literally nothing (plus angry birds)

Wow.

Just wow.

More constructively, I know what you mean about WW sales people. Sons of bitches, the lot of them.

Wow a new entry, you’re back, hello hello. Half way through the new angry birds?! But it’s so hard!!

Ahh, you’re back and in mean spirits, which is how I like you. Work sounds crap. What is The Angry Birds?

ryn How would one go about arranging that or more pertinently convince their partner it is an idea? I will persist with attempted incremental improvements for the time being but you may well be right. Either that or an affair.

Yeah, I know I should. I suppose there is the possibilty we are just not compatable in that way. But I shall not think about that just yet.

RYN Yes, and I don’t mind working hard if it is interesting and enjoyable. I just hope it is. And I know you are right. Sounds pathetic but I just want people to find me funny and interesting. I read people’s diaries even though they are a bit… well. boring. I don’t want other people to think that.

effing hell. I am expecting a westfild voucher.

ryn I have no idea what endometriosis is but they have only looked at for urinary problems so far. It is all pretty depressing.

“We all become what we hate eventually.” Does that mean I am going to go all Oriental and wear a white bikini and start calling myself Myleene(!). I must have read this but felt I couldn’t do this entry justice with a funny note. RYN: Yeah, things are very strange with this therapy. I have put a youtube clip in to explain what it is. I, too, have a Kindle but have less tube flashing

opportunities.

RYN: I don’t think so – serious business concept! LOL! Edinburgh should have suited sales twats… altho locals usually decamp for any “tourist” event!

Ryn You’re hot – don’t worry. And we have some “fun” lube but have tried that and it didn’t do the job. The medical “recommended by doctors” stuff is on the cards for the mo. When she is both up to and up for it.

RYN: Wouldn’t call myself skinny yet. However, with clothes on, I don’t look fat. However, based on BMI and suchlike, I’m overweight and more losses means better health and fitness!

Nah, she doesn’t buy any products for her de-‘tox’. Just eats lots of fruit and veg and drinks **** loads of water.

Oh, really? How strange. What was it about it that you hated so much. I didn’t think it was amazing, but I found it quite tasty. And a world news on youtube meeting would be a real hot ticket.

Maybe I do. I didn’t find it too buttery or rich at all. In fact I had dessert afterwards which I never do. I once had a steak in Cafe Rouge that was covered in so much butter I felt physically sick afterwards, but that is the only occasion something has been too buttery.

I thought you were being self deprecating! You read her blog then? Even I don’t read that! And last night was successful, thanks.

RYN She says she is nice in real life.

ryn And my wife is hot and is hardly exactly up for it. We might be onto something here…

I forgot about Thick of It, but it is not a sitcom per se. It is something else that I am not sure what is it. Peep Show is too far gone to do anything about and I don’t like Mitchell or Webb so I am happy to give up on that. Plus I have never seen a funny clip of it. I’ve never heard of Monkey Dust – is there any of it on your youtube channel?

RYN: Fabulous suggestion – u saved my bacon!!

ryn I lived with two politics students. They really weren’t interested in my chemistry chat, but I was interested in what they had to say. Thanks for saying you agree. It actually means a lot. I thought I may have been chatting ****.

ryn I am tempted to privateise your note just to be annoying. But yes. Well spotted my mistake. Maybe you will get some more readers from my reflective glory. And I think my new cammera is thinning. Maybe. I am taking back some clothes that B bought at the weekend to westfield now because she was too fat for them.

Despite my insistence that books are beautiful and should be treasured, I secretly want a Kindle because my luggage allowance on places is usually about 70% books! Lee Mee xXx

erm, I don’t think we’ve ever spoken and this entry is from last year? you confusing me with someone else maybe…

ryn She is not really a big drinker. More of a one cocktail girl, or a glass and a half of wine girl. It is a shame because when she has been drunk she has loosened up a bit, but now she drinks less than ever.

Ryn: Congratualtions!!! That is wonderful but… where are the photos, the details? How could you accept without checking that OD approves of him? xxxxx

Whoops! So excited I forgot how to spell CONGRATULATIONS!

