Flu-y

It’s not fun having to stay in bed because you have the flu. It’s no fun at all. Especially for me as the sheer boredem drives me mental. I need to do something because I am a do-er. However, I know that if I go out I will just make myself worse, serves me right going to the gym yesterday doesn’t it… but that actually made me feel better. I can’t win really.

Medicine, aromatherapy to kill the germs, it did work, kind of. I woke up this morning for work blocked up, tired, couldn’t move, that’s not the way to be. STUPID COLD! TO HELL WITH THE SHIT WEATHER!

We haven’t had a decent summer in 2 years. The government blame global warming and as a result everything has shot up in price. Petrol because cars are bad for the environment. They have invented the hydro-electric powered car, but the release of it won’t be until every single penny is sucked out of us. I feel like I am living in Sherwood Forest with the tax man taking all our monies to keep us more while the King sits laughing at us all. WHERE THE HELL IS ROBIN HOOD WHEN YOU NEED HIM?

Now I was thinking of the cartoon Robin Hood, but then I remembered the BBC series and the Hotty that plays him. COME ON HOTTY! SAVE US!!

What is wrong with the government today anyway? Seriously, it’s not all about money. I’m pretty sure people wouldn’t mind paying taxes as long as it went to something useful other than their wages. And what is this about Gordon Brown wanting to change the law to make everyone automatic organ donors? What is happening to this countries freedom of choice? It’s not his right to be able to decide things like that, it’s ours, and if he puts this law into action then what the hell? Why should we stay in a country where freedom isn’t allowed? I might as well live in prison. Why not get rid of them? They are no use, taking up space and our money!!! I’m not for killing anyone, but if someone has to go, why don’t they?

Bloody shambles this country is. I hope I get to migrate in the next 2 years, don’t want to stay in such a bloody hole like this. We pay tax so we can get free health care but the NHS is a fucking mess. Where is our money going?! What’s the point in paying for something that is free when it doesn’t even work? Why am I paying for prescriptions? I thought it was free? I think they have lost the meaning of the word free. Look it up in a dictionary.

Free:

  • Enjoying personal rights or liberty, as a person who is not in slavery: a land of free people.


  • Existing under, characterized by, or possessing civil and political liberties that are, as a rule, constitutionally guaranteed by representative government: the free nations of the world.


  • Enjoying political autonomy, as a people or country not under foreign rule; independent.


  • Exempt from external authority, interference, restriction, etc., as a person or one's will, thought, choice, action, etc.; independent; unrestricted.


  • Able to do something at will; at liberty: free to choose.


  • Acting without self-restraint or reserve: to be too free with one's tongue.


  • Ready or generous in giving; liberal; lavish: to be free with one's advice.


  • Not subject to special regulations, restrictions, duties, etc.: The ship was given free passage.


  • Of, pertaining to, or characterized by free enterprise: a free economy.
    that may be used by or is open to all: a free market.


  • Uncombined chemically: free oxygen.


  • Not subject to rules, set forms, etc.: The young students had an hour of free play between classes.


  • Without cost, payment, or charge.


Eat that Government.

Sweetcorn, Tea and the Flu.


I'm sitting here drinking a cup of tea and thinking, don't we all just hate Mondays? I mean seriously, Mondays... Monday is the day of the moon (Latin). Now when you think of the moon, you think of night time, and what do people do at night time unless of course you are a) crazy, b) an insomniac? That's right, give yourself a star... SLEEP!

Monday should officially be the day of sleep. I have decided to crown it the day of sleep. Monday glooms are no more for now Monday is the day of the sleep.

So the usual working hours apply 8 – 4pm and waking up this morning feeling like the insides of my nose had exploded is not a good feeling. I have been through the day with my nose deciding that it was going to leak at random so I might as well sit here with a tissue stuffed up my nose. How attractive am I on a scale of 1 – 10? 10 being fitty and 1 being I feel nauseous... I'm going to go with 3.

Some interesting other things I was reading about Monday that the day after Easter is known as Black Monday. It says on dictionary.com that the reason for it's reputation as Black Monday is a mystery but these people are so 1756 isn't it obvious? BLACK MONDAY! The day after Easter Sunday... what do people do on Easter Sunday? Eat shit loads of chocolate until they can't physically eat any more, or until you run out of chocolate. So Black Monday is named as such because you spend the whole day feeling sick and vowing never to eat chocolate ever again. Black Monday!

Now the dictionary also says it's the second day of the week... how is this possible? I thought in the biblical sense Sunday was the last day of the week known as the day of rest? You know, God made the world in 6 days and on the 7th he lay to rest. Or something. So how can it possibly be the second day of the week? I think someone has got their wires crossed in le bible... or I may have just proven that God doesn't exist... HOLD THE FORT!!! HOW DARE I SAY SOMETHING SO BLASPHEMOUS!! Meh... I'll get over it.

I hate Mondays.

More so when I feel like little gnomes are chiselling away at the insides of my nose.
