I love Santa!

I think I'm going to marry Santa Clause. I had a great Christmas and can't believe it is all over already....although not long till my 21st now!!

I got a Sat Nav and a tent as my main presents so i think this calls for a road trip!! I'm well excited.....all i have to do is get time off work...and maybe wait till the summer for some warmer weather.

I was just as excited as any other year, i worked lates on Christmas eve until about 10.30 in the hope this would tire me out so i could sleep. How wrong was I!!?? Me and Samantha who are meant to be the grown up ones didn't sleep at all but Darrell managed alright!

Christmas dinner was yummy as always and is topped off with a glass of wine. A few glasses and many giggles later more presents were opened...Santa really was a busy boy. Darrell got University Challenge game so we played that for a while.....I WON!!!!

Then straight back to work for me, which sucks ass! So in the whole festive period i managed to have Christmas day off! Anybody would think I had a really important job where people couldn't survive without me but no it's just burgers and chips!!

Aberdeen

It's freezing, but not as cold as Nottingham?? Whats that about, my dad said it was minus 2 yesterday and it was roughly 4 degrees here but i swear more like minus 19!!! Samantha and I erected Gran's Christmas tree, which doesn't look that bad!

The only person i have completed Christmas shopping for is Harriet, I had all her stuff in October but then decided to give it too her so then i had to go shopping again. Well thanks to Charlotte I didn't even leave the house, she found a trolley and basket with shopping so i have got her that. I can't believe how she has grown. She is a proper little madam now!

So tomorrow take form of shopping....i HATE shopping. As we have flown up here we have to be careful of weights to take things back with us. If i don't finish shopping tomorrow everyone is having money as I'm back to college on Wednesday and back to work until Christmas day then! So the pressure is really on!! arrgghhh

Off to visit Grannie!!

Me and Samantha are off to Aberdeen tomorrow to see my grandparents. We are flying...i know seems pretty lazy, but believe it or not for both of us to fly return for 6 days, it is cheaper than it would be to drive!!! Samantha has never been on a plane before so this will be interesting!! he he he.

If i have time to pack properly i am planning on taking my laptop so i can do some of the million essays i have pilling up for college! ugh! So i may keep you updated while I'm away.

Finally getting over this stupid glands thing, feeling 1000 times better than a couple of days ago. I think the rest is just what i need, no work!! woo hoo, with my sick days and now the hol i will have had nearly 2 weeks off!!

Christmas Party

Well it was that time of year again where I have no choice but to be associated with all my crew members!! The Christmas Party, this year i vowed to get wasted and let them look after themselves as last year i ended up in A&E with someone who had been fighting and the year before bailing someone out of prison!! So this year I was going to let someone else deal with it!

So i did just that!! I probably haven't drank that much since i was about 15!! I went out in some high heeled boots which only stayed on for about 2 pubs then i just gave up! But to my shame i had red socks on...of all colours.. RED! I have a purple/blue top on, dark grey trousers then these bright RED socks!! Ok i suppose they were festive!

I also managed to acquire an inflatable penis! Which amused me no end, for most of the night. I drank too much and apparently verbally abused a few of my crew calling them prostitutes!...which they probably are but it isn't very professional to accuse them is it?! Oh well and least nobody took it too seriously.

I had to work Thursday morning and man did i know about it. I was still extremely drunk when i staggered through the dinning area with both my assistant manager and store manager giving me their disapproving look...well i didn't ask them to schedule me that day did I?!?!

I've been poorly sick since Friday though...No it isn't just an extra long hang over! I feel dreadful. I think every gland in my neck and face have become infected and swollen up. It hurts to even sip water! I've now taken three days off work and feel a tiny bit better. Hopefully I'll be all mended by Thursday as I'm off to visit my Gran and Grandad in Aberdeen!! woohoo.
