lizziecso yes...
Work was a killer. No really, I was more than ready to come home at lunch time. Lay in a too-hot stupor for an hour and then went to get mum. Was cut up by no less than 4 drivers and fell into bad mood/road rage that ment mum drove home via bike shop to get bike. Bike much healthier tho it turns out I've fucked up my gears to the point that without totally new ones they'll never work properly again, so I'm next for a new bike ^.^
Have mudguards and a basket now. Bike has siny new cables and even stops when I press on the brakes now!
Was in bad temper all evening. Unable to sleep cos of the heat and thus overtired, stressed cos of money worries (more on that in a mo) and far far too hot. Didn't know what I wanted except for my mum...that's a point, I've been far more clingy since I've been ill and I don't know why :( Anyway, made a pest of myself. Had chinese for dinner. Was nice. Watched programme on kids taken back to 1950's school. Was interesting. Incidentally, I'm quite good at long multiplication but I can't do long division. (that came from watching their attempts)
So now, my main worries. Back to work today it was. Had to confront option I may not be paid for my time off ill. When I first got ill I hadn't been there 4 weeks which you need to work to get sick pay, so mum talked to Peter who is my HEO. He said I could take some time as Annual (holiday) leave. I took 3 days of this, then worked a day (the most tortuous days work I've ever done, I swear) and then went sick properly having completed 4 weeks service. Hopefully this should make me eligable for sick pay. However, Stella (evil...I do not like her) says it wasn't in the book so it doesn't count as holiday and then she said she'd have to talk to management. Then she inferred I was lying that I worked a day (friday) before I went off sick. I do *not* like that woman. Anyway, it could all mean that I don't get paid at the end of this month. It's not a nice feeling all this stuff and yet somehow I'm becoming desensitised to it. I used to be scared of being £5 in debt and now I have loan debts already topping £3000 (intrest rate on that apparently due to rise from 1.3% to 3.1% which very Bad News if it's true) and an overdraft almost gone of £1500 and yet somehow it doesn't really bother me any more. Stupid system. *kicks blair and brown and labour*
Gits
This made me giggle
