Sleepy and tired.

No sooner do I decide on coming back to the land of blog than my life decides to get busy again. Which is a good thing in some ways.

Tomorrow, I will turn thirty years old. I will have been round the sun 30 times on space ship planet earth. Cool.

For the next fortnight however, I am dog and house sitting. I didn't want to do either. Not in a million years. It's a long story, involving inheritance money, friends of friends, untimely coincidence and general mwurgh.

The lady who lives above a friend of mine, inherited a whopping load of cash. Her birthday, incidentally, is tomorrow as well.
So a while back, she told my friend, who lives below her, that she would book them a holiday, my friend didn't believe she would.
She did, my friend went, "oh", as she really didn't want to go on holiday and leave her dog. But, she said yes and as I'm the only person she trusts with the dog and the house, I got lumbered.

I do have trouble saying "no" to people though, which is something I'm working on. It'll get easier with time though.

Nobodies perfect.

So it was last night, that I was round her place, with the lady who has told me she knows where everything is in her house, couldn't find her digital camera she bought specifically for her holiday because she hid it somewhere. "Ohhh, where did I put it?!?!?"

As I stood there, watching her go through the motions of trying to find her camera. On her time and mine. I always feel that she sucks up anything of me. So I do try to limit my contact with her, I only pop round for a visit every couple of weeks or so. If that.
So I stood there, well into the small hours, knowing full well that I'd be getting her up at five, she sleeps through her alarm clock, feeling very bored and trapped. I've slept about 4 hours, I thought that I would be getting a well deserved lie in, but it's enough to work through today. I hate my alarm clock now, it's nice to wake without one.
Thankfully, I did book off Wednesday, so I only have a three day week. Of which I'm working 10am till 6pm.

My friend is a nice person and is very giving, she just has her flaws, which the longer I know her, the harder they are to tolerate. What do you do?

So I couldn't really go away for my thirtieth, as I'd have liked to. My wings will be a Little bit clipped. I don't mind house and dog sitting, but I'm out of my comfort zone and I wanted to be comfortable, especially round my Thirtieth.

I'm saying good bye to my twenty's, doing things I really didn't want to be doing. But, such is life.

This isn't quite an upbeat post. I wish I could blog as and when my interesting thoughts come to mind, but I'm always away from my computer and any Internet connection.

I need an ultra mobile PC.

Apple, hurry up and make the multi touch screen laptop and make it affordable for me. I know there making one, they must be, especially after the release of the ipod touch. I also wish I'd have held out a little bit longer as they are releasing the iphone over here. With my current mobile phone operator.

God I'm tired, my eyes are heavy and I've been invited out by my mates next door neighbour, where I will currently be staying, for a pub quiz. Which I am looking forward to on the eve of my thrity year mark on planet earth.

But I've got to go to work, I don't finish till 6pm today. I wouldn't have minded if I could have slept longer. Gosh darn my friend. Pain in the neck. 15 ish days to go. Because I'm not entirely sure when she gets back. Add's fun to the mix.

Till later.
