Everything seems to be in reasonably good nick today. No extra wrinkles visible under the pound shop magnifying glass, droopiness and bingo wings inspected and recorded as stable, hair luxuriant brunette, not even a hint of grey. :D (Thanks to the £33 spent at the hairdressers yesterday)

I pranced off to work, healthy breakfast in my belly, hair tossing like a Silvercreme advert and lovely high heeled boots on my feet ..... I felt positively youthful.

My life today ......

I spoke to my lover on the telephone and used my best 'mannish' to gently explain that he wasn't meeting my needs and to ask if he intended to attempt to meet them in the future. It was like flogging a dead and decomposing horse ..... he felt "told off" and "pressured" (poor love) and then he CLOSED DOWN!!! ..... Arghhhhhhhh ...... He couldn't talk any more, the conversation was too much for him ..... It wasn't as if I was demanding multiply bluddy orgasms!!! Ohhhhhhhh, the frustration of it all!!! (If you are reading this, WIMP, get a bluddy life ..... you don't have a clue what pressure is ..... Ohhhhhh ..... and the countdown has begun ......)

The joys of living in London ..... I was sent home from work today because of "significant risk of random, retribution shootings". The students were evacuated and staff advised to exit quickly.

There I was, looking every inch a target, having to hobble into the firing line on my throbbing hoofs. If someone had given me a gun I would have shot my own feet off! ...... Six hours in measly three inch heels and my feet show their age! Arghhhhhhhhhh

Yesterday, I read a blog about 'The power of no' so I have been practising saying no all day ...... very impowering ..... Tonight, I said no to the online commmunity that I set up three years ago ...... I need to move on, new challenges ...... I posted a note of resignation, removed my name from the welcome message and left lover boy in charge ..... Do you think he will get the message?

Day five of not smoking ..... am I f'ing bothered? ..... Anger management still a slight problem!
