Agreed with the above. But her health needs to be taken into consideration. 

I'm amazingly hungover. Somehow ended up sleeping with a non Japanese girl last night. Ah the beauty of alcohol. 

It's diabetes, poor lass never stood a chance. Fell into a diabetic coma at 8.  Never did get the appeal of one nighters. Gotta know a bird a bit before I think about doodling her. Speaking of; there are several girls at work that I wouldn't mind doing the scooby-do shaggy with.

Same here, my man. Apparently it's called "Demisexual" in modern terms..

Damn

I knew the girl, but still they're often rubbish.

Don't get me wrong; if a an attractive bird is willing, I'm willing but maybe I'm just scared of STDs. Not that I can speak much from experience given that whole tied down situation. Though to be quite honest, I would probably bang a hooker or two if the lads threw me a 'proper stag' party.

Ohhh, well that took a turn.

Well I could never cheat really, I think that'd be the only circumstance I could forgive myself. Don't see the point in a relationship if one person is forging another relationship in secret.

Excitement. Danger. Nah just kidding, I wholeheartedly agree.

Weird week at work. Was my year anniversary of working there on Tuesday gone, my manager called me into a room absolutely fuming because the ops manager wanted to take me from his team and put me on to a brand new team because of the fact I am one of the more people people on the floor, without sound big headed.

I get on great with my manager so obviously didn't want to leave his team and told him I would say no. Then soon after I got pulled into a meeting with the lady who'd be my new manager if I was to take the offer up and she was making me promises and assurances about future progress. I spent the full day talking to other manager, including those who have progressed quickly and I even spoke to the ops manager about being trained up to be a manager myself in the mid term.

Ended up taking the offer up, much to the annoyance of my TM but it is a great opportunity. Not just that but I put in for a promotion recently and it looks likely that I will get that and I will find out next week. Over the last 4 weeks or so I have been doing coaching with new colleagues and taking training sessions as well so I have a bit of experience. The job I've put in for is pretty much all about that.

Long gone are the days of work in security and being stood doing nothing but argue with people all day. Leaving that shite to work in an office based job which has good progression opportunities is the best decision I've made. 

P.S. There is probably a work thread, but I don't care so get fucked.

Congrats mate, sounds like one of those one-time opportunities so you did good. Let's just hope your former manager doesn't end up wanting to knife you like that guy where you used to work or Pornea.

Dammit. I was gonna say food taster at Greggs

Should have woken up earlier. 

In all seriousness @Any O'Brien it sounds like this is really what you wanted to happen and it was inevitable it was going to happen. Good luck!

All I wanted to do this weekend was relax, however the wife's grandparents are in town so now we have to visit.

Falcons lost in the NFL playoffs today, so that sucks.

Got my first long run tomorrow since the 50k race, so hopefully that'll be pain free.

Other than that, not a whole lot going on, hope to be able to put in my 2 weeks notice on Monday. Oh what a joyous day that'll be.

I do. Makes it last longer. 

[nudge]

So do I, as there's so much humidity here it just goes moldy otherwise. That said, refrigerated bread becomes stale very quickly, so this is not ideal either...

My dad used to work with a woman who put eggs in the kettle when asked to have a boiled egg.

Well, English bread is awful though. So white, so soft, so... sweet (most of the time). Can't beat a good German bakery
