No coffee. No toilet roll. No Stella. She's not in the cupboard head down in the mop bucket. She's not at the back of the bins, legs akimbo. I'm out of ideas.
 
hhmm not sure how this red wine drinking will affect my drag tomorrow but right now it tastes mighty fine. My essentials for work are in hand (clothes ironed, lunch,dinner,bag packed) so all I need to do now is get up at 6am and act it out till 8.30pm. I believe the drag is strong in me as I break up for 2 weeks a week tomorrow (so x5 13 hour shifts to go). Though I may take on a extra drag shift due to being stung £280 on car repairs...:(

Now for a really important question: how many of us take a pencil case to work?

I don't , but I don't see it as strange - you need pens, rulers, pencils, sharpeners - and a pencil case is a valuable tool which can stop n'er do wells nicking stuff (as long as they don't nick the pencil case )
 
I have 2 pencil cases but only one comes to work with me (sorry Bagpuss) & find it keeps my pens etc in order. It is a sad fact that I work in a area where pens are like gold-dust & people will try & claim them to be their own.

I also work in a area where it is usually the 3rd stapler that works.

I audited my personal work stationary yesterday and it is spartan. Have a lockable (unlocked) drawer in my desk which contains three pencils, a pencil sharpener, a ruler and my lucky pen. Often the lucky pen travels with me but I don't use a pencil case.
 
I hate my body sometimes. I have to be in work today, or at least this morning, otherwise the newbie will be on his own and all sorts of "Some Mother's Do 'Ave 'Em" scenarios may occur.

However last night I had dizziness and nausea so couldn't sleep well and while getting ready for work, despite being dosed up to the eyeballs, I have got the worst period pains I have had for 4 or 5 months. Sat on the train in tears because the cramping was so bad. Am now in the office but debating whether to retire to the toilet floor, which has never looked more comfy, in case I throw up! Though that does rather defeat the object of being in.

I keep telling myself that every minute that passes is another minute closer to feeling better and remind myself how utterly joyful I will feel when the pain has gone....however if previous experience is to go by I have another two hours before I reach that state.

I don't even dare, or want, to have a cup of tea in case it makes me sick :(

Hopefully my friend will be in this afternoon at which point I might just say "I'm outta here!"

Gruh...and Grrrr! :mad:
