    Can you tell I'm trying to avoid working?

    The gig was really good! Didn't get home until 12.30 though. I. am. knackered. I really didn't want to get up this morning, and I have an early start for work on Saturday, and Sunday we have the NFL so that will be an early start (for a Sunday anyway) and then back to work on Monday! WOO! *dies a little inside*
    The only silver lining is that the clocks go back on Sunday, so I gain an hour of sleep somewhere.

    Most of the time we Shazam music in adverts and TV programs and check out the album on iTunes. That is when you find the unknown bands.
    All of that sounds exhausting, but hopefully worth it! Lol.
    And this is what naps are for.

    SO TRUE! I <3 naps so much. I haven't had time to have one recently. I might have to squeeze one in on Saturday after work...

    I feel so guilty for buying food/drinks for myself when I’m not gonna keep them down anyway.
    Starting now I think I just won’t eat lunch and I’ll go for a walk by myself and listen to music in between classes instead.
    I probably should have just been honest yesterday and told V I’m losing it. If it gets any worse I’ll talk to her and see if I can get some kind of help or something. Because normies benefit from therapy too and I don’t have to be actually sick... but I’m pretty sure I can figure it out on my own.

    Could you try eating something light like nuts, fruit or yogurt? You don't want to burn yourself out, or even worse pass out.

    How much longer have you got on your course? Do you think you could hold it together until the end? If not maybe have a small conversation, not go into details, but enough that she knows you are struggling a little? You might get some leeway on deadlines. When I was at uni a girl in my class had a friend commit suicide near the end of her final year and she was given a 6 week extension just to ease the pressure.

    Meh, I had a thing for 'Umbrella', but that was mostly friend association. I could take or leave Rihanna. Sometimes I like her, and other times she does such stupid things I put my hands up in the air and walk off.

    The only thing I like about Taylor was that lawsuit against the DJ who groped her and she only took $1. That proved she didn't do it for money and I'll give her kudos for that. Thinking about it, that is probably what got the ball rolling on the whole sexual harassment thing. So yeah, I'll give credit where credit is due. But she should stop making music...

    No, she should go back to making country music. She's good at that.

    On the whole I agree with you, although I secretly love Taylor's shake it off. Don't tell all my metal friends...

    Me, too. It's on my gym playlist.

    Fruit Loops for breakfast had ZERO staying power and I now have 810 calories left for lunch AND dinner. Guess it's going to be a maintenance calorie day. :/

    Not even close. Went into full screw-it mode and ATE ALL THE THINGZ!

    Bad news - just ate half a carton of ice cream ... good news - sent the rest down the garbage disposal. I have no control with ice cream in the house.

    Ice cream is my favorite! I had Blue Bunny Cherrific Cheesecake last night. It's so yummy!

    I can't decide whether to like this or not. And when did you even find time to eat all the things? Weren't you at Wrestling?

    If I could bring myself to throw away I've cream, my three sons wouldn't allow it. But if that's what you have to do, then good for you.

    Meh, I have stuff to do, just don't want to do it. :unamused: Hour and a half left to go! I'm surprised how productive I have been actually.

    I’m definitely not going to pass out if I haven’t already, so don’t worry about that. (Shame— I read too many novels as a child and always wanted to faint in dramatic situations but it never happened...)
    I have just a bit less than two months left, so I should realistically be able to keep it together for that long. :)

    Ok, I apologise for the GIF. I just have a deep rooted hatred for Pop music. :# I just don't like how fabricated it all is.

    Forgive me?

    You'll be surprised. I nearly passed out Christmas shopping one year. I started when the shops opened at 8am on a small breakfast and I didn't stop until 7 in the evening when I went all woozy in a shop.

    For what? I wasn't offended. Taylor Swift is terrible at pop music and should go back to country, but she won't so Gif away. :)

    I am going to say that fainting in public is highly overrated. "you know, that girl who faints." is not a great desciptor to have attached to you. I am that girl (anemia is vile) and I can think of at least 3 times it's happened to me.

    I think most of Rihanna's music is good.....as for Taylor, I love Shake It Off but cannot think of another one I like or even know the name of, lol.

    The latest Taylor song is "Look What You Made Me Do" and even my 23 year old daughter hates it.

    The only time I've ever passed out in public was on the London underground following a night of food poisoning. It was hot and stuffy and I was dehydrated and luckily my husband caught me. But nobody helped! He had both our bags (we were on the way home from a short break) and was trying to to hold me up and get me off the train, and nobody even asked if we were ok. Londoners! (Sorry Lois, but it wouldn't happen in Yorkshire

    I can't actually imagine Lois or POF not helping someone in obvious need, but I have a co-irker from NY who just doesn't see anything that doesn't directly concern her.
