It's been a while, so I thought I'd better poke my head in and confirm that I am in fact still around. I guess life and general stuff has gotten on top of me lately, but I'll see what I can do about that.
Work's busy. We're building up to Christmas now, and if you're in, or have ever been in retail you'll know what that means! I don't actually mind it being busy. I like having stuff to do, and I like the pre-Christmas atmosphere. I could probably do without the Christmas music on loop, though. The first few of times it's not so bad, but by the end of the day...it wouldn't be so bad if they'd change the cd once in a while, but they don't!
I've got a week off coming up anyway, which I'm looking forward to. I'll probably do a bit of christmas shopping. I do most of it online nowadays, but I think I'd like to go into town at least once. Course I'll have to find out what everyone wants first. I know Gillian and James want clothes for Richie, so I'm looking forward to getting those for him. I love buying clothes for kids! There's so much cute stuff!
Let's see...my doctor has put me on some new tablets, seeing as the other ones were making me puke. I was a little alarmed when i looked at the enclosed leaflet and saw some of the listed side-effects, but for the most part I seem to be tolerating them pretty well. I think my main complaint is that I haven't been sleeping so well since I started them. I've tried reducing my caffine intake during the day, but it doesn't seem to be making much difference. I've been waking in the early hours, then having trouble going back to sleep. And then there are the dreams:
Dream 1# I was at my old high school searching for my missing/stolen backpack. Somehow a guy with a scythe got involved. As did some packages of kitchen roll. Then there were the little plastic dolls that were falling from the sky, and the hill that I was rolling down....it make sense at the time, as dreams normally do.
Dream 2# I was running down a sandy beach towards the sea. Nothing too unusual about that, except I'm also pushing an empty shopping trolley. I was scratching my head over that one when I woke up.
Dream 3# I was watching some fishermen(?) preparing a squid- like creature to be eaten. I'm pretty sure squid don't have human teeth though....
So on that note, I think I'll go to bed soon....
OhOhOh! Misfits Series 2 starts tomorrow! I'm such a spoiler whore, though, so I already know what happens in the first two episodes. But I'm still excited! Heh heh!
