Come on in, you raddled old caaaaahs, whotchoo waitin' for?

I've gone for a groovy 60s psychedelic theme, so get your fat upper arms comfy in the hanging globe chairs and hide your mememe shame in the glow of the lava lamps!

Russell Howard is our new bartender, although I don't think he's happy at the flares 'n' kipper tie outfit I've forced him to wear. And of course, Mitchell is in the pit, nervously awaiting his first guest.

Let's make this one diffalicious!

PollkaDot, I would cadge your piss-ridden thingy if I didn't already have Iggy's, which STILL refuses to correspond with my cycle - it insists on loving her, and only her, long time

Oh Laurie I forgot to say - I had lower back pain before droid due date too. It usually signals droid arrival.

Muser · 29/04/2010 22:12

Fanks for the sympathy all. Starting to think I ought to go elsewhere for a while as all I can say right now is mememememe and it's a bit dull.

PollyPoo · 29/04/2010 22:14

Don't be daft Muse, that is what this place is for. Don't leave us! Come and snuggle up with me and we'll watch Pretty in Pink.

Headbanger · 29/04/2010 22:17

Muse don't go!

Plus, you do not me me me me. ACTUALLY. And I should know, being the queen of LOOK AT ME!

aries how can you go from erudite coment on the housing situation, to talk of fluffy films for pink people?

Ariesgirl · 29/04/2010 22:21

And the education ishoo, don't forget that one . Well I'm good at multi tasking innit? Being a woman.

Ariesgirl · 29/04/2010 22:23

What I meant to say was, it must have been a different Aries.

Muser · 29/04/2010 22:29

I do love The Princess Bride.

PollyPoo · 29/04/2010 22:37

Head my email tells me you have fb me, but stupid fb is denying it. I will reply tomorrow as I'm off to bed, hopefully fb will behave itself by then. And you are not self-obsessed. At all. So there.

Muser · 29/04/2010 23:00

In more cheery news. I have uploaded a picture of the All New Improved Knitting on to my profile for you all to mock admire.

grumperina · 29/04/2010 23:05

So... if the droid doesn't make an appearance tomorrow (= very longest cycle length), should I join in the POAS action?

Ocarina · 29/04/2010 23:07

Yes, of course you should! (hello by the way)

Muse I think I'm still seeing the old picture, but as that impressed me greatly the new improved one will impress me even more. Hope you manage to enjoy the weekend despite bastard droid.

How's the form filling Head? - pushing the door and seeing what happens seems far better than asking What If?

Don't think TH was very impressed that I jumped on him for SWI purposes as soon as he came through the door (on the basis that we were going out and he was bound to claim to be too tired later). It would help if I could tell about ovulation - got darkish lines on OPKs Monday and Tuesday (interestingly at about 9am and disappeared by lunchtime so I'm not convinced by this needing to POAS in the afternoon for them, or maybe I'm just weird). Lines have now disappeared, but temp hasn't spiked. So, does that mean I haven't ovulated, or my temps are just being weird or what? SWI would be so much easier if I could time it more accurately....

Muser · 29/04/2010 23:12

I have fixed it Orangina. Hope your SWI worked.

Scorpette · 30/04/2010 00:09

Muser, you are truly a knitwit. KNITWIT! Oh, it's the way I tell 'em! Seriously, am

Well! Me and TYF just saved the universe! Okay, so we didn't. but we did ring the police cos some drunk bloke was bellowing into his girlfriend's letter box (not a euphemism for some gross sexual act, chiz chiz) and then started kicking it and yelling vile insults and threats. We were 'subtly' watching this through the study blinds - by subtly, I mean that TYF opened the window so we could hear better and I accidentally leaned on his novelty toy keyboard (don't ask), which emitted a high-pitched note, which made the bloke look round! When I say neighbour, I mean it was at a house we can see in a cul-de-sac at the back of the flat, which gives you some impression of how loud he was ranting for us to be able to hear every word! Anyway, we were worried it was all going a bit domestic violency and rang Ver Fuzz, who came round sharpish and we saw him being taken away in the back of a police car. Also saw curtain-twitching a-go-go all over the cul-de-sac!

After that excitement and heroism, tis bed time! Kicks and snogs to you all and oh, if we're compiling a list of 80s films then I like all John Hughes ones and must insist on both Fame and Krull. Yes, Krull. I 'went there'. It is so crap it's a masterpiece. Or possibly just crap. Aaaaanyway, night night!

Well, I is out. Droid beeped its arrival this morning.

Not sure I can keep doing this to myself & the boyf each month. Forget how it affects him. I was feeling all woe is me, when he asked all excited how I was feeling. He hugged me & I cried, & now I'm in work with stomach ache from hell, eyes like piss-holes in the snow & facing a meeting most of the day. Super.

Sorry to get youse all excited too. I'm a twat.

Muser · 30/04/2010 08:30

Oh that is rubbish laurie. Here, have a Mimosa to start the day.

maswera · 30/04/2010 08:34

Oh Laurie, I'm sorry, that's just shit

PollyPoo · 30/04/2010 08:37

Oh Lorry I am sorry, that is utter shite. I want to wrap you up in a duvet and smuggle you home. I really wanted it to be your month. Big hugs and snogs to you, plus a gin sling and donuts.

PollyPoo · 30/04/2010 08:44

Occers meant to say if your temp hasn't spiked yet then you haven't ov'd, so keep shagging, just to be on the safe side.

Ed I hope you got all the forms completed last night - good luck with the ... can't think of the word... er ... (placenta-head) you know, 'funding'. Still can't think of proper word. Twat. But good luck with it!

Ariesgirl · 30/04/2010 09:37

Laurie

PollyPoo · 30/04/2010 09:41

Aries, can you email me at [email protected]?

Ariesgirl · 30/04/2010 09:43

Yikes . Am I trouble?

I'm on it.

Casserole · 30/04/2010 09:44

Laurie. Am so sorry. I woke up this morning even more excited about your possibilities than mine, such was my feeling about you.

This game is SHIT, no doubt about it.

I hope you get through the day ok. Try and lose yourself in mundanity and regular cups of hot tea and bars of chocolate. And drugs.

Would it help to know I'm actually shedding a tear for you at my desk? Not really, probably. But at least here you know there's a gang of women who genuinely do know precisely how you're feeling today.

Same to you Muser. What shit timing. Why is the universe so cruel sometimes?

Sad morning in the red tent today.
