Sleeping

Why is it always so hard trying to get to sleep? Maybe this is just me, but I'm sure this is not the case!

But even so on the odd occasion that I fall asleep when I want to, or before I want to, I end up waking up at stupid hours way before I intend to!!

I'm sure I've tried most of the recommendations that have been suggested to help anybody and everybody get to sleep... (Short of sleeping pills...) But yeah... Counting sheep, a glass of warm milk, reading a book, going for a run.... Etc...

I guess that when I try to get to sleep my mind becomes too active and decides it wants to think of random things!! which can be interesting, but very annoying!!

So I shall say Bon Nuit!! And hope that you all have super duper dreams!!

Tuesday 17th May 2011

Ok,

So I was meant to type this up in my head while it was still fresh...

However,
As things happen I just couldn’t be bothered!! I’m pretty sure that not many of you care about this ether so going to tell you anyways... makes sense right?? No? Good!!

This happened last month, yes a whole month ago. But hey who’s counting right!! I guess I could say that it was almost a near mass injury experience! (not death!)

So. The short story is I got crashed into and my car flipped onto its roof. Result = write off!! And here is the newspaper report!!


The long story is... I was pottering along Clarendon road going onto Collingwood road, this crosses over Regent Street but Regent Street has to give way / yeld to me, so it’s my right of way. (sort of a one way system!)
Anyway while I was pottering along this road just as I was about to cross over the “intersection” I saw a green car and the back of the drivers head! Clearly looking the wrong way! And what made things worse... he didn’t look like he was slowing down!

When I saw this, and as I was practically crossing over the intersection, I tried to avoid him by steering closer to the right, thus giving more time! Didn’t work! He still managed to hit me on the back left side rear quarter! The “hit” managed to push my car’s rear right wheel over onto the kerb where this, I guess helped to cause my car to flip onto its roof! As this wheel was the only one that got damaged!

Although the crash, bang, wallop, happened within like 5-10 seconds it did actually feel it took a lot longer! And you can remember things quite clearly! But nope nothing flashed before me!
So. My thoughts;

1. “Oh he hit me! Shit!”
2. “Oh my car is flipping”
3. “Oh, I’m upside-down”
4. “SHIT, better get out of this car!” (Surprisingly kids you should always wear your seatbelt! The seatbelt works even if you’re upside-down!!)
5. I’m out of the car first thing I shout.... “HE WAS LOOKING THE WRONG F**CKING WAY!!”

So now I’m out of the car, proper angry, and everyone around me was telling me to calm down! (Don’t think I spoke to the other driver!)
Anyhoo, the police arrived within 10-15 minutes and took a breath sample and statement... and then I had to wait ages for the car to be flipped the right way up so I can get some stuff out of my car!!

So, that’s pretty much it! Any questions/comments... thought not!

And now... some more pretty pictures!




Love and all that!! M x

Friends

Ok, so i posted this on another blog couple of days ago, thought I'd post it on here!!


So,

Forget Facebook friends,

Forget Bebo, msn, yahoo.

How many people would you actually call your real friends?

Have a think.

How many of these people would you want to call/text randomly with any sort of news, or just a random chat.

How many of these people would you actually want to meet/catch up?

How many people would you tell what you are feeling etc.

Have a think.

I would say about 10% of your “friend” count on Facebook.

Am I wrong?

Sleepless Thoughts

Ok,
So I'm writing this on my blackberry while I'm lying on my bed making a very poor attempt at trying to get to sleep!!

Yes you could say that I should just forget about writing what I am thinking at this moment in time, however what I have found is that the best "eureka" moments happen when you are just about to nod off!!

I mean, I personally have had many thoughts in my bed, and quite a few of them have been amazing ideas, and thought "I should write them down before I forget." However due to the lack of pen and paper, the "amazing" idea just gets tossed back in to the deepest darkest part of my brain never to return.

So, I thought I would share this thought with you and hope more of you may start blogging in your bed, or wherever you are, at any strange time during any strange day!

After all, I feel that a large majority of people will have a "smart" phone of some description, whether its a; nokia, apple, Samsung, Motorola, htc, or blackberry. If you have these phones, most likely its going to have a notepad of some description, thus your ideas can be noted instantly.

So, this was my bright idea of my night, along with lots of random songs spinning around in my head!

Well. Hope everyone has a good June as its the start of a new month!!
