Watch this space…

Saw this program on BBC2 last night; hosted by Stephen Fry which I must admit, I really identified with, not so much in the here and now, but looking back over the last few years!  If you haven’t watched the first episode then make sure you tune in next week as this series continues to open the pandora’s box on a condition that affects more people than you may realise.

Of the symptoms he describes I could see myself nodding yes, and OMG!! YES!! a number of times, though personally “if” I were to be diagnosed with such a thing myself I would expect to be at the milder end of the scale, having never felt the need to explore professional help or medication.

Also - 9 times out of 10, given my job and lifestyle; I ended up labling so many things as simple stress. 

I have lots to think about now moving forwards.

I watched bits of a prog on channel 5 this evening about “Guys and Dolls” and I am not talking the musical here….I mean; collecting dolls I can understand, even pampering them a little with some special accessories maybe…but…Marrying a doll?  Sleeping with an “Anatomically Correct” doll????  Taking photo’s of yourself with a doll, having a relationship with a doll??? 

Ok ok….so there “are” some pros…Doesn’t cost you a fortune on QVC, doesn’t ever have a headache, doesn’t answer back, and NEVER says no….hmmmm (thinks about it) - Sheesh it’s still SO WRONG!!

After watching this program I now feel somewhat like a normal human being….thanks channel 5!!

…I really ought to create a special category for stuff this wierd!

Today - I took myself right back to my school days.  No not the bullying (well er being bullied), but the more scientific aspec of it.  You see.  I swapped around my dining room and my lounge as my asthetics were a bit screwed, now small furniture is not a problem for me (on my own); but a big heavy multi-piece unit with glass doors, drinks cabinet and drawers is another matter; I wanted to move it to the opposite wall.

Panic was stage one of the thinking process after I gauged how heavy the top section was (even after emptying and removing the glass doors)…

So, I brought in an old “sacrificial” coffee table to assist me, and employed some good old pivot and fulcrum moves which enabled me to remove the top section of the unit without actually lifting it all, I simply pulled one end of it onto the coffee table and let it bear the BRUNT of the weight.

Anyways - all moved now; so I am going to have a well earned break
