Make me feel better LJ Land!

[scarlett_lee]

Today I discovered I have done something incredibly stupid. Possibly the stupidest thing I have ever done. I'm actually too embarrassed to admit it just yet but can anyone offer a prime example of their own stupidity to cheer me up? if it's as bad or worse I'll admit mine

A few months ago I was glibly using the internet on my phone (when I didn't have normal access) and it cost me a hell of a lot of money that I couldn't afford. I'm pretty ashamed of being so naive!

Oh no, I imagine it was awful when you got the bill. When I was a teenager I ran up a £500 bill on dial-up internet. My Dad had to pay and I felt really guilty. I think my stupidity wins but thanks for sharing, it's nice to know others make silly mistakes with consequences too.

Now that could be considered stupid or convenient... :D Were you ok?

my ego was very much bruised, but otherwise i was intact =D

Now we're onto the serious stuff! You may win - I bet dealing with the consequences was unpleasant. Do you regret it or are you more of a philosophical "I am the sum of my experiences" (therefore no-regrets) type?

By the way, hi and welcome to my journal which I neglect horribly, usually until I need information or to be made to feel better by LJ friends! I enjoy reading yours. x

Thank you :) Am feeling a bit better now I've had time to think about it - worse things happen at sea and all that. xxx

Eek! Oh well Ik'm sure it will be fine. I must admit most things I can cope with, writing reports, keyworking, etc. But simple things like food shopping can induce panic attacks, making telephone calls to complete strangers worries me terribly and I normally have to have some sort of script or have practised what I'm going to say before hand, etc, etc.

We're having some people round on saturday if you fancied coming?

[scarlett_lee]

Thanks, you're probably right.

I have plans for tomorrow but not sure whether they're still happening - if i find out not will give you a call. Thanks for the invite because I really would love to catch up with you, if not tomorrow then soon! x
