Went to the hairdresser’s, talked about cats with the hairdresser loads, then saw a lovely cat get run over by a car on my way back home. I left my car in the nearest place possible and checked how homeboy was only to find him dead. Didn’t look good. Put him in a plastic bag and his owner’s neighbour took him with him.
I have a pretty good visual memory and can’t get those images out of my head. It also reminds me of that day I found one of my hens headless after a fox attacked her.
Two ladies I knew and was close to passed away last weekend too. It is what it is but it is a lot right now.
I could do with a couple big glasses of Caol Ila but have to drive later. Sitting at home drinking alcohol-free beer, smoking cigs, staring at walls, feeling pretty empty.
Pulled my back (again!) having a nerf battle with my son in the garden. Was supposed to be skating tonight. Gonna lube up with deep heat and eat ibuprofen and pray/hope it’s better in the morning.
Tried to explain to my wife that I have to skate this weekend and she looked at me like I was a crazy person.
Found out a friends dad took his own life a couple of days ago, I never met him but just feel so bad for her, shes just had a baby a few weeks ago too.
The dad had some really weird side effect to a drug he was prescribed a few months ago and had lost most of his memories, couldn’t really remember his family or how to read, how to do a load of things but some other things like driving and reading road signs had stayed, no logic to the gaps and nobody could figure out why, Guess it all got too much for him.
Grandma’s funeral today. Hadn’t processed anything so when the coffin rolled up, pretty much lost it for that point until the end of the service. We had some amazing memories and was such a genuine, kind person. Helped all her neighbours out, one is still rocking at 105! My brother and cousin did the reading there I couldn’t do it.
Felt much better when I got to the wake so did my reading there. Quite a lot of people so hyped I did it.
So glad she got to spend time with my son, weird day.
Flying to Singapore for work. Have to speak at an event on thursday and I’m not really ready for it and I know I’m gonna be stressing about it all day tomorrow.
Flight delayed as they had to swap planes, no in-flight entertainment, screens aren’t working. Kid behind is gonna be kicking my seat the whole way, I just know it.
Just lost my wedding ring again. Fuck knows when I last had it, pretty sure I had it when I got to the office. Searched the office, been through bins, could be anywhere between here, kindergarten and home, ffs
I bought a shit, backup ring the first time I lost it from a jewellers in walthamstow so can wear that one for now.
First time I was opening a carboard box, one that slips tightly inside another, and it was found by someone taking out the rubbish about 3 weeks later
Second time I took my gloves off and shook my hands to warm them up, surrounded by 6 inches of snow, and of course it flew off but somehow managed to find it. First thing I did when I felt it fly off was take my phone out and take pics/video exactly where I was as it would’ve been impossible to find the same place again and I’d have to wait a few months for the snow to melt.
If you’re in the Midlands any time soon, there are places in Jewellery Quarter, Birmingham that can resize titanium rings. I took mine in on Saturday. Need to go up 2 sizes!
Surely they’re just selling you new ones and telling you they’ve been resized? I think mine cost like 50 quid. They probably have a big drawful of them!
