Mid-30s BESH Ski Hut: Hot toddies & mounties. Fur knickers optional.

[AlpinePony]

I declare this Ski Season open!

Thanks BESHers for all your kind words. I have just got back from boxing where I smashed the living daylights out of the bag pretending droid was actual person.

Bitey hope meeting was ok?

Rie I know the Fred. You were not being at all out of order. She wanted an argument.

That's what I thought. I was happy to oblige, and I wasn't rude, I thought. Anyway, will leave it now. Droid is just round the corner. Beep beep.

SunnyD boo to droid- seems others have kicked the living daylights out of it already, so will just drag its battered carcass over to this pyre and burn the fucker for you.

Thanks all for lovely words for me and my girl- everyone has been so luffley, on here and in RL, even my mother, who's stunned me with her sympathetic and supportive reaction (normally known for giant foot and emotional absence) so I do feel all loved up and filled with joy at the generosity of the human spirit and shiz.

Most importantly, I have managed to avoid cake and alcohol, despite a trip to Asda (other supermarkets are available) for comfort food, where I only bought some roast chicken, and even TOOK THE SKIN OFF. I tell you, if I'm not skinny by the morning and have won a baybee there's no justice.

gaga don't think I whooped for excellent performance of smallgaga/googoo (too twee? If the real other lady gaga had a baby, what do you think it would wear and rocket go team pink (sic) !!

Am back from tree planting, cream crackered but filled with a shiny happiness that only helping charidee can bring (we planted 2,750 trees between 35 of us )

SunnyDeeeelight early droid = Very Shit Times as you well know. I may have been found ranting in this very place about such things. I'm going to heat the ashes of said droid and make it into glass so we can smash it and start the revenge all over again

Moley your will power leaves me open-mouthed in awe. I have never left a supermarket when hungry without a bag full of indulgent goodies.

BeaversAreLikeCubsButSmaller glad you're getting dildocam back tomorrow, I couldn't deal with the cold sweats for any longer. Am hoping it bears good tidings.

Bitey pliz to tell us how the meeting went. I'm an HR lady and I'm not evil or scary. At all.

sunny That's shit, I think it was Boo's solar eclipse on 4th Jan though. :( Boo's fucking planets innit!

Well done on the 6lb loss. Would any of the rest of you like to join me in a challenge? I'm aiming for 17 stone by xmas - I feel this is far more attainable than 9!

If it's not nailed down right now I'm eating it. I could not fit in to my old ski pants so had to get some new ones - put the order in on 25th december and the pricks lost the order - took the money natch! Finally after a couple of phonecalls they arrived yesterday and are gorgeous... but I don't wish to eat between now and getting on the piste.

My sister left her profession to train as a teacher, lasted approximately 23 minutes - no doubt until one of the prodigious (?) little ones shouted "oi miss, your arse is massive". She is now back bean counting.

Hello kindly supportive BESHes, the battle continues and now the union is also involved. Meanwhile no one knows I am diffed! Leading a secret double life is most exhausting!

To cut a long story short, I work in a small research centre in a univeristy. There are two principal investigators who are the only ones who can bring research grant money into the centre. They are married to each other and have been off on long term sick, (one has anxiety one has depression)eaving me without line management for nearly a year. In which time I have taken on the project management of three research projects as there has been no one else to do it. Human resources have been aware of the situation for several months but no help or support provided. I am now definitely losing my job in May. The university offers a redeployment list to those whose contracts are ending within three months so they have first shot on any job vacs. I am aware that a four year contract is coming up in a different centre that I am amply qualified for but can't apply for it as it is going out to sodding redeployment first. My argument with HR then is that given their consistent failure to support me under the terms of the research concordat, they should do the decent thing and put me on the list. (Also am aware that if the job does go external and I can apply for it I will be increasingly diffed and likely to face discrimination).

That's still quite a long story isn't it? Sorry about that!

Will now catch up on every thing else, what is the latest torment to inflict on the droid?

.... and breathe...

aries and boo I have been on AIBU this morning ill advisedly given my bad mood. Haven't been controversial yet but am now steering clear as virtual arguments help no one!

PS stalked you saw what was said rie you were fine don't worry about it

kat trip up the man and 'fall' on him while nekkid.

barbiebox what news of egg watch? I am wearing this in support of you today. Prolly best not to click on that one if you're in work but just know that it took me some time to find one as close as that to Kate Humble!

