*don't think too far ahead at the moment. (sorry I can't seem to type coherently today)

serialtester · 19/02/2017 14:07

Yes your right I can. I really need to get a grip of things and sort this out.

I can't thank yous all for the help you've given. Just talking to me, keeping me occupied, saying worse things can happen and things can only get better. Xxxx

INeedAWittyNameChange · 19/02/2017 15:00

I'm going to have to delete a load of people from my instagram. The ones who, without fail every week, post "a Sunday well spent brings a week of content". Makes me want to punch their smug faces!

INeedAWittyNameChange · 19/02/2017 15:01

Sorry about that outburst. I am not a violent person at all! I guess that saying just makes me feel guilty and insecure.

serialtester · 19/02/2017 15:09

Haha witty!! It's a wanky thing to post I thing. Sunday brings out social media smugness.

Someone on my Facebook has posted about being happy and healthy and #blessed.

Makes me want to go round there and lay her out. I won't, mind, but still!!

Snowball I highly recommend Rachel's
Holiday it's hilarious and completely summed up my head. Marian Keyes is a brilliant funny writer.

INeedAWittyNameChange · 19/02/2017 15:33

I read Rachel's Holiday years ago - think I might read it again

serialtester · 19/02/2017 15:37

I love that serial!! I am having a wine (again!) and watching Big Bang, I'm trying to motivate myself to cook something.

serialtester · 19/02/2017 15:59

Love big bang theory. I have a crush on Raj!

Inarightpickleandchutney · 19/02/2017 16:06

Ah see I secretly fancy Leonard!
Raj is lovely though, comes from money, in touch with feelings, has a fluffy dog!

Leonard does melt my heart though!

I am half a bottle in and DD wants to put make up on me... She's nearly 9 and bought some from Clare's...

CleaningLikeAMotherFucker · 19/02/2017 16:12

We are all chilling on the sofa, I haven't smoked today, woo hoo!

I truly think/hope a corner has been turned.

Will check in again after my nap.

Yy to Leonard btw Grin

INeedAWittyNameChange · 19/02/2017 16:16

My muscles are feeling all heavy and achy today - like I've been doing weights in the gym. I've never had that before - is that normal for the day after? I've come out to get some shopping and feel like everyone's staring at me - like they all know what I did last night and they're judging me. OH wants me to cook dinner and I really just want to get a McDonald's!

Inarightpickleandchutney · 19/02/2017 16:18

The sore muscles are absolutely normal, the hot bath and tennis ball routine helped me many times to try ease the shoulder and neck pain.

serialtester · 19/02/2017 16:20

Witty, totally normal. I think you should get that MacDonald's.

Cleaning - no fags is fucking heroic!

Pickle. - may god help you!

We chose a completely random episode of Poirot to watch while ds is asleep and it's about cocaine?! Grin

We're all so sleepy, Monday morning is gonna hit us like a freight train tomorrow Sad

I think coke tenses up your muscles even if you don't realise it at the time hence the aches. I have that a little bit today. Not done so much stuff in a night in 3 weeks and definitely feel the difference! I'm glad we ended up having a good night.

Dh and I are calling it our final fling with the white lady Blush

CleaningLikeAMotherFucker · 19/02/2017 16:33

Thanks serial. I'm going for a run tomorrow after work too Smile

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 19/02/2017 16:40

Gosh, no wonder you're feeling sleepy if you're watching Poirot Grin

I'm now having a vision of witty's OH walking into the bedroom and seeing her writhing about on the floor with tennis balls and his face like Hmm

Inarightpickleandchutney · 19/02/2017 16:55

Ha ha!! Several times DH was wandered in and just seen a hand from behind the bed and thinking I'd collapsed. I was just trying to get the knot in my shoulder blade!!

INeedAWittyNameChange · 19/02/2017 17:16

Ha ha - yes he would be very confused! I can't pinpoint any specific area though - it's more a general all over ache. Trying to remember how much I took last night as I'm feeling worse than I have done for a long time.

Inarightpickleandchutney · 19/02/2017 17:18

Don't waste head space on how much or what happened, it's done and as my daughter frequently sings to me 'let it gooooooo'!!!
I've pranced round the kitchen many a time to that song... Alone mind but still...

God I sound mental, promise I'm just a bit drunk!Wine

serialtester · 19/02/2017 17:24

Witty - I always get really sore thighs. Coke thigh. Wonder why?! Maybe it's from crouching over coffee tables?!

Pickle, am also enjoying some wine!

OP posts:
ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 19/02/2017 17:37

Coke thigh is a medical term in Dr. Lost's book Wink Latin name; quadriceps cocaine fucktus .

I just feel like I've been run over by a small tractor. Several times.
Lord knows why I put myself through this, it's just not worth it.
witty hope you feel better soon. I diagnose a nice early night.

serialtester · 19/02/2017 17:49

Lost, thanks for the dx! I feel all official now. As the official bishop I shall pray that you feel normal very soon. And I shall say a mass for you too. Amen.
