Finished a project at work that took 4 weeks, working nightmare 16 hour days and all weekends.  Was expecting a quite night and found my personal computer had a virus.  Spent all evening fixing it.

While watching tv waiting on said stupid computer, the Sky broke.

When washing my face later, the hot water broke.

And then woke up this morning to find that the regional water pump had a fault and there is currently no water.

All in all pretty crap.

Washer broke on Monday, repair people couldn't come until today sometime between 8 & Noon...10.15 now, wonder if they'll show or am I going to be spending ALL DAY waiting. Oh well, at least I don't have to pay for it since we're renting.

Not sure if the washing machine is slowly packing it in or not. And the hoover has died.  >:(

Oh no!  They say those things come in threes...  :-\\\\

My contact lenses are being stupidly annoying- they're not torn or anything, just irritating the crap outta my eyes- pretending they're dirty, etc.... 

I've never gotten food on my underpants!

Was riding back from park and someone hadn't trimmed their really heavily thorny giant bush and was halfway across the pavement and cycle lane, couldn't avoid it because of cars etc, got caught up in it and ended up wiping out. Have about 10 really deep scratches on my left arm. grr! Stupid exercise!

Woke up at 5am in total agony with the worst cramps I've ever had in my life, thanks to all the stress I've had lately.  >:(

Got the cold...and am home resting. 

What makes it bite even more is the fact that the weather is finally beautiful here...not too hot and not too cool and surprisingly not much humidity.  I want to enjoy it!   :(

I was awake with cramps then too!  I should have called you.  :)

My IA now:  I guess this laundry isn't going to do itself.  :P

My trainer weighed me on Friday morning an the scales said I'm really dehydrated so I told her what I normally drank an she said it wasn't enough so I told her I would seriously up my water intake. the only bad with that is that I'm using the loo it seems like every hour/hour & half now {Sorry TMI} & our freaking toilet is upstairs as well. I know not to overdrink too much water I have nearly had 2 liter's already maybe 1 1/2  liter's more an I think that's my limit.  ;)  :)

Dh is being a selfish jerk. Last weekend he bought $180 football tickets. This weekend he's wanting to buy a $700 laptop. We have a laptop (mine from college) and a desk top, but he wants his own laptop. I told him we could call my laptop his, since I barely use it anymore. But that wasn't good enough either. We are on a budget and working hard at getting out of debt. He needs $5000 worth of dental work done. I've needed new tires on my car since May and we keep putting that off. I'm really starting to resent how much he's spending.

Come on! Think of the stairs as an extra calorie burning bonus for drinking the water! ;D My trainer wants me to drink 140oz (like nearly 4 liters?) every day. I told him I'd try, but it is way too hard. I'm just not that thirsty. Plus once school starts, I won't have the luxury of going to the bathroom whenever I need. It's bad enough as it is! I keep waking up in the middle of the night and very early morning having to pee. I used to be able to sleep through the night.  :-\\\\

My IA- I'm down to the last few days of my summer holidays (as a teacher) and I am not motivated to do any of the things I wanted to get done this summer like clean out the office. Once school starts it's just go-go-go all the time and I am really loving the relaxing here on the sofa!!

You should have! We could have been grouchy together.  ;)

My IA: when did I get such weird sideburns? I just coloured my hair and noticed I have dark hair growing down the entire side of my face. WTH?!
