Today I,

...realised where exactly my inappropriate gene came from.

Father: *rifles through suitcase and laughs* It's big enough to fit a dead body in!
Mother: *face falls, expression sours* Not now... *walks away*

At least there can be laughter in sad times.

Today, I

Just got wrong for shaving my legs in the shower...

Reason 101 for wanting to move out - my parents obviously don't know how to bring up a daughter ¬_¬

Let me win the lottery please!!!

Today, I

I found this article in the Northern Echo today (3.5.2012).  I just had to share it...

Presumably this will mean all those born in 2000 onwards are allowed...

Would like to see that in another 10 years...

Today, I

I thought this image would sum up my feelings on life.

I couldn't help but add this picture to the blog.  Here is my Sim.  She is earning little more than 300 simeloens (can't spell that!) a week.  She's trying to make it as a rising star.  All she owns is what you see and a fridge, cooker and counter.  She can't afford to pay the weekly bills.  Her cheap sofa was stolen by a burglar and her bin kicked over by a random man.  She does Sing-a-grams all day and even interrupts her sleep to cater for the population.  She is single, and doesn't even own a pet.

Here she is having made her dinner on an oven she replaced after having a house fire whilst sitting on a blocked toilet.

This is my image of everyone's life just as they're starting out.  It starts out rubbish, but hopefully with time you'll find your place in society, lay down the bricks and mortar and build your life to something you can be proud of.  And then you can reflect on your low times and smile.

I hope this is true, and I hope I end up doing that!

Today I,

have had such a weird day and it's not even 10am.

By 8.00am I had already been hit on by a new worker in the corner shop on the way to work.  He asked me how I am, where I work, and when I told him 'in the castle' he replied 'ah a princess working in the castle'.  I gave him a wry look, muttered 'no, not quite' before racing out of the door...

When I arrived at work, the first guest to check out was a chatty 50 something year old who decided to regale his success with the females at his conference last night before becoming highly irrate and suddenly possessed by tourettes when he dropped his laptop on the floor.

Something is definitely in the air today...

Today, I...

Today, I wondered at the idiocy of some people.  At work as a receptionist to a semi-hotel-like-thing, the parking warden turned up.  He asked if there was a guest in residence who had left their door wide open and their handbag on display on the seat with the door open...

...and I had one person return to the reception desk regarding the fact that they'd locked their key in their room...

...and finally a man asked for one of his clutches to be kept behind the reception desk despite needing two O_o

Despite this, I, too, am an idiot.  A man phones inquiring as to what the website of our establishment was...I did not know.  Fail of the most basic kind :(
