Nearing the end...

... of this cycle and for some reason I have gone crackers making up random symptoms haha

I am just looking for an excuse to have an extended period of time off work as it is rather sucky at present, so a focus on getting away from it is good.

Plus I post on a baby talk forum who have a daily thread for people who are TTC and they are all nutter (in the nicest way) but they are having a bad influence on me.

So the countdown to Saturday is really on for a few reasons firstly af is due so I'll have an answer, secondly NO WORK whoop whoop and finally I am going to get the winning six numbers on the lottery haha. Well I know that there will be a definite 1 out 3 and as meatloaf said two out of three ain't bad and I'd be happy with either of the other two. Getting all three would probably just be greedy hehe

Tomorrow is Julia's 30th I've been remembering this fact for a week and I hope that I remember tomorrow so that I can send her a text. if I put it on here it will be a reminder :)

There was something else that I was supposed to blog about, I remember sitting at my desk thinking "aah I am going to blog that" but I have forgotten, I really should write things down.

Right I am going in search of some chocolate, I know that there must be some in my bag!!

Take care lovelies xx

June Update


Me & Tom at ESB

Well it really is time for an update as it has been a month!!

Well obviously the best thing about May was our trip to New York for our anniversary. It is such a crazy city unlike any other. It is fast and fun with so much to do.

I was glad to see that the people aren’t as angry as I have heard. There are so real crazies but most are really nice.

We did so much in our week but there is still so much that we didn’t get a chance to do. We walk so so much and ached every night when we got back to our hotel.

We did the major things like Empire State Building, Top of the Rock and some museums. We took a ferry ride to Liberty Island. Saw Avenue Q on Broadway (which was ace) and went to a comedy show. We took tours around NBC and around Maddison Square Garden. We walked around Central Park and to Central park Zoo (aka schitzu hehe). We went to Ground Zero which really is just a building site at present but the plans look good. We also walked along Fifth Avenue looking at all the shops. We also dropped into Madam Tossauds.

My favourite was TOTR, we went later in the evening and stayed up there whilst it was getting dark. Fantastic views over the whole city. Plus they have this crazy light room where the lights have sensors and follow you around. Tom has put some embarrassing vids on YouTube of me.

I also loved walking across Brooklyn Bridge, it was a nice day and we just talked all eh way across. When we got to the other side we went to The Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory for some delicious ice cream!

There is so much more that we did but I don’t want to bore everyone hehe

The day after we got back I went to see Girls Aloud with the girls and Chris. It was a lovely day so we met in the pub at 4.30 and had a few glasses of vino collapso before we went to eat and then onto the show.

I had a fab time and it was a fab show and sang our favourite songs. Sadly Vicki couldn’t go as the mean university made her sit exams on the day of the concert and the morning after. I did ring her though so that she could have a listen and a dance hehe

Then it was back to work, nuff said! :(

Then it was Al’s birthday so the boys went for a night out and I had a lovely evening with Skip, Nich and Logan. We sat in a cooed over gorgeous Logan, ate biscuits and sweets and watched Mama Mia which was fab :)

There is no update on the baby front boo, I’m trying not to let it get to me but I have to be patient, I’m not very good at being patient hehe!

We went to see Terminator on Saturday. It was very loud, I love going to the cinema and watching loud movies. It was fun but there is just something about Christian Bale, I don’t not like him I just don’t particularly like him. Tom thinks it’s because he can’t talk. He is either shouting or uses the stupid gruff voice. TALK MAN! He seems the same for most characters he plays. Apart from American Psycho, I have to say he was very good in that though saying someone is a good psycho may not be the best compliment hehe

I bought myself a new toy yesterday as well. A Sony Reader which I am loving. I have transferred a lot of my books from my laptop to it so now I can keep reading when I am on the bus or at dinner. It came with 100 classic books so I am going to work my way through that. I am going to read The Strange case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hide, we call one of the people in work that so I am going to read the book!! It also has War and Peace and there is something in me that actually fancies reading that.

Still no job for Thomas which is a little worrying as he only has two weeks left at this one. He was an interview set up for 29th June so I am just going to keep my fingers crossed for that.

I also have to say that I love lolcats, it really cheers me to just sit and scroll through the pictures. I did that before typing this as Sunday evenings are the second most depressing time of the week, Monday morning being the first.

Well that is all for now so I shall sign off and decide what to watch tonight. Tomorrow is Monday and therefore the countdown to the weekend :) nothing planned for this week other than stinky boo work

Have a goodun folks xx
