Lack of Sleep
Hi Liz, how are you today? Ive decided that your the only one who reads this, so I might as well ask :) But then again, this is probably far more for my benefit than for yours, so maybe I should ask myself as well - Soooo, Andy, how you doin'? I'm bloody rubbish and feel like crap on a stick Andy, thanks for asking! I think I'm going a bit perculiar.....
Anyway, the reason for my insanity is probably a lack of sleep. The last time I wrote in here was what, Saturday? It might have been, cant really remember, anyway no matter, but Saturday night I just couldnt get to sleep at all, possibily as I've said before because of my intolerance to this hot and humid weather. So I ended up going to work yesterday on the back of about 3 hours sleep, and I felt just awful. I felt sick, i couldnt concentrate, people were irritating me, all cos I'd had so little sleep. I'm like my Dad in that respect, some people can get on fine woth little sleep but I cant, i never even got used to it when i used to stay up for Liz, thats why i dont do it no more cos I just cant take it. So for the first four hours or so before the tiredness subsided it was not good.
Then of course I had my car to worry about. Yes, remember how it broke down and we fixed it? Well ive had a new problem with it, everytime its stopped the car started shuddering really badly and revved on its own, so by the time I got to work i was convinced that It wouldnt get me home and I'd have to call the breakdown people, and that little thing stayed in my mind for the whole shift as well :( Thankfully, David let me and Des go home an hour early, unusual I havent been sent home early for about a year, probably more, but me and Des wasted the time really (thats funny - like I wouldnt have wasted it at home alone anyway?) by staying, having a drink and a chat with Hannah and then playing on the games machine for ages. At one point we made about £11 out of it, but our desire to get everyone a couple of pounds profit meant we eventually ended up with nothing.
Now what was I gonna say? erm..... oh yeah, Hannah, well you remember me saying how her and Paul were having problems? Well it turns out that the bastard was cheating on her all the time they were engaged or for the last few weeks at least, they've been living together for 18 months and engaged for a while, and he was seeing someone else... She's really devastated, she's been with him so long she doesnt know what to do without him really, and she looked just so pale... She says she's ok, and I'm sure she'll come out of it stronger now she's single again and will find someone better. Probably means she wont leave the springfield as well, she was mainly going to leave because her and Paul never saw each other cos of work, now that doesnt matter.
It actually worries me a bit, cos David wants to leave and is looking at jobs, and that scares me. I dont want him to leave, we're pretty good friends now and he lets me do loads of the manager stufff like cleaning the lines, counting the stock, putting it in the computer etc that make the job a lot more interesting and fun, and someone else mght not let me do that... Then again, if David left i'd bet a pound to a penny that Chris would actually make Hannah a new assistant manager cos he hates doing interviews and promotes from within, thats what happened with David. That would be alright I suppose, Hannah's alright and I'm one of the old guar anyway really, she wouldnt be able to order me around that much, it would be too weird cos I still remember the times before she was even a supervisor and she was in the same school as me anyway, cant exactly tell me what to do can she?
Anyway, my grandparents have not long left, Grandad took a look at the car and says that the engine is ticking over too slowly (whatever that means) and needs a new air filter, not a big job and can be done when David (my step dad) comes back with mam. Erm, thats about it really. Oh, I'm coming up to the halfway point of The Count of Monte Cristo :)
