    That's cool dude. When urbanhippie laughs at one of your jokes you know you've made it. You may as well roll over and die happy now. :D

    I dunno man... I haven't quite finished my checklist of things to achieve before I die happy.

    Achieve the state of Bodhi, in accordance with tibetan buddhism [ ]
    Change one person's life for the better with a musical composition of mine [ ]
    Write, shoot and direct my own independent film with a soundtrack by me [ ]
    Perform at least one stand-up comedy show [ ]
    See Pearl Jam live [ ]
    Write a novel that, however commercially successful or unsuccessful it may be, causes one person to have an affinity with it in some way [ ]
    Make Sarah laugh [x]

    As you can see, my life is 14.3% complete :)

    You can borrow my novel if you like. Sarah liked it. We can scrub her memory of it and then you can hand it to her. What do you think?

    That's not reeeeally what I had in mind... sort of defeats the point n shit. but like, thanks anyway :)

    let's talk more about this ability to wipe people's memories! shall we use it for good or for evil?

    She's like a stalker. I've been signed off my work for 2 weeks due to work-related stress and depression. It's been months and months of not feeling right because of work, yet working through it anyway. I've finally cracked and got time off. But she's repeatedly called and left messages since I went away to 'see how I am'.. yeah right. What a torturous lady, seriously.

    Have you declared why you are off?
    If she doesn't know it is because of shit like that...well...then maybe she is genuinely concerned.
    I would bring it up with the doctor.
    The only thing I enjoy is having no feelings....being numb rocks!

    And I won't make the same mistakes
    (Because I know)
    Because I know how much time that wastes
    (And function)
    Function is the key

    Yeah, she knows all about it.. I've even called meetings about it, but I wasn't listened to while it was going on.. She knows, she just likes to brush things under the carpet. And she's continuing to do so. :)

    I shouldn't take it too personally Mark, seems 'modern management' works this way. They say it's trying to 'help you back to work', but really we know it's trying to pressure you back, which is wrong.
    You know at our place in the last year I have seen people come back to work, albeit on light duties, with broken limbs. I mean, what use a postman with a broken arm? But the fuckers got him back there.
    I came, I saw, I concurred.....

    There's just too much pressurising and mind games and politics... I'm done with it.

    Me + the rat race = 0

    what she is doing could WELL be construed as harrassment... especially in todays litigious climate... so ya may wanna throw that word in at some stage :) . Next time she calls and asks how you are, reply 'you do realise I'm off on work related stress, my doctor recommended a break, how does speaking to YOU ten times a day constitute a break from work? When I am ready to come back, you'll be the first to know but in the meantime, fuck off' :)
    The Astoria??? Orgazmic!
    Verona??? it's all surmountable
    Dublin 23.08.06 "The beauty of Ireland, right there!"
    Wembley? We all believe!
    Copenhagen?? your light made us stars
    Chicago 07? And love
    What a different life
    Had I not found this love with you

    OK the latest in the saga.

    I just got off the phone from an employment advisor from the disability organisation I'm registered to. Apparently I'm being very immature and unprofessional about this, I shouldn't be off sick and I'm doing all this wrong. She just spoke to my boss and reckons that she was actually very nice and accomodating to her ideas for my re-introduction back to work. I just told her 'Well you've been duped as well then haven't you, I told you she'd charm the pants off you.'

    Is there ANY fucking humanity left in this world? Or is everyone conspiring to fuck me up and not help me?

    One of my friends is going through the same kind of thing and the company tried everything to get her back. Not just for their sake but for everyones. (The governments, the company and herself). Of course they're going to try and get you back and working as soon as possible. At least you're needed there. It shows they value you.

    Yeah, it's been that bad. But apology accepted. :)

    apology accepted? is this 1913? ;):o

    no job is worth slitting your wrists though dudesical.

    personally i'd stick it out and just be a complete ignorant mouthy bastard to her... be like Hellsy for the day.. then she'll be scared of you :D
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    No, this company doesn't value me any more than the corporate machine values anyone.

    Clearly they do or they'd just drop you. And that's work I'm afraid. You go to work to do a job. I'll bet the people there love but if you really feel they couldn't care less, it's probably best to just keep your head down and then enjoy your time with your many friends when you get home. :)

    They didn't drop me or fire me because they were afraid if they did I'd file a lawsuit against them. Disabled people get kept on for the worst reasons because people are scared of discrimination charges.

    Personally, I think that could apply to anyone but you'd know better than me. :) I think you're being far too cynical bud. :)
