Andrew pushed me out of bed

Yes you see you all feel sorry for him but....

Well I have no actual evidence that he did this becasue I was asleep at the time, but, I woke up when I scraped my ankle on the sticky out bit on our bed as my foot went to stop me from falling by stomping on the floor. Now I doubt I will have pushed myself out of bed and so the only explanation for this incident is that Andrew pushed me. And due to this jarring awakedness I now have a stiff neck.. which is nice.

Andrew denies the charges. Well you can go with the innocent until proven guilty thing if you like, but I know he did it. The jury rests.

So went back to the quack....

And I don't have apendicitis which is great but not really what I was expecting from him. He basically said, "So I am very relieved you don't have apendicitis" I said "Great so the pain will just fade in a week or so then" and as he was running a little (1 hour)late he replied by saying that he has no worries about me and pushed me out of the door. Now it might just be me but that is not quite the explanation of what has been wrong with me for A MONTH that I expected. I mean I don't go to the doctor with a sore throat and expect him to tell me it's not throat cancer so he has no worries. No I would expect him to say it is tonsilitis or.. well I don't know any other throat infections. God damn him.

Anyway I'm feeling not so bad today. Been to the big smoke though. Have I told you I hate that place? Black bogeys again. I mean I am only in the actual city (ie not the office) for about an hour tops... it mings.

(NOT) Alan Milburn: MP for Darlington: Brighton rocks

Alan Milburn's assistant will be blogging from Brighton.

Hmm

Is it just my weird, twisted imagination, or does this Sims 2 character playing The Sims look like he's enjoying it a little too much?

God damn it.

So having managed to knock the sore throat on the head, I still have stomach cramps and so go to the doctor...... three and a half weeks after having food poisoning and not having been given anything to cure my ailment.... So this time not only does he scare the holy crap out of me by beginning his diagnosis with "I've done quite a few Apendectomies...." Not going to be a good start.

Anyways I don't think I have appendicitis, he has given me two concurrent courses of antibiotics to last a whole week (So much for not prescribing them regularly), I have a week long course of each. One sort I have to eat with meals otherwise I will be ill and the other I am not allowed even a teaspoon of alcohol otherise I will be very sick. Anyways I have to go back on Monday (which clearly means that I will not have finished my antibiotics). I wonder why that is. Surely wait until the course of antiboiotics is over and done with. If I get really ill on the antibiotics I have to go back to the doctor earlier..... hmm he sounds confident.

Also offered me another couple of days off work. But having been back for a week and a half, thought it would be a bit rude to accept...stupid girl.

So I shall take the god awful tablets and tolerate my alcohol free week, and hopefully I will be better soon.

What would have been the issue with giving me one course of antibiotics 3 weeks ago when I needed them?! Oh well, in good English spirit I will be glad that I have them now.

Enough already

It would seem that having just recovered from the old food poisoning disease (or just about), I now am getting damned tonsilitis again. Probzbl the third time this year, but I am not having them out until I have permanent tonsilitis. No way.

So at the early hour of 20:50 I am off to bed. Just had two cups of tea and before that buttercup syrup and earlier soluble aspirin. Damn my inability to skip any form of disease and petulance and remain healthy. Another sign that I need to do more exercise and get fit. When will I learn?

Today I am mostly wondering.....

whether I have lost any weight. Now a few of you may be thinking why don't you just weight yourself... and a couple more will be thinking that this is a slightly obvious post to put on... yes I do wonder most of my life whether I have lost some weight, but This is different wondering becasue I have had food poisoning which then resulted in colitis (which I had never heard of before but is summed up in Andrew's caring description in the sentence "Ah shut your swollen colon"). Anyway thsi has meant that I have eaten little more than yoghurt toast and rich tea biscuits for a week and a half.. I managed potatoe and butternut squash yesterday which was a huge move forwards for me.

Anyway back to the original question have I lost weight. I have done literally no exercise while I have been poorly. In fact last week I scarcely moved, so the lack of food will have been balanced out, this week I have eaten a bit more and have been doing some housework... not much...because...well I am poorly! I haven't weighed myself for months so I don't know if I have lost weight or not. If I haven't then it will prove to me just how much I overeat, and so I will have to concentrate on eating lesss in general. If I have lost weight then perhaps I could just cominue the portion sizes for a while and perhaps I will be a size 12 for Christmas!!!! Ha... like that is going to happen... I can't wait until I can eat like a normal person again.

Ruff ruff ruff ruff ruff ruff ruff ruff!

Freddie's Blog: Ruff ruff ruff ruff ruff ruff ruff ruff!

Fight Fight Fight!!!

Ok, I think its time we had a scrap! The idea was mooted before. Lets see whos the hardest! I think film charcters has the best scope, I don't think there should be any limitations on who can step up. Anyone one from Flick the Ant from A Bugs Life to the Incredible Hulk. I also think a random arena generator could be interesting. Say Forest, Sea, Desert, City or something? Cos that could turn the tables if you've got The Terminator Vs Arial The Little Mermaid if its underwater?! I also think ditching the football fixtures way of playing rounds, its fairer I guess but way too fucking tedious for this kinda thing. I opt for Wimbldon rules, if you lose, you're out!

Anyway what do people reckon?
