What are you doing right now? (6)

[Avalon]

Still struggling to keep warm because the boiler has packed up.
The plumber isn't responding to our texts at the moment but during the last communication with him a couple of days ago it seemed like he can't replace the boiler until the week after next. Let's hope there isn't a severe cold snap then.


And right now...
I'm doing absolutely zilch.
Is it possible to die of boredom? I think not or I'd be long dead

Same here!
If boredom could kill I'd have snuffed it long ago.

Thoroughly enjoying a tuna sandwich.

[Professor Willow]

Trying in vain to think of positive things about myself that I can include on my CV, so far I have zilch.

I don't really know why I'm bothering, it's not like I have any hope of actually getting a proper job.

[Schmosby]

^^ I've stalled with sorting out my CV too

I completely underestimated how boring it would be

[Appear]

^ Definitely talk about your hobbies. I think you said once about you working on a tractor or engine just for the fun of it? That's an interesting talking point, shows self-motivation and patience, as well as being good evidence of technical and practical skills. Much better than any hobbies I could talk about.

[Rocket Spud]

Feeling shit.

[Rocket Spud]

... No, not that kind of shit.

[Schmosby]

Trying to do floor plans for someone that doesn't understand what measurements are.

Me: The long wall is 10m and the short wall is 16m?
Him: Just assume they are equal.
Me Thinking: Have you ever been alive in real life!!!!!

[Bry]

Anything to help distract me from what I should be doing!

[Counterpoint]

^Same here!

Am baking some bread. Mmmm

[Schmosby]

Listening to mum trying to blame my uncle for her almost dropping something in the kitchen. Apparently he managed this by nattering too much even though he was silent and going out through the front door at the time.

[Professor Willow]

Despairing

[Schmosby]

^What's up treacle?

[Mo34]

Getting warm in the library as I've got a while before my counselling appointment.

It's brrrr out there.

Haven't been called treacle for a long time!

Basically my bf doesn't seem to be capable of having a job and getting along with his colleagues, as his partner I feel like I should be more supportive of him but I simply cannot believe that he doesn't have some way of rubbing people up the wrong way.
Every job has been the same, great for the first few months and then he says other people pick on him or treat him like shit.
It really is wearing me down lately and I'm having to try hard not to get too wrapped up in something that I have no control over.

[Oddity]

Wishing I was going to Thorpe Park for fright night

[Toxic]

^ I'd quite like to go to Thorpe park..at any time, its a bit of a haul to get myself there though - its the only main one I've never been to

[Avalon]

^^ Any night (or day) at Thorpe Park would be a fright for me. I HATE rides

Might go one of the big bonfires around bonfire night but knowing my luck they'll be in a super muddy field where i will go flying and get covered in it

I did alton towers about 5-6 years back (I had scraps of a social life back then) We only actually went because they were keeping rides open till 9pm not for the actual "event"

Although it wasn't bad, there was a weird ghost house/jump scare sort of maze thing on....and a random bloke roaming round with a knife dressed as a clown

Don't think I've ever had a wilder Friday night

You think your living wild?

Did anyone else used to sit with an Argos catalogue and a calculator and go on a pretend spending spree? I might have done it with a Littlewoods catalogue too, because that had nice lasses in their bras to look at when me mam wasn't in the room.

[Mo34]

^

Yeah I did! Argos and the xmas catalogue my mum used to get from work.

Ahh was freemans for us not littlewoods and I was more interested in the blokies in boxer shorts

[Jen.]

Desperate times before the internet, eh?
