To start off with last night, I couldn't get to sleep to save my life. Therefore, this morning I woke up as tired as I fell asleep.
First challenge: Getting dressed.
It is a warm day, today in Bradford, and the sun is out, and it's hot. So I looked in my draw for a cool T-Shirt, but I realised that they're all in my suitcase, ready for going on holiday, next Monday.
I put on a T-Shirt that is too small, and really thick, and HOT!
Then I went for a walk with my dog, Travis. It was fine up to coming back, I thought that it was our afternoon walk, so I thought it wouldn't be too long till the web design winners would be released, Great I thought. Then I realised that it was still morning.
I came back and came of the forums, to find I hadn't won a GAD or FAD (that is normal, so it's beside the point!) I then went on Er-no's Extra Extra thread, put up a couple of ideas, then Your Honour, basically said that my entries were rubbish and had no thought put in him. My morale had dropped a bit by now.
Nobody was posting anything, so I went to wash my hair, before having my dinner. There was no hot water, so I had to wash my hair in freezing cold water, and I missed the first 5 mins of Home and Away, because of it. Then I went out for another walk with Travis.
Travis met up with a cross Labrador called Duke, and they were chasing each other, then Duke ran in the dirty pond which is infected with sewage, (that's the council for you) and Travis followed. When I finally got Travis, and the lady got her dog, I was boiling hot, and very annoyed by now!
I went home, and poured a full watering can of water on Travis, to clean him off. Then I dried him of as well, despite many protests by Travis. He is a five stone chocolate Labrador, so if he doesn't want to do it, he wont do it! Fine, now I'll be able to come back and see how my RPG thread has done. Oh no I cant do that. My mum said that Travis smelt bad, and that I had to rinse him off AND SHAMPOO HIM!!!!! Even though I had just done that! (I don't think she realised that though)
So 5 full watering cans later, and two arms covered in flea shampoo (which wreaks!) I finished the dog, then had to dry him off again. Now he really wasn't impressed and was as awkward as possible!
Finally I thought, I can go back on the forums, Wrong again!
Mum asked me to go to Tesco's and get a cooked chicken and a couple of other things. I could have screamed. By now I am boiling hot, tired, and soaking wet from my dogs bath. BUT I trooped off round to Tesco. When I got there, two girls which I know from school were there. They gave me mucky looks, and blocked the door so I couldn't get in, I just pushed them out the way, and one of them tripped me up. If she had been a boy I would have probably punched her because I was really mad by now.
I have never seen Tesco's so busy. I went in dodging trolleys and people, got everything I needed except for the chicken. I went to get it, and there was none left. I asked a woman (behind the counter) When there would be more chickens she said in 20 mins.
*my mum has just come and asked me to set the table, I cant even write a post, I am going to scream. I'll finish it later*
Right I'm back and I've had my tea, where was I..?
Oh yeah, chickens. I payed for the food, and came home, knowing that I would have to go back again. Now I'm almost falling asleep.
I went back half an hour later, only wanting a chickn, so I waited at the counter. There were two women serving at the Deli, but no-one at the hot chicken one. Loads of people who worked at tecso went past. I must have waited about 10 mins minimum, then a woman came up and queued up behind me, and the woman in charge immediately told a woman to serve the chicken counter. I got my chiken and came home, hot and extremely annoyed, amd then I started this post, and I had to set the table and have my tea.
I am going to scream. If anyhting else goes wrong I will punch something or someone very hard!
Count your blessings and travel with God, He never breaks down.
Take your Hols and rejoice some folks may not get away this year.
Good luck and keep your chin up, turn your face into the wind and take a deep breath it will all turn out ok.

Nobody you knew died,
That's it. I hadnt realised it until you said that, I now realise why it had annoyed me so much!
My aunty lost her baby last Monday, as she was giving birth to it. She was 7 months pregnant, and went into early labour. It was a girl. My aunty and uncle are completely devastated, because they really really wanted children.
The thing is my aunty is nearly 36, so we dont know If she'll be able to have a child again (as that was their first.) They called the baby Alexandra. And they had the funeral on Monday, a week after the birth. The most upsetting thing is that if she had, had a ceasarian she would have probably been ok, and the baby survive, because it was 4lb 1oz, a very good weight, and she was perfectly formed, there was nothing wrong. But the doctors let my aunty have it naturally, and the umbilical cord was too short, and she died while being born.
They live up in South Shields and We live in Bradford, so we didnt go up for the funeral, as it was at nine o clock in the morning. But my nanna said that everyone there burst out crying, when they saw the tiny coffin.
Oh well, Thankyou Goatboy, for helping me realise why I got into such a mood yesteday,

Nobody you knew died, nothing happened to change your life completely.
Minor annoyances, blips on the radar.
Breathe deep, exhale and go get steaming drunk and have a fight.

er....okay

> holiday, next Monday.
Dude, you packed everything a week early?
You're a nice guy, and don't take this the wrong way:
But if you get frustrated and upset because your dog jumped in a pond and Tesco ran out of chickens?
The next 60 years is going to be harsh.
Wash your hair at 5pm before dinner... ya big sap..
ooooooh there was no warm water so I broke a nail ;)
> Don't worry mate, you'll have a good day tomorrow to make up for
> it!
I hope so!, now if anyone from SR is listening, A great way to start tomorrow would be with a GAD or a FAD. But never mind, it wont happen! (they were probably going to give me one, and have now decided not to after this!) LOL I'm going insane!