Ok, I just friend requested a Kate Rushworth on fb but is it you? If it is, we know people in common. If not, I have just weirded out a stranger…

Nisha Kalia. You know my friend Anu who just got married? The girl in the pic is her friend. I don’t know her name, so it could be Nisha or Nisha’s bird and I would have no idea because I am SO ignorant!

ryn well, you are preaching to the converted. Try telling me mrs that though. She prefers to jog. You should probably do a new entry detailing your exciting news.

Yeah, well the next entry will have an update about that particular situation. But things have come to a bit of a head. Partial double pun was of course intended. Someone who is a selfconfessed geek should really have a blog of some kind. It is the done thing.

I liked hie blog. Or at least the holiday pics. He seems very sweet really.

ryn yeah, well I need to be able to find the good stuff again, don’t I? And Jon is obviously a lucky man to have you. I am sure he would have no need for any extra stimulation.

ryn I can do it now if you like?

Ryn If it was the just the music I would be more inclined to watch the coverage. But it isn’t just the music. It is the annoying footage of dirty annoying twats in fields, talking about the vibe of Glasto, the fooking awkful BBC presenters. But I am not a fan of music anyway. Modern music anyway. I don’t listen to any music radio, nothing on my playlist was made this century(ish). So there.<br> How is your balcony? Do you want a tomato plant?

Ryn: Thanks! Not too worried about setting up the cot because we have a Moses basket ready to go, but it would be nice to have absolutely everything ready before the time comes. I have been following you on Facebook, congratulations on your engagement! Hope you get to marry soon, not counting our baby, getting married is the best thing I ever did.

ryn Your fella is a veggie?

ryn I am not sure where that leaves you burger/steak porn analogy. B moaned this morning because I got back at half eleven last night. Am staying in tonight. Meh.

She does swear but I guess she doesnt say **** that much. I would hve thought 6 years woud have mellowed you a little, but I get the waning to keep your accent thing. I make myself sound more northern to differntiate myself from everyone else. I am just contrary, I guess.

Ryn let’s so how tonight goes but she is already complaining of tiredness…

What is your official job title, oh watcher of television and YouTubes?ryn;; Thank you, thank you, thank you! ♥!

ryn agreed. Although as you were agreeing with me in your note technically I am agreeing with myself now.

yes you did. Something about getting high and watching a sex show. Neither of which I did. But thanks for the thought. Nah, a space hot choc or cake wouldn’t have done it for me either. I am just not really interested. And if I was I’d make my own in this country. I am sure it isnt that hold to get hold of the ingredients if I was that way inclined. To me, spending ones time high in a darkcoffee shop in amsterdam is like going to paris and getting so shitfaced you don’t get to appreciate the city. I wouldn’t do that either. I actually didn’t go into any “coffee” shops when there. Plenty of coffeeshops. But nowhere offering anything extra.

I remember you did a twitpic of it. It looked mega. But how do you go about getting an upgrade? Do you just ask?

ryn;; How goes wedding planning!?

We were just given a standard room this time. I have heard of other people being offered upgrades at no or little cost though. Not for us though.

In the morning she insisted we went for a run around reading and then we were checked out by ten in order to get breakfast. Hmmm. In fact I might edit my entry and wack that in for more pity.

I’d have traded our food and cocktails for some nandos and rumpus. But I take your point.

Yeah, I have heard that said by THE MAN. You are just a tool of the establishment, innit. if that is the case then why do iplayer.and BBC news apps work on lower end android but not my 500 quid pad. not that I am bitter. Only drunk.

ryn Nah, nothing that bad. At least I think it is not that bad. No, definitly not that bad. I am sure. Ish.

You are obviously right. I guess it is not great for the confidence that my Mrs just doesn’t really enjoy me in that way. And then because of that lack of confidence I don’t feel I can tell her what works. meh. Thanks for listening treacle. I appreciate that you still come on here to note me.

