Saturday 17th, and we don't got the weather we were promised!
 

On Thursday a friend asked me to "apartment sit" for him over the weekend as he wanted to go away. He lives in a penthouse overlooking the river in the better part of London (last valued at about $10 million), I live in a shitty little apartment in one of the worst parts of London, so it should have been a no-brainer. However I had wanted to go to the coast this weekend, so I was not best happy. But I eventually agreed. This morning the sky is cloudy with a lot of dark rain threatening clouds, not the beach weather that we were promised, so I guess my friend did me a favour. And my subconscious tried to make up for my missed seaside trip - last night I dreamt that I was sitting on the beach.

This morning I wandered out on the balcony before breakfast and noticed a small flotilla of barges sailing slowly along the river. A few minuites later they turned round. After breakfast I noticed that they had turned back in their original direction, as though they were sort of circling, and I wondered what they were doing. Eventually I remembered that there is an entrance to London's canal system roughly where they were circling. I'm guessing that they too believed the good weather forecast and decided to spend the weekend sailing on the canals. I'm also guessing that the lock keeper is late and they cannot get from the river to the canals, so are circling while waiting for him to get his lazy ass out of bed!

Good Morning :)

Been for the most part working as usual while the wife is away on business. Going to the theater tonight to see American Idiot which my wife was really bummed about giving this up because of her last minute trip. My daughter is going to go with me and she is really excited about this so it should be a good night.

Ratios have plummeted the past couple of weeks for me sooooooo can someone turn down the shave button again! Thank You

Good morning all. Nothing big planned today, been up working for a few hours already. Might watch a big of hockey at 1 but after that no idea what we're doing.

ecchi, sounds great to be stuck there for the weekend lol

London's only worth $10 million?

Afternoon! |waves|

I'm still having a rough time sleeping. And, it's becoming a regular occurrence that I (eventually) go to sleep with the apnea mask on & wake up with it off & on the floor :( I truly HATE that f'ing thing!

The lovely rehab I'm going to has FINALLY approved me to get some meds - 38 f'ing days after I walked out of detox |banghead|

My wife hate it as well. But I've heard several users claims it gives them more energy. I understand you're having a hard time sleeping nowadays, but have you experienced something positive with that mask sometime?

(I'm curious because 1) It would help *my* sleep if she used it more often, snoring. A lot. 2) I will probably end up with one myself.....

It's been a nice may 17th, barbeque-party which I could leave early with the excuse that our grandson needed to go to bed. Drunk people I don't know ain't my favorite sport :)

Sandy took the kids and everyone loved it. For whatever strange reason, she didn't invite me...

I visited a friend this morning, then worked on my boat for awhile. It's finally warming up outside, so I decided to come inside away from all that Vitamin D.

First congrats on making it this far and keep it going!

Next, if you stop drinking all those damn energy drinks you might be able to sleep!

|couch||smooch|

The bit I live in is only worth 10c, and 9c of that is for the loose M&Ms down the back of my couch!

YES! And it's wonderful |bananna| But try doing this tonight: you're yawning & it's time for bed. Strap a breathing apparatus to your face & then try really hard to go to sleep, but don't! Not for at least 5 or 6 hours...this is the madness I deal with every night :(

I'm actually detoxing from those & from sleep aids/pills this weekend. So far, life still sucks |punchref|

Good to hear you are trying to detox from these as well but this will take a little while too due to the amount you were drinking.

Life will eventually get better and you have my support in doing so.
