    Aw hun, (dodgy 3some hug on its way to you):grouphug:

    It's awful when we argue with men over silly things (like how long something has been going on). Why don't they realise that by being men they are WRONG in any argument and should keep their mouths shut;)?!?

    HBFS - currently t-mobile through quidoco is the best deal for me (money back vs. cost of contract = total cost of new phone). Before MSE, I'd have probably gone to a shop and just bought the prettiest PAYG phone:o.

    I'm going to get rid of all the cookies on my machine so the transaction tracks properly!

  • ooh, Laura......men eh? I don't think he like it because I've started to stand up to him a bit. When he gets 'shouty' and 'tells' me what I should be doing, I say stuff like 'please stop shouting at me for no reason, it's confrontational'.

    I was bullied by my manager to the edge of my sanity before I took redundancy - in a weird way she's taught me a lot - I've learnt to start standing up for myself.......;) (cue the thud of some of my lovely DFW/ MSE friends falling off their chairs with shock at this point)

    hi everyone, i met my folks for lunch which was lovely and i think i've pretty much finished my christmas shopping.
    Now i'm sat here thinking of something that my OH can get me for christmas. Why is it there's loads of stuff that you do need but when push comes to shove you can never think of what it was or it sounds so boring?

    Aggh! I'm having a DFW dilemma. I've saved £60 from not drinking recently. However, I want to take the girl I'm seeing/with (very complicated) to watch Arsenal for an Xmas present. Should I use that money? Or should I think of something else?

    And I've lost my copy of 'The Stand' too! :mad:

    Had a row with the OH this morning. He got 'shouty' over something very simple. I said something general and he ripped into me for not being pedantically accurate - how long I'd wanted the hallway to have laminate flooring (1 year) rather than how long I'd had the laminate flooring in the first place (3 years) - I said I'd been waiting for him to do the hallway 3 years.......apparently I was incorrect - I've owned the flooring for 3 years, it has only been 1 year since I changed my mind from wanting it used in the bedroom and now want it in the hall:rolleyes:

    You were just adding the two years you'd wanted him to lay it in the bedroom, onto the 1 year you'd wanted him to lay it in the hall and called it 3 years of wanting to be laid.

    Been working on AQA but after crying (during row) I feel tired and can't be bothered to do anymore.

    And another dodgy threesome from me... :grouphug:
