Fine whines...

Meh. Again. Having one of those Everything Going Wrong Days. Or indeed Weeks.

New car is lovely, took it for a spin to belfast t'other day and it is quite a lot of fun to drive, even for an automatic. Hurrah! It really does go VROOOOM when you want to ;)

On the downside, it appears that, strangely enough, going from not driving at all for several weeks to making a nearly 4 hour round trip to pay for the car in one go last friday was not such a good idea.
A combination of that and lower back going wonky has left me with sore back, sore hip and a non-broken leg full of achy, spasmy muscles.
Watching them twitch randomly is fun, but trying to find a comfortable way to sit to work (or idle online) or watch tv or sleep or... anything is not.
Walking - or rather hopping - any distance is out too. Getting up off the chair/sofa/bed is particularly challenging.
I even cunningly managed to fall over trying to get up the steps to the bedroom and land on the sore hip, which, although probably better than landing on a broken ankle, didn't help things. Tho thanks to sufficient padding, my dignity was much more hurt than anything else ;p

Internet connection keeps going wonky too, resulting in having to phone bt helpline [ETA because Thesme MADE me] before the laptop got thrown out the window. Although they were actually useful, despite having to explain repeatedly that no, I *couldn't* carry the laptop out to connect it to the wireless thingy with wires, so that was ok. I suppose.


On the plus side, as Mum has gone off to visit her sisters for the weekend, I have the house to myself to be as badtempered and grumpy as a I like, without having to worry about snapping at people or making the effort to be polite. An evening of wine and firefly may be in order. Possibly even popcorn, if I can figure out a way to get it from the kitchen to here.

For now tho, I should get some work done. Happy friday everyone!

'Internet connection keeps going wonky too, BUT LUCKILY MY GOOD FRIEND THESME RANG ME BECAUSE SHE IS VOVLELEVLY AND SHE TOLD ME TO RING BT AND I SAID I WOULDN'T MUTTERMUTTER BECAUSE MUTTER AND SHE MADE ME AND SHE WAS RIGHT AS SHE IS IN ALL THINGS WHERE WOULD I BE WITHOUT HER I DON'T KNOW, '

Actually, i very nearly did put in something along those lines.

What i actually WNATED to post was MY BUTTICULAR AREA IS SORE. But not the whole butticular area. The left butticule is fine, but the right butticule is ACHY and all knotted muscles.

But then I was struck by what the responses woudl be if made any mention of the butticular region, so I didn't.

*waits for EDITED POST*

heheehehehe Hugh came to visit you and that's why your BUTTICULAR AREA is sore. And he's right-handed.

[hellison.livejournal.com]

There, edited.

And it is the EXTERNAL BUTTICULE that is aching. So HAH! no weird baldy canadian has been anywhere near me!

1. The sad thing is I think I actually DO need a buttock massage. And general lower back and leg... Have appointment with osteopath next week, which will hopefully sort it all out. If i don't end up in Musgrave getting pins pulled out of the other leg of course.

2. but there is nothing WRONG with baldy/shaven. It's quite fetching, he's gone a bit lexx luthor really. I had meant to add when commenting on the Gesture of Fisting picture that he really is quite cute ;p

[http://users.livejournal.com/_unhurt_/]

he really is quite cute ;p

eee! i mean, er. [dignified]it pleases me you agree.[/dignified]


stupid operation arrangers! so slooooow.

[hellison.livejournal.com]

I knew i'd forgot a whine in the original post. Re. operation. Apparently I will have it on A Wednesday. They just don't know WHICH wednesday. They will only know the monday of whatever week it is due, when I will get a phone call to say 'come in the day after tomorrow so we can yank bits of metal out of your leg under local anaethestic'.

This will be 'sometime in september'. Which narrows it down...

[thesme-01.livejournal.com]

He missed ?

[hellison.livejournal.com]

See, THIS is exactly why I didn't put it in the original post!

tho if he always does it without looking, i'd imagine you could end up getting punched in the butticule quite regularly. Also, I am now in love with the word BUTTICULE

[thesme-01.livejournal.com]

I think a clear definition of the word butticule needs to be provided. hmmm?
Also. Poor Callum. He must have fierce problems with his number 2s.

[hellison.livejournal.com]

I thought it would have been fairly clear from the usage in my first comment!

The butticular area as a whole (hur hur hur) has 2 butticules, left butticule and right butticule.

I really, really don't want to have to think about the toilet problems of canadian actors thankyouVERYmuch.

look out for the one who is disgusted that no archaeologists were present to supervise the cutting down of TREES!

[hellison.livejournal.com]

Ahh the tarawatch loons ;p I usually get some of their stuff at work, cos i was on the carrickmines email list, sadly I miss out on the joy here.

They are, unfortuantely, often so bloody loony the whole thing gets ignored.

[thesme-01.livejournal.com]

I joined them. They were loons. I left when they started shouting about why nobody had asked George Bush to save Tara.

That and the man man with guns who lives in the woods in Wicklow.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_unhurt_/]

ha, AR and SG were at a one day NRA seminar on stuff what was found during mororway projects yesterday. and there were loons protesting outside!

[thesme-01.livejournal.com]

horns?
goats?
beards?
long drapey things?

[being-here.livejournal.com]

Hello. I didn't cmment yesterday because either

a) I don't care
or
B) Power cut at work = unexpected loss of internets and also work I'd been working on. So went to pub.

Pls to use phonecall of last night and pome to help you decide ;p
