Scotland!

Well I can safely say that I am not happy to be back in the real world and would prefer to be away, not thinking about money or work or anything like that.

But anyways.

Aberdeen to Edinburgh. 306kms.

7 days.

Anxiety Blip

Aug. 26th, 2008 | 09:05 pm
posted by: [info]lursa_esk

Massive anxiety blip this morning, strated on the way to work and finished about 2 hours into my shift. I spent the rest of the day walking around like a living zombie becaue I was so tired.

Still got a few more bits to do for work tomorrow then I need to sleep.

Not sure what I'm going to do if this carries on as it;s affecting my work and is leaving me exhausted for the majority of every day. I think I probably just need another new big project to focus all the anxity on.

Think if there's another attack tomorrow then I'm going to have to get off the caffeine and start a reallys erious exercise regime as well as the various anxiety exercises again.

Most Dreaded Phrase Ever

I love Big Brother. I hate Zombies.

I became confused as to whether to watch or switch off when Big Brother announced earlier in the week:

"This week the Housemates are going to be Zombies".

That was just cruel.

Scottish Cycle - a brief report

Aug. 22nd, 2008 | 02:12 pm
posted by: [info]funkabubble

This place rocks. And rains. We've been drenched twice now and we've only been cycling for 3 days!

Have done 120 kms in the last three days and still have another 20kms to do before we get to our B&B tonight.

So far the route has been
Sleeper train to Aberdeen
Aberdeen to Stonehaven - 27 mile
Stonehaven to Montrose - 26 miles
Monstrose to Broughty Ferry 33 miles- we're in a library 10 miles  from Broughty Ferry now

Starving for lunch now - the joys of doing pretty much 25 miles before lunch.

Will post pics and a larger review when I get home. Can safely say that scotland is amazingly beautiful, the Caledonian Sleeper is an awesome way to travel, my knees ache badly and padded cycling shorts rock.

PHP/mysql/xhtml/css - next week?

Aug. 21st, 2008 | 08:26 pm
posted by: [info]chiselwright

AN old cow-orker friend of mine dropped me a note:
I'm after a developer for a few weeks from next week. I can't remember your particular brand of programming but I need PHP/mysql/xhtml/css skills. Three weeks from next week. If not you Chisel then do you know anyone who might be after a spell of work in the Hoxton area?
Anyone interested?

Anxiety

Aug. 21st, 2008 | 09:27 am
posted by: [info]lursa_esk

I always struggle with the anxiety when I'm on lates at work. It seems to be that sitting around, doing a few odd jobs and waiting for the time to go in actually makes me anxious about work itself.

This could explain why the last few days I've been on late's I haven't been able to get up in the morning easily.

Think this morning it's going to be a full blown anxiety attack as I'm losing the battle to control it.

Can't remember the last time I had a full on attack which I s'ppose is a good thing.

My email is up-to-date and the inbox is completely empty. This is making me so happy you wouldn't believe it. I don't remember the last time it was in this state.
