3 Apr 2008 - Eagles R&R
Soup again for lunch - which is it?
I have my lovely earmuffs-cum-headphones on and I'm listening to all of The Eagles' Long Road Out Of Eden tracks. Again. I listened to them all on Tuesday and on the way to work this morning. I don't think I'll ever tire of hearing these songs. They are so well done. The harmonies are perfect. I'm starting to notice all the different kinds of percussion on the album now and see how intricate the overall sound is. A lot of work has gone into making this album sound perfect. And it does! The only track I would skip from time to time is "I Love To Watch A Woman Dance". IMO that's the only weak track on the album - BUT - if I had a handsome man to slow-dance with, I daresay I'd love that track too. :D
Spatzie! Thank you for your comments yesterday. I'm pleased you like the new, cheery me. No-one in a Stickam cam chat was cruel to me. I guess I'm just royally pissed-off at some of the ignorance I've experienced from one particular person lately - and you KNOW who I refer to. He's either ignorant or he just can't stand me. LOL. If I'm getting that kind of response, I don't want to hang around. The same person has been off with a couple of other people in the chatrooms - I don't know if you noticed. And, just so you are clear, I'm not talking about the person lacking social skills, who is often crude and troll-like. I'm talking about the person we discussed on P.M. one day. I'm resigned to the fact that nothing will ever come of my feelings in that direction so it's less torturous for me to just stay away than be in his space and be ignored or be hated. I am thankful that you are here to talk these things through with and that you are understanding and kind about it all. :)
Yes, David I am much more content than I was before and I, too, wish you contentment. Thanks for your comment yesterday too. :D DD people are, on the whole, really lovely, caring people and it means a lot for you all to leave comments.
Overcast and grey today. It'll probably rain when I intend to leave work at 5 and go shopping for a few bits in M&S. It seems everyone wants to go home early today. I don't mind being left on my own. I will build my time up and get time off later, either going early myself or taking a flexi-day off work.
We've been given our new holiday cards for the year ahead. I have 26 days this year - not bad, considering I've only been working here for less than a year so far. Thinking about booking myself a weekend away somewhere close. Dee can't come with me until her health has been sorted because she could collapse with diziness at any time. I would go only as far as somewhere like Whitby or Scarborough so I can get home quickly for her if I need to and only go for a couple of days over a weekend possibly. It's something to think about anyway. Just to get some fresh air.
I often still sit at the bench near the flats near our house after work. Last night there was such a lot of interesting birdsong I just sat and listened for ages. Very enjoyable. I'm sure the teenager waiting in the car at the kerb next to me must have thought me quite mad. :D
Going to listen to my fave track - No More Cloudy Days - and relax a bit more before returning to work...more typing. LOL. Told you I like my job - so much I type in my lunch hour too! :D
Love and (((HUGS))) to all regular readers and anyone else here for the first time too! Sair xx
PS The soup of the day today was tomato - did you guess right? (So riveting this diary innit?! LOL)

Richard!! {blush} You are SUCH a sweet man. Thanks for your short but very sweet comment today. Produced lots of smiles
Thanks also to whoever left the anonymous comment. I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the Lyre bird on yesterday's last entry. I laughed such a lot when I first saw that clip - it's one of my favourites from David's many series. The Lyre bird reproducing Beatles songs? That would be such fun. LOL! I'm hopelessly nosey and am sitting here wondering who has left that comment now. BUT if you wish to remain anonymous, it's fine! I was very pleased to read your happy and enthusiastic comment. Thanks.
I have some lovely food here after my little food shop. Dee is happy with what I bought. Plenty for the fridge as well as for tea. She likes her berry smoothie and I got her some figs, apricots, mixed nuts, fruit and seeds and the bread she likes. I am full very quickly with my little stomach. I've had one of my salmon sarnies and have to save the other one for later. I'm stuffed!
It was very warm today in the office and I was wrong about the weather on leaving work. The sun was shining very strongly and I felt extremely hot. Now it's evening and the sun is sinking down, the temperature has dropped considerably. I've heard rumours of there being snow again at the weekend! Ah! The weather man on the BBC Look North telly programme has just come on....... let's see what he says....... He says rain tomorrow, drop in temperature, possible snow showers on Sunday. Ugh.
I'm going to snuggle down into my covers and watch telly this evening. Although I am drawn to Stickam to see "him" again. I am determined NOT to go back. If I went back there it would be because the person who I'm worried is deliberately ignoring me or just plain hates me, really does WANT me there after all. As he's been pretty much ignoring me, then it doesn't look like I'll be back with him any time soon, unfortunately. {sigh}. I'm being strong. I'm NOT going to go to chat at all.
On the One Show on BBC1 now, they're covering Thalidomide - the drug that was given to mothers around the year 1960, for morning sickness. The drug was withdrawn after it was discovered the connection with large numbers of deformed babies were being born. My Mother was given the Thalidomide drug by her doctor when she was pregnant with me but decided not to take it! She wouldn't even take a painkiller for a bad headache, the majority of times. I am lucky she was like this. Very lucky.
