So I've woken up at 4:30am 3 days in a row. I worked 6-1 Saturday, 6-12 yesterday, and 6-12 today! Every 6 weeks I have to work 2 weekends and one Saturday at Admiral. Today was a bank holiday in the UK, so the same early start applied again. So needless to say, I'm wiped out. Yesterday I came home and slept 4 hours straight. I'm trying to think of ( Read more... )

Hi everyone! Just getting around to posting some photos from my day out on Canada Day. I had cropped and resized all the photos on the 1st, but I'm just getting around to posting them now. I bought some new batteries for my energy sucking camera, so I took it out and tried to get some nice pics. I really can't wait ot get a better camera- this one ( Read more... )

Hey! Long time no see everyone! I'm such a bad lj'er! But I had to post this awesome girl's recons. She's brilliant.

I have met many different people in my life, and many of them at my current job at a call center. One of those people was Bill. He came to work with us in early 2007, and immediately was polite, kind and easily approachable. He would say "hello" to anyone who came through the doors.
