I admit it OK? I am well and truly wallowing today. I am car less. I have walked to local, over priced shops for essentials like milk for days and pulled some kind of ligament in my ankles. (It's shameful, it's only 20-30 minutes away, depending on how fast you can walk.) My new-second-hand-car was to be ready today but there is a problem with the brakes and so it won't be ready... yet. I walked to the shop miles away, only to find that they only had massive cartons of milk and they were too heavy for me to carry home, (I only wanted a 500ml carton as my fridge is so ridiculous, it repels fresh produce and turns it to poison... instantly.) And every time I set foot out of the door to walk somewhere, it chucks it down. Incidentally, I then walked to another "local" shop, but they don't stock skimmed. Just remind me what year it is again???
All I have in the house is soup, either tinned, fresh or frozen... and coffee. My bathroom light pulley, after months of either staying on for eons or staying off for eons, has totally given up, which means I shower in the dark these days and my new-used-car will cost me extra money to insure, which I don't have... before payday. Did I mention that after a couple of years of getting my finances in order, I am now almost £3k more in debt? And breathe.
So I'm using up a days leave today, Tuesday. It's a day off from work, and I can't do anything and so after my hour long walking expedition for milk... despite the fact that I couldn't actually buy any milk. I now have nothing to do. I delve into my emails, reply to my cousin Jayne, I owe her one from the weekend, bring you up to speed and then I descend into a cure-all of Ryan and Sandy while I scrutinise my finances.
Ryan and Sandy are probably better known as Ryan Gosling and Ms Sandra Bullock and so I delve into "Murder by Numbers", (a Sandy and Ryan double whopper,) followed by "Fracture" for Mr Gosling and then, that old chestnut... "While You Were Sleeping," courtesy of Ms Bullock. It's times like this that you need old friends around you, and in the absence of friends today... I have Hollywood megastars. See? Always a bright side.
