Shugga, that sounds annoying, especially considering how expensive Subway is compared to here in the states. (I found that the numbers were the same, just it's in £ over there!) However, your post made me crave Subway! Unfortunately it's 11:30pm! :(

My IA- apparently I'm sick. Cough, sinus crap, stuffy ears.... I've been fighting the good fight for about 2 months and I think it's finally won. Tomorrow's my last day of winter break and I had so much I wanted to do. Argh! At least I have my favorite tea from London!

DH has been waking up in the middle of the night coughing.  It's been really bad for both of us because I wake up when he's coughing.  Bless him, he goes down stairs for about an hour so I can get back to sleep, but both of us aren't waking up until very, very late because of it.  :(

Went to Ikea to find a bookshelf and other storage stuff. Found the perfect thing, but realised we couldn't get it into our tiny car since DSS was with us. So we ended up driving all the long way home empty handed. Boo!  >:( Will go back next weekend to get it, hope it's not out of stock!  :-\\\\

stupid ignorant people who take things online too seriously. The ones that are too high on their stool think everyone should have to follow their thoughts and their beliefs... FFS get a life ::)

They do delivery  ;)

My IA's - I seem to just be in a bad mood. My top up card for my mobile seems to have demagnitized somehow, I only need £5 on it for my tarriff this month and I really don't want to put £10 for a voucher top up. The CoOp that's next to our building was out of every single item (8 different things) that I went in there for, thank goodness that they're a different society than the one my husband works for or heads would roll. I have a headache and a 2 year old that is refusing to take a nap.

That sounds like my local Co-Op yesterday! It was like WWII rationing in the produce department. There were only two bananas in the whole shop - thankfully I was only using them to make banana bread so it didn't matter that they were seriously bruised. Of course, their fruit is always in a pathetic state. I have to buy the pre-packaged apples if I want ones that aren't already rotten. No idea what's wrong with this shop as other Co-Ops I've been to don't seem to be a battered fruit shelter!

My computer at work decided it should still be on vacation. When I came back from getting coffee it had frozen and responded to none of the usual tweaks. Got the IT dude and he got it going again and updated a few things. I asked how to make the fonts larger and he showed me how to do it. Fine in Firefox but makes our cataloguing software impossible! Some fiddling to come ...

On Christmas Eve I ordered a bunch of items from M&S.  They are finally shipping out some of my items today-most of what I really needed is out of stock. 
This keeps happening to me when I order from M&S while they are having a sale.   >:(

I'm with you there! Haven't worked since 23 December; haven't been on a train since then, either. I'm absolutely dreading tomorrow. I want at least another month of laziness!
