY - it said 5th November everywhere up until today!!!! GRRRRRRR!!!!!!

So it was after the shops had shut, my last 2 hopes - Tesco and Morrisons - don't sell CD Singles!!!!!

The song reached number 3 in the UK charts on downloads alone yesterday, which is pretty top stuff, but I always buy anything she releases the 1st day it is out, but not this time, so will have to buy tomorrow - i'm annoyed as I feel stupid and less of a 'fan' now :mad:

I just ordered a couple of copies on hmv.co.uk as it's free delivery, so I have purchased on the day of release, but just don't have the CD's with me.

I know it's silly, but hey, it's important to me anyway

Hiya Miro :hello:

I had a veg out in front of the tv day yesterday and watched a documentary about Britney called Off the Rails, have you seen it? I thought about you all the way through, lol We have a channel called 4OD which is where I saw it and it's available online too channel4.com/4od

Thanks EB........... that is a great re-assurance.... thanks so much.

No probs it just makes the difference between being able to cope and function with life and not being able to do it, if that makes any sense?

Ok..:o ..I'm really pushing my luck, but here goes....

Miro my darlin', just a thought:think: , but have you looked at evening classes? If you're on benefits they can be free, or at least greatly reduced subscriptions:j ...That way you would be mixing with like-minded folk & have a chance to 'test the water' before forming any friendships with either sex AND getting out of the house for something a little more stimulating than a tin of beans! There are classes for all sorts of subjects nowadays & your library should have a syllabus , or contact the school/college direct for info.....
If I were looking, I'd be wishing I could find someone :heartsmil who thought exactly like you--& that my son, is no bovine excrement! It's my choice not to actively seek out a partner but if it were to happen over the bacon counter..:eek: NOT THAT you smutty minded lot:rotfl: ..then it was destined to be.

Crazy thing is, i'm not looking and never have to the extent of going out deliberately for that reason (I'm always looking and thinking 'mmmmm' and 'yee-hah'). I believe if something is meant to happen, it will. It would just be nice to be noticed for more than my height/build and have a nice girl get to know me rather than rough/foul mouthed/easy girls . In the past, I have been, but comments on certain body parts don't really get me interested as someone who can hold a decent conversation. Like I say, once in a relationship, at it like rabbits all night (okay, part of it, man has his limits), but not straight away I just would like to feel attractive to someone (like all of us do) It has happened in the past and I hope it happens again, but when ya down on yourself, ya know how it is

College may be an idea in the new year. I hate college though as full of young pretentious gobsh*tes :rotfl:

PS - over the bacon counter.....wouldn't that be too hot? :rotfl:

Oh, a lady kissed me today - a friend of my flatmates - on the cheek :rotfl: She was just being friendly, but made me feel awkward :rotfl:

Did it have her ex Jason Alexander in it? Hmmmm, maybe that was Redneck Roots actually...

I'll check the link, ta. I probably have seen it and taped it lots, but will check it out just in case i've missed one

Hope you are well Ethel. I've not got through todays posts yet

Hi miro

nice to see you :T:D:D

I have to agree with you, i know alot of males who are like rugby built :eek:, and it can be hard for them to say how they feel and if a guy breaks down in tears people think there something wrong with him, where if a female cries it seems more exceptable, strannnge.

And i agree it is wrong, but guess tis life

right better run, :rotfl:,

take care everyone

Rose :wave:

It's life and it generally sucks

Hope you are getting through :T

Hi


I hope you don't mind me posting, it's a lot scarier, posting this than I thought it would be. I'm just feeling very fed up and I don't really have anybody to talk to about it. I've been feeling very low for a couple of months now and i've been off work since the end of August. It started where I just felt sad and was crying for no reason and it's slowly just gotten worse, I get this overwhelming feeling of sadness and I can't do anything to make it go away, I can't leave the house on my own, i'm scared all the time, I cry a lot for no reason, I have awful panic attacks and I scratch at my arms so they just look awful and then that upsets me even more.


I've been to see my doctor loads recently but he just puts it down to the fact that my mum moved in June (I'm in Manchester and she's moved to Gloucester) and i'm just missing her. I know that's part of it because I do miss her but that can't be whats causing me to be like this. I've been to see a counsellor but it was just for an assessment and i'm not having a proper counselling session for a few weeks. I'm due to go back to work part time next Monday and i'm dreading it. I just don't know how I am going to get there let alone be around all those people and act normal. But work stopped paying me at the end of September so i'm only getting SSP and it's nowhere near enough so I have to go back to work.


I don't understand why I feel like this, I should be happy, I've got the best boyfriend ever, he's been so great and he really looks after me and I have a good job and work have been very supprtive. I feel very lonely sometimes though, we live about an hour away from all our friends and family and I just don't see anybody much anymore. I used to go up and see people at the weekend but I just feel so fed up I can't even make myself go to the shop let alone sit on a bus for an hour.


I feel like everybody's getting sick of me now, my mums been quite harsh to me, saying i'm just being selfish and i should stop thinking about myself. I don't know if she's going for the tough love approach but it just makes me feel ten times worse. She used to work at MIND, you think she would understand that I can't help it. The only person I feel like I can talk to and rely is my OH and I hate putting that much pressure on him, he's only 21, he shouldn't have to put up with all this.


Anyway sorry for going on.

Hi Haley

Just a quick hello.

Lots of people around here to help etc. I will try if I see anything I can help with, but i'm usually quite useless

I need advice. I feel bad asking here, but I don't know where else to go.

I've had a part-time job (12 hours) at a supermarket for about 5 weeks. Before this, I was in and out of work and didn't really stick at anything. But I like my new job, and I'm happy there.
I've done a bit of overtime this week, and am up to 25 hours. Financially, I can pretty much cope on my wages, although it's always nice to have more money. And I find I struggle mentally if I try and do full time, and get really tired etc. I also haven't enjoyed anything else. But here I can walk to work, and everyone is really nice, and I don't spend every second hating it and wanting to go home.
But my sister doesn't approve of me only doing part time. She keeps pointing out new jobs, and saying I should apply for them. But they're all further away (so I'd have to get at least one bus), and are mostly all call centre which I hate, and it would be long hours. But she doesn't get that I like where I am and don't want to change!
I'm pretty much decided that I am sticking with this job for a while. But how can I tell my sister? She doesn't seem to get it. She thinks I should just get a full time job and go out clubbing at the weekends and be "normal" (her words, not mine).

firstly hun, well done on getting a job your happy in and enjoy, sometimes we all end up in jobs that bog us down more than make us fee good, and sense of achievement.

Your sister sounds like mine, but you need to do what right for you, and it sounds like you have a good job and are happy in it and it works right for you, just tell your sister the truth, and keep up the good work

I've had a stressful week...TGI friday.
Although I need to run out to dry cleaner before I can consider this to be the weakend.

Work is a mess. I feel unmotivated and depressed at the state of it and my fragile position there. I had a telephone interview for a job in Southampton. I passed it (lots of others haven't) but I have told agency that in reality I don't see myself wanting to take it. I may regret that.
I have another interview next week as a salesman for H&S software. I'm not a salesman but well, I dunno.....

I had a bad day today. Almost wished I was on the dole again.

Hugs and Handshakes
