My cat's too lazy to chase anything. She's currently asleep on my lap.

I used to keep a bottle of Stoli in the freezer. I've got to admit it's nice like that.

Fluffy!

Caulk, if Asda is too scary, could you get something from a drive through? Even a wrap? Sorry if that isn't a helpful thing to say. Flowers

I wanted to get a couple of big mac and knew Id regret it...managed to turn the car around and did cook an omelette. Ate it in bed!

Alcohol is always calling me, am resisting (Since Sunday and until weekend). Had a few drinks while out for a meal with family a few weeks ago and had a massive argument and then exceedingly dark thoughts. My tolerance level is about a unit and a half, sometimes two.

Nice cat Caulk.

Enpoid · 22/01/2015 21:13

I told DP he was being a fanny about my taking off my seatbelt a minute before he was going to pull over to drop me off, then shot him a v-sign as I was walking away when he told me not to slam the car door Blush

Mitchy1nge · 22/01/2015 21:13

that's such a cute cat, here kitty kitty, don't worry about the spaniel - he's much more afraid of you than you are of him

I was surprised at how few calories in the vodka (31), I bet the only reason I don't habitually drink is horror at the calories not being in omelette form or something

am mostly impressed that I ingested 995 calories in just a few hours in my friend's house!

good job niamh, nothing from McPukes could taste as good as The Omelette and match it for nutritional value

I'm quite severely tired and thirsty and achy

do not feel like doing anything tomorrow after group run but I know the dentist is coming (equine) and I do have to ride as was v half hearted effort today, and it is CAMHS and I really need to see #1, she saw the psych and I'd like to know what The Plan is (she is already sounding more grounded, #1 not the psych, the psych was nice but a bit floaty)

I'm in bed eating bacon flavour French crisps and drinking wine
Did you manage to get some food, Caulk? Is that Asda still 24h? (if I'm thinking of the same Asda round the corner from you). If so, could you go with a limited shopping list and stick to it?

Millie2013 · 22/01/2015 21:29

Hope the ponios behave for the dentist tomorrow, Mitchy. You've reminded me, I need to get out EDT out

Enpoid · 22/01/2015 21:30

Doxepin is one of tricyclics, isn't it?

Mentalpsychiatrist · 22/01/2015 21:32

Doxepin is a tricyclic. It's a funny one because it has uses outside of mental health.

CaulkheadUpNorth · 22/01/2015 21:34

Asda closes at 10, so I could make it. However I was driving back from the station yesterday and stalled, which has translated in my head as there being a massive problem with my car, it's unsafe to drive etc etc

Mitchy1nge · 22/01/2015 21:35

how is quest for food so far caulk?

thanks millie, no idea what the young welshie will be like - the boys are good, I hope she doesn't need sedation because there isn't enough £££ to cover that

OP posts:
CaulkheadUpNorth · 22/01/2015 21:35

Millie, it was 24hr but there were too many issues needing the police so they changed it.

Mitchy1nge · 22/01/2015 21:36

can you order something in?

OP posts:
CaulkheadUpNorth · 22/01/2015 21:37

I've made a cup of tea. That will have to do, and cannot purge it so logically is something sensible to have. Poor oesophagus still unhappy as I've not seen the doctor so trying to not do it as much.

But I have a new name so it's ok.

Enpoid · 22/01/2015 21:37

I've never tried a tricyclic - neither of my parents do very well on them so I'm not sure it's even worth the hassle TBH. I do know a couple of people who do well on amitriptyline which they are taking because they also have pain.

I like a few TCA and I really get on with amitryptyline, but I've never taken a very high dose
Caulk-there usually is a massive problem with my car, so I share your thinking :)
Mitchy-my (then) young welshie was always a doddle, it was the old one that needed enough IV sedation to knock out the average elephant. At 13hh
