Ranting cos I'm sick

I'm at work today ..... I'm supposed to be off all week but I said I would come in one morning to make sure the cover was OK. Good job I did ~ yesterday they only had one person off and the cover was a damn mess. Seriously, they couldn't make more of a mess of it if they tried. And that so annoys me as I put so much work into making sure it will all run smoothly when I'm not here, and I don't think they even try sometimes. You won't be surprised to learn it was The Tosser who screwed it all up ~ and already people are telling me to come back and not have the rest of the week off. *is cross*

Also, I feel like crap. I seem to be feeling worse and worse each day with this cold/bug/whatever, instead of better. [livejournal.com profile] colej55 is staying with me till Thursday and I bet she wishes she were anywhere but here. I sure know I do. I tend to feel sorry for myself if I'm sick and this is no exception. I want to just crawl into bed and hide under the covers for the next few days ... but I can't. Meh.

I did, however, have a dream with Torsten in it last night, but that's unfortunately all I can remember .... a vague memory of Torsten. If footie dreams are a side-effect of this bug, I hope I never get better ~ got to find the positive somewhere, right? :)

*hugs* I hope you get better and things work out at work and you still have weird footie dreams. :)

Thank you :)

I've told them to sign me off sick for the week rather than me having to take leave, so I don't have to be officially back until Monday. Once Cole goes I will take to my bed, I think ;)

That's good to hear!

Hope you guys still manage to have a little fun in the meantime.

I'm sure that Torsten snuggles with you in your dream, to make you feel better. :)

[identity profile] the-muppet.livejournal.com 2006-11-28 07:27 pm (UTC)(link)
Torsten snuggling with me ...... ?

*big dorky grin*

And aw, you're using the old Torsten icon ;)

So .... now you've unblocked me on Skype (!) should I give you a nudge in a couple of days (after Cole has gone home)?

[identity profile] the-muppet.livejournal.com 2006-12-03 12:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Nudge me anytime! :D

I will! Do you want me to rip and upload the DVD for you? Then at least I will have something to share if you're still happy to exchange clips ;)

*hugs*

[identity profile] taelonmahal.livejournal.com 2006-12-03 03:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh no, you don't have to do that. I wouldn't be allowed to download it anyways. But thanks for the offer. :)

[identity profile] the-muppet.livejournal.com 2006-12-03 04:19 pm (UTC)(link)
How about if I burn it and send it to you? Would you like that ... or would you rather I didn't?

Um ..... is the resaon you're no longer downloading shows because you can't/aren't allowed to? Don't have to answer, as I know before you didn't want to talk about it. Just my mind working overtime on being helpful ;)

Think about the DVD thig though, as I really would like to share it with you if you want it :)

*hugs*

[identity profile] taelonmahal.livejournal.com 2006-12-03 05:08 pm (UTC)(link)
I certainly wouldn't mind you sending me it. *lol* But you don't have to, of course. :)

Btw, guess what I'm drinking right now. :D

[identity profile] the-muppet.livejournal.com 2006-12-03 05:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Cadburys Highlights Fudge drink? Glad you like it ;)

Attempting to burn it now :)

Was the lack of response to the middle bit an oversight or you refusing to answer? :P

[identity profile] taelonmahal.livejournal.com 2006-12-03 06:55 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm at my second cup now. :D
When I first tasted it I was a little confused, because it didn't the taste the way I remembered it... then I remembered that I always added milk. And now it tastes just PERFECT! *happy sigh*

You wrote you understand if I don't want to answer, so I didn't answer. *lol*

[identity profile] the-muppet.livejournal.com 2006-12-03 07:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Bless! I'm glad Cadburys Highlights can make you so happy! :D

You wrote you understand if I don't want to answer, so I didn't answer. *lol*

I did, so I will shut up now ;)

[identity profile] taelonmahal.livejournal.com 2006-12-03 07:47 pm (UTC)(link)
It's the little things, esp. if you can't have them all the time. XD I'm sure you'd be excited about German food, too, if you had been here for a little while.... or maybe not. I can't think of anything that you wouldn't be able to get where you are. At least not in Ireland. I don't know about England.

Oh, poor you, I hope you get better soon and when you go back to work next week you aren't awaited by a chaos!

Perhaps you have some more dreams about Torsten, that can cheer you up a bit ;)

[identity profile] the-muppet.livejournal.com 2006-11-29 08:31 am (UTC)(link)
If I could dream constantly about Torsten I doubt I would ever get out of bed :)

Also, I feel like crap. I seem to be feeling worse and worse each day with this cold/bug/whatever, instead of better.

The same over here, and I have no idea what to do against it, except for lying on my sofa and hoping that it'll go away.
I hope you will feel better soon. *hugs.and.hot.tea*


Who is Torsten? I'm not into football at all (anymore).
Before I started to watch Farscape and SG-1 I never had dreams with any celebs in them. I have no idea why I dream of them now. Most of the time it ends with Daniel being dead. I mean, really dead. Weird...

*hugs* Hope you're feeling better!

Not quite ~ but Cole goes today so I will then be going to bed for a while to try and sleep it off ;)

Thanks :)

*hugs*

Hope you are better soon, people pissed me off at work today too so I am right there with you on that one.
Caffeine, Nyquil and plenty of dreams, uhh I mean rest.
I think I figured out who Torsten is. :)

My non-stop coughing the last couple of days has left me with barely a voice left, and I seem to have no energy at all, but it's a great excuse to sit all day on the sofa watching SGA/Heroes/RH, etc ;)

Torsten plays for the German club Werder Bremen, and also for the German national team :) I love German football, particularly the national team, but Torsten is my favourite ;)
