Last night I came across the strangest case of homophobia I've ever seen. I was in a chatroom with some friends, and we knew that one of the guys believed that lesbians were the lowest form of scum, so we decided to have some fun and did some serious flirting. Now bare in mind that I am straight, so everything I said could be taken two ways ( Read more... )

So it's the last day of the year, and of course we are supposed to look back and take stock of what we've achieved this year ( Read more... )

A few weeks ago I finished my cognitive behavioural therapy for my depression, and I've come to realise for me to move forward, I have to look to the past and admit who I am, why I am, what I became, and what I will become. It won't be easy to write it, won't be easy to read it, but if I don't do this I doubt I'll ever move forward completely in my ( Read more... )

well having a lazy day today, still in my PJs with no intention of getting out of them. I'm resting my knee, woke up and it was really sore due to whatever way I was lying on it. It's eased off a bit now, so should be fine for tomorrow *fingers crossed*!!!

I don't know what's wrong, but to say I'm wound up would be an understatement. It's been a few weeks since I felt this bad, and I'm not liking it one little bit at all.

Decided to up my workout at the gym today, which turned out not be such a good idea. Yeah, I buggered up my knee, hurts like hell to bend it now. Dear god I should come with my own government health warning "Danger this person can seriously damage your sanity as well as her own body!!!!"

Ah well, two days to recover I suppose.

Well braved the rain and winds to head into to Ayr to the gym again today. Had another full on session. 25 mins on the bikes at no less than 10mph, which had the sweat pouring off me. Then had a good 20 minutes on the weights again today, which felt really good. Ended it with 10 mins on the rower before my legs felt like they were gonna drop off. ( Read more... )

Well today was by biggest workout so far. Started with 25 mins on the bikes at a constant 9mph. Then over 30 mins in the weight room where my best set was 100lb on the leg press. The other weights were all increased a bit, but nothing like that one, it was very cool. I then finished off with 5 mins on the rower as a cool down. I was well knackered ( Read more... )

I received an email from a friend in Canada today. This woman is amazingly kind, generous, caring, and sweet, but she's been treated like crap which is totally unnecessary. I'm so angry right now and controlling my temper is difficult, especially since the person who treated her this way lives next door to me, and I could easily go relieve some ( Read more... )

No matter what we think of past and present conflicts, we can not take anything away from the men and women who have served, and still do serve. Each are proud of what they do, and unfortunately too many have gave the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty. Their sacrifice should never be belittled or underestimated as we owe them all which we are ( Read more... )
