When did I lose my sanity?

Sep 19, 2003 15:44

So I'm going clubbing tonight. Likely to be out late. My work called me up to see if I wanted to work the weekend. Weekend shifts start at 6am, meaning I tend to wake up at 4.30am for them. So naturally, since I'll be out until about 3.30, and will need to be up at 4.30, the obvious answer is to tell them thanks for offering me the shift, but ( Read more... )

Hi Daps! You are quite welcome for the hooray! It was well deserved, as in my albeit short time posting on boards, you are by far the most friendly and generous person I have met. But I'll accept you getting sucked into the vortex of live journal now that I can still keep in touch with you. I however don't see my own live journal in the future. Call it commitment issues...The events of your 19th & 20th Birthday's should serve as fair warning to REALLY enjoy your 21st. There are no more significant birthdays after 21 until you get to 30 and then the significance is of an entirely different kind. Trust me :) I know that you are a Metallica fan, as am I, what are your top 10 Metallica songs? Mine are ( ... )

*blush* Thanks for the kind words again! :) By the way... commitment issues? LiveJournal requires no commitment at all. :) You can even abandon it or ignore it any time you feel like it. *g* I'm beginning to see that I can't convince you though, so I'll stop trying ( ... )

Reading about your night out and knowing you have another one planned for later this week has made me realize just how much a person ages as they close in on 30. I think, "Hey, I used to be able to do that...maybe I still could do that? Then my eye lids start to get heavy by 11:00 pm and I nod off, only to be woken up at 3:00 am unable to sleep until I've answered my e-mail or made sure the dog has clean water. Really enjoy the hell out of the time between 18-26, before you're old and neurotic ;). Your friend, Misty? Sounds unique and kind of scary. Perhaps parenting will serve as a reality check about things such as, the dangers of setting fire to peoples homes. (*picture mouth dropping open*) Were you living with your family at the time? It is always good to have a friend that is crazier than you however, because if you don't....then guess who gets the title? I liked your Metallica selections as well. They are more inclusive than my own which is carryover from my own stupid unhappiness at them for ever creating something like ( ... )

I'm doing the 11pm-3am thing as well at times. That's almost entirely to be blamed on work though, mixed with a little bit of insomnia. I've had 5 hours sleep in the past two days and really wish I could get more, but I don't get a single lie-in until Friday! I was living with my family up until I was 17, when they all moved out of the house (my parents and my 3 brothers) into a pub, and I got to stay on my own at the house. So here I was, 17, living alone in a 4-bedroom house, with no responsibilities whatsoever (parents still did my washing, etc.) - and never truly understood just how lucky I was. It was heaven! A few of my friends moved in, two days a week at least we had gatherings (or maybe shindigs, but only a couple of hootenannys!) Until Misty decided to get even insaner than he usually was at these nights, and set fire, smashed holes in doors, etc. It was hilarious, if frightening, at the time. And the end result was that my parents told me I had to move to the pub with them. Bye bye house to myself! :( Entirely ( ... )
