hah that's perfect!

so much more engaging than 'I have these mental disorders, I want to keep one of them but feel better about it and do a more convincing display of Being Normal'

I think I'm more likely to show up if I'm paying but see also: physio, personal trainer

the Bad Thing is that would have to see her in a place where I go for other stuff, it might be weird

CaulkheadUpNorth · 16/02/2015 22:26

It might be, but it probably won't me.

Any one watched benefits Britain. What an insult to people having to claim benefits. I feel ashamed by it

CaulkheadUpNorth · 16/02/2015 22:28

If you kept missing seeing them, they would make you talk about why, like if you're pushing them away to see if you leave you. That sort of thing.

Ennn · 16/02/2015 22:33

Wouldn't that be a bit self fulfilling? Hmm

PollyPooic · 16/02/2015 22:35

no, that sounds horrible breezy, is there anything nicer to watch?

well if I see this therapy creature I will have to explain at the outset that I am really shit at remembering things and showing up on time etc

Die, John Torode and your annoying voice and handbag mouth and lecherous ways and "I'm going on a journey" documentary

PollyPooic · 16/02/2015 22:37

sometimes I do just decide not to go to things like blood tests but now I can log on and admire all my results here in the comfort of my own squalor there is more incentive to show up (next one is tomorrow at 11:15, hooray for me)

Ennn · 16/02/2015 22:38

STOP EATING LIKE THAT YOU TWAT

John Torode puts food in his mouth like Commander Riker sits in a chair

PollyPooic · 16/02/2015 22:39

am not part of the annoying stuff on tv gang :( am going through it alone with just the Roku logo bouncing in slomo around the screen

Ennn · 16/02/2015 22:40

I was whinging today to GP about how the blood tests and thing's up at the polyclinic are an ENORMOUS PITA and if I'd wanted to join a town practice I'd have joined a town practice of which there are several but instead I joined my local one so why now are so many appointments for doctors and nurse clinics up at the polyclinic and she told me that they did blood tests at the local one too and they actually prefer that as she has to pay the polyclinic every time they do a blood test for them Grin

Apologies, my iPod has a passion for extraneous apostrophage

Ennn · 16/02/2015 22:42

Oh Polly don't worry

would you like to be in the "lets see what I can find in the kitchen that will make chickpeas into houmous" gang instead?

Ennn · 16/02/2015 22:43

And yet it doesn't fucking arsing well apostrophise "let's see" despite at ALL OTHER TIMES wedging excess apostrophosity anywhere it possibly can

I think this software was written to be as annoying as computerly possible

Ennn · 16/02/2015 22:45

Fuck, the slightly nicer, larger one of my small blenders is dirty and there is an enormous conveyor of washing up ahead of it in the queue

Ennn · 16/02/2015 22:46

And DP bought a new kettle so all my hot drinks taste of new kettle Sad

Ennn · 16/02/2015 22:47

Why so many blood tests Polly?

CaulkheadUpNorth · 16/02/2015 22:47

We have tea and the radio on. It's like we're middle class or summit.

CaulkheadUpNorth · 16/02/2015 22:47

Radio 4 that is.

Ennn · 16/02/2015 22:48

I am middle clarss and even I don't listen to the radio Grin

Ennn · 16/02/2015 22:48

Middle middle to be exact Grin

CaulkheadUpNorth · 16/02/2015 22:49

I love radio 4. After hot drinks and the cat and knitting, it's my number one love.

Ennn · 16/02/2015 22:51

I only like the news quiz partly because of my infinite passion for and adoration of Sandi Toksvig

Ennn · 16/02/2015 22:51

Oh no my crowe in out didn't work. Now it's like I actually said it out loud Sad

Ennn · 16/02/2015 22:52

Oh screw typos YKWIM
