*taps the computer screen to see if any bloggers fall out*
Quiet here at the moment, ain't it? There's blogs being quit left right and centre at the moment - bloody cock-teasers. I guess the trend just isn't so cool anymore, eh?
Am in a grumpy today (you don't say!) - work is mega busy, some of my colleagues spend most the day talking over coffee than actually doing any work, what it is to be female is giving me stomach cramps, and the Cheesm is off away with work for a little while. Leaving me sulking tremendously and refusing to tidy up. Oh, and the Benefits System is filled with fuckwits who somehow think my Momo's slipped disc in her back has managed to pop itself back in and be miraculously cured. Because there are hundreds of jobs available to a woman in her late fifties who's not worked due to illness for nearly 20 years and can't sit/stand/walk for any lengthy duration. Arses. I should just become Prime Minister and smack them all round the head. I'd be a good Prime Minister I think. Execute the Press for a start and make them build up again from scratch with non-bastards. Or something. Hmm, rather whimsical, I think.
For the first time in years I have an idea for a book I'd like to write - I used to write stories and books all the time when I was 13/14. (I was destined to write Point Horror books as far as I was concerned). It was only at 16 I started writing plays, and since then I've never real had the patience for a novel and its inevitable narrative. Got an idea that's simple though, and gets me a bit excited when I think about it - so I may have to dig out my novel hat and see if I still have an ability for that kind of writing. We'll see - it's difficult when you've got lots of other plays you want to write.
Right - gotta go pretend that I'm doing work. I am so bored today it's laughable. Locations department keep expecting me magic cheques from my arse and look very disappointed when I can't. "What, you mean we have to get someone to authorise it before you can pay it? Good God!". I swear I wonder sometimes whether people have ever worked on other films before, the way their eyes pop when you ask them for paperwork.
On an amusing work related note, a nice old lady from the village we're filming in thought Cheeky Irish was my assistant. Which now is all I refer to him to.
Well, it's funny if you're here.
Cheesm being away always reminds me how limited I am with my friends - I can't really call on any of them for company - certainly not easily. I nearly managed a rendezvous with Huggy Boobs, but she's just not got time. Everyone else lives so far away.
I've been feeling a little lonely regarding friends lately. It's not like I'm much better at keeping in touch, but I know I don't speak to some of them anywhere near as much as I used to. There's also a big shift in attention when previously single friends become not so single - and that's a good and natural thing. Truth is, I probably hear most from my friends when things aren't going well with them - when everyone's happy and content you just don't hear from them as much. Not that I'm bitching about that - after all, happiness is what you want for your friends. I'm not about to enter that dodgy resentful territory. It's just weird to move from a place where you support someone, to not being needed at all. But that's the balance of being a friend, isn't it? Being there when you're needed. You know? Ack, I'm whiney and reflective today. I'm gonna go find some chocolate and give myself a lecture about taking life too seriously.