RYN: It is incredibly tiring. The reason we had her so early (I say early, though I guess 27 isn’t THAT bad lol…) is purely due to my wife’s incredible powers of persuasion. Still, the sooner you have them, the sooner they grow up and leave home!

ryn More lazy than feminist. And maybe subconsiously making it as difficult as possible for me to know what i am doing own there. Is you best friend a gay guy? If not, he totally fancies you. And most people annoy me. Ironically the ones that don’t annoy me I seem to end up annoying.

Hmmm. I have just checked it out. I knew I should have had the chop. I knew it. Do you read her blog much then? And if it makes you feel better you probably turned a gay man straight. Well done. Or he decided if he couldn’t have you he didn’t want any girl.

RYN: Nah it was fine – everyone totally overreacting. On a good note: I just drove back from town when usually the whole place would be chocka with school traffic – empty streets, brilliant!

Ryn You sit next to crazy old lascelles? Small world. You have a probably heard him on the phone to me hundreds of times. Probably calling me a cheapskate for not spending any money. He is quite a character.

RYN: I’ve definitely caught onto the fact that the key to Weightwatchers is to KEEP GOING. I thought I could go it alone but I guess I will always need help to keep the lard off. Arse.

I know, its crazy isn’t it? She must spend about £150 on me and maybe £500 on B. Or even more. Who knows. But it certainly makes me feel a really weird. I hate it. Well done on avoiding the gu. Not that you need to lose any weight!

It’s a hard word, ok? Maybe that is it. Whatever the reason it really gets me down sometimes, especially as it keeps happening. In fact it happened before I had a wife at home, so that can’t be it.

I left the BBC club when I realised it was costing me ten quid a month and I hadn’t used any of the facilities in over a year. Maybe I should rejoin.

Ryn One doesn’t maintain my level of girth by not knowing when to stop the nachos. I did need more food by 2am though. And that note has really irritated me for the same reason. Why read me if you don’t like me?

ryn Tweet me that so I can try to convince B.

The top two win so the geek specs get in via a runners up spot.

ryn: Thanks for stopping by!

Pie? You are so very northern. Yes it is so so sad. If I tried a full on smog she might respond positively. But odds are she would complain I was kissing too hard, or that my mouth was too hot, or too minty, or that she hasn’t had a chance to brush her teeth or any other excuse to turn away.

Oh, I will go but I am determined not to have fun. We are off to the Defectors Weld. Remember that place from before you went all big time?

Last night was actually ok.

I had a dream about you last night. We were installing a satellite dish on a high up rooftop.

Yeah, I am not sure what the dream was about. I was just talking about you with Kev O Brian. he is desperate for your old job but I guess you already know that. We do this park run thing on Saturday mornings and B always makes a point of say lets make sure no-one talks to us. And I agree. We are weird. I just want some nice work people to befriend.

Maybe this is what happens when you hit 30. How is the job going anyways?

yeah, he’s a good one. I have lunch with him and a couple of other ex or current CRDers most days. I wouldn’t call them friends though! Part of the fear I had about getting a new job was stepping outside my comfort zone. I dread to think what life outside the bbc is like.

ryn In a couple of years you’ll be settling down to start a family, no?

Glad to hear it. You wil become a lot less interesting if/when you do!

I am sure Caitlin was even interestinger beforehand. Yes, interestinger is a word.

I am not so sure. 60 year olds who have propagated become increasingly obsessed with having grandchildren, and whereas the ones without children carry on living as they have been for the previous 30 years. I think the downside of not having kids probably really hits home when you are mid to late 70s and lonely with no-one to visit you or protect you from dodgy door-to-door salesmen.

Ryn it was you?! We had to make him put is phone out of reach in the end.

Ryn: well basically that his job is really stressful and that because his job could support us financially & mine couldn’t, that his job comes first. I don’t altogether disagree with this, but if he can find five minutes to make a coffee, then he can wash the coffee grounds away too!

I’ve never even been to Scotland before. Staying in the Aberdeen mal to aclimatise first night.

That note sounded particularly northern. Catch you around.

RYN: I will be making an audiodiary on audioboo. Will put details in my final entry tonight. Thanks for following me all this time.

Ryn: Wow, thanks 🙂