Hello Bites, sorry to hear of your job woes. That all sounds very stressful and horrid. Can't believe you've doing all that for so long and not been supported.

I hear you on the virtual arguments thing. That is of course very sensible, however I am genetically programmed to try and have the last word, sadly, even if I make a total tit of myself.

Well, it's Day 28 in the Aries household. Planning on POAS within 3 days if necessary. Ha! How often have I said that?! Maybe this time though.

Tell us about your boobs Aries.

There is literally not much to write about. Not dead sore or nuffink but do have nips you could hang a coat hanger off (with clothes). And they're quite tender.

aries my stomach just flipped with excitement. Are the chapel hat peg nips normal for you or not?

I am also a last worder (and an aries)and quite frankly looking for a fight today so am locking myself in here (with sojourns to the deli for sustenance) before I get into a scrap!

I could actually murder a glass of wine. It is not even eleven AM yet.

er...yes, fairly normal Bitey But not to this extent!

Morning Hags. Am on the dullest conference call ever. With an account manager who won't let anyone speak.

Bitey work sounds horrid. I'm surprised you've kept your temper and am in awe of your calmness!!

Oh so now we have nipwatch AND eggwatch!!! It's just toooo exciting!!

Ooh Aries - that was brilliant! Am wishing I'd seen OBEM now to give context. [And am also very interested in your nipples..!]

Bitey - I really hope that your union sort out your problem. What a fucker. Not the sort of thing you need at any point, let alone right now. [BOTH of the principal investigators are off long term sick and they didn't assist in any way? Awful.]

I elected not to have the D+C and am now off work as am gushing blood. They probably wouldn't have scheduled the op until next week anyway. Fuckity fuck fuck. If it doesn't stop soon, am going to have to head into hospital. Fucking fucker. Driod? You ain't seen nothing. What's a robot worse than R2D2? This one needs a pummelling and turning into glass too. Fingers crossed that it's almost done..... Toes and um.. legs crossed too.

sunny is very weird in that am hormonal wreck but actually managing to stay calmer throughout this while diffed than I normally would. Am normally a right hot head so don't know what is going on. Maybe I'm just too tired! Did feel bad about effect of stress on baybee but my mum reminded me that plenty of baybees were born in the blitz whcih was much more stressful than work gripes! If you are alone in your office for conference for boring conf call can I reccomend passing the time by mooning at account manager?

Sorry about chapel hat pegs comparison aries it has been used by the FDH to describe my own nips so often I forgot it wasn't common parlance and possibly offensive!

Lots of potential for scrapping in the AIBU section today......

x post, brownie you are being so brave massive big loves to you

S'ok bitey

Brownie, that sounds flippin awful, you poor chuck. Hope you are being looked after.

BrownB how quickly are you soaking through pads? Have you had any scans since they said it was Game Over to check that everything is gone? I am not liking this - make sure you have someone with you (mum, friend, husband) and get someone to go to the A & E dept with you. Don't drive yourself if you can help it. Hope you are ok. Is MrB about?

PS. I don't want to scare you BrownB it's more to make sure you are not alone losing lots of blood and you pass out and hurt yourself. You need to make sure everything has passed so you don't get any infection and aren't in any unnecessary pain. Make sure you take some iron supplements too when this is over. UnBESHly hug.

Will regularly update you to assure you am not passed out...

Nope. MrB left to go to work this morning with instructions to call him/text him every hour or so. As for soakage... well - woke from a dream about being this hard-arsed warrior woman who was gushing blood... and woke to find I had gushed about three pads worth as I was waking up. (7am) That was nice. It's not flowing as heavily now - on my second pad since then. It's like someone turns on a tap periodically - been like that for a couple of days now, but this morning was def something special. Can I blame the moon?

Am having steak for dinner tonight. If make it out the house, I'd probably get some for lunch too!

Brownie, I'm anxious too now. Is someone with you?

Crossed posts.

Have you spoke to a doc?

ps - BB aren't you supposed to have an appointment with a dildocam today? Or are the eggs being harvested or something. [obviously am also interested in the eggwatch theme here]

Well - I have a bad attitude about doctors. Don't think am bleeding enough for them to worry yet. If it continues - yes for sure. Don't worry, am not a hero. Was in fact considering putting the hem on our new curtain downstairs when the sensible part of me said, "don't be so bloody ridiculous! Back to bed with you!"
