Hi your through to tech support how can I assist you today?

I have always been interested in computers, TV’s, HiFi, and that sort of thing for many years. this is great when it comes to getting the best for the least amount on money but there is a draw back, well it not a draw back as such but i think i could do with my very own tech support phone line for all friends and family to use when they need the human element to explain what all the tech talk means! for example, a cpu speed is like a big hammer and ram is the speed the hammer travels at! Sometimes its not that easy like when my friend pays £15.99 per month for dialup! WTF you can get broadband for £12.99 but do they want to listen? No! Next case Plz!

But then is the flip side of it, looking at a laptop of you know who and i just want to go through the thing and make it run faster, make all the file association work correctly, virus and spy ware checks and all the routine stuff as its never been done! but will she let me? Nope! Girls!


Things are good and last night wasn’t spent at home, don’t worry i feed the cats before i left and hopefully the Ex will feed them today but lets not forget there is a chance that will get messed up (got to carry some humour with that!) as i don’t think im home tonight! maybe my subconscious is slow moving me to Manchester with out me knowing about it! don’t think i have a problem with that but some money would be nice! Money doesn’t make people happy! it just makes things easier!



So not sure of where i will end up tonight but i know i will have a good time getting there!

Back on track

After yesterdays new and pending financial ruin i spoke to the natwest help last night but they were unable to make me an appointment for the morning but did manage to ring me at 8:30am after I got in bed 6 hours earlier! I know it proactive but come on people all I want is two lay inns’s a month and today would have been one! So after me explain I was naked and would that be ok for the reminder of the conversation the lady on the other end sounded happy, I even thought it would have worked to soften her up but no joy, the verdict! Ok but not good, everything now is very tight and if this sale doesn’t go through I think very very drastic measures will have to be taken just to keep the house, I have to speak to the loan people tomorrow but that has headed for the collection department! And the mortgage has a slight stay of execution. Tick tock Tick tock! I even went to the back to sit down and talk all through this but they had no one available! So I got her to put a note on my file saying I had tried to sort this out but the bank were unaccommodating, don’t think that would work in my job, Sorry I cant put that film on I just don’t have the people! Can you make an appointment?

So with some more motivation thanks to yesterdays turn of event (aka getting screwed over) I managed to box up some more stuff and move it over to me mum’s, I think this work good for 2 reasons. 1-I can see what I haven’t packed yet and 2-I can move stuff from her house when I move, after explaining the events she gave me £20! Now I cant tell you how much this helps me right at the time but some how being 26 and taking money of my mum made me feel a little sad, 26! And my mum is giving me the opportunity to buy my tea and food for tomorrow, I know this is short term but at one point today I started to wonder when my life went so wrong, not my present life but the one that put me in the situation.

But I started in a bad mood and finished the day in a good one, why? Not to sure! The thought of what’s to come? The thought of a person? The movies I watched (reviews to come)?
On thing that did make me stand up and take count is an email I got from a friend, it a poem about the loss on September 11th in the New York city attacks.

IF I KNEW

If I knew it would be the last time
That I'd see you fall asleep,
I would tuck you in more tightly
and pray the Lord, your soul to keep.

If I knew it would be the last time
that I see you walk out the door,
I would give you a hug and kiss
and call you back for one more

If I knew it would be the last time
I'd hear your voice lifted up in praise,
I would video tape each action and word,
so I could play them back day after day.

If I knew it would be the last time,
I could spare an extra minute
to stop and say "I love you,"
instead of assuming you would KNOW I do.

If I knew it would be the last time
I would be there to share your day,
Well I'm sure you'll have so many more,
so I can let just this one slip away.

For surely there's always tomorrow
to make up for an oversight,
and we always get a second chance
to make everything just right.

There will l always be another day
to say "I love you,"
And certainly there's another chance
to say our "Anything I can do?"

But just in case I might be wrong,
and today is all I get,
I'd like to say how much I love you
and I hope we never forget.

Tomorrow is not promised to anyone,
young or old alike,
And today may be the last chance
you get to hold your loved one tight.

So if you're waiting for tomorrow,
why not do it today?
For if tomorrow never comes,
you'll surely regret the day,

That you didn't take that extra time
for a smile, a hug, or a kiss
and you were too busy to grant someone,
what turned out to be their one last wish.

So hold your loved ones close today,
and whisper in their ear,
Tell them how much you love them
and that you'll always hold them dear

Take time to say "I'm sorry,"
"Please forgive me," "Thank you," or "It's okay."
And if tomorrow never comes,
you'll have no regrets about today.


This made me realize how shot and unpredictable life can be and to take each day like it could be our last, now don’t get me wrong I plan to be here for sometime and I apologies to the people I may upset with that comment but that's my long term plan, Live! It also made me think of people who are special in my life and making every second count.

Another thing which made my hart stop today would have been the unnatural sound coming from my car, now there are some readers out there who would argue my car has never sounded like it should and on a cretin level I can agree but the little thing has kept me alive and keeps on going, tracked it down to the alternator but roller which is slowly slicing my belts! That’s good news coz at one point I thought it could have been the bearings which would cost a fortune and I don’t need to tell you that would not be a good thing! So after some small modification the noise is gone but the problem is still there so that is another trip to the garage but it will have to be a cheap one, I will try looking at it but I don’t hold much hope for that working.

So the plan for the next few days? Go a possible party sat night and its on like Donkey Kong Monday night as there is a work party and I tend to have loads of fun, and why break with tradition a visit to the girl friends to keep my happiness level above normal should be a possibility, after the weekend it should become easier for us to find the time we both want and with out the massive amount of traveling which come on people can only be a good thing!

I hope you are well and enjoying life how it should be!

Night all

How else can i get screwed over?.

Ok to bring you up to speed with my financial standing I now cover 90% of all the out goings from my house, now I used to cover 50% but with the recent turn of events as you can imaging this changed, I got a lot of ‘that’s not my problem’ and other unsupportive comments (as it will be when the house is repossessed!) but as I'm happy so plodded along slowly sinking as I don’t earn enough to cover all the bills but with some saving I had (had as in past tense), the only thing that the Ex need to cover was a lone in both out names, now that’s 10% of keeping the house going from a full time wage so if you can do the maths you would think that it would be doable as I did. But after a phone call today (silver lining is she actually told me about it this time, not the best silver lining!) but that 10% is now just F**KED, the bank will no longer accept any payment from her on the only bill she has and they want to close her account! Now this has an impact on me as my name is on the dam thing as well as hers, why didn’t I just take it off her? Well I could not, in no way afford to pay that as well on top of everything else and the money I have spent on the house to make a quicker sale. So what next? Next stop is the bank to try and slow things down until the sale (please god go through!) of my house, I'm starting to think I'm with in my rights to ask for more that half the money as I have done all the work to the house (unless you class taking some bin bags to the tip and packing up a small hole work) made all the viewing arrangement, working with solicitors and estate agents, covered more that my fair share of all the bills and still been a nice guy about it but yet still months and months down the line I'm getting screwed over.

I add this blog in hopes weeks down the line I will be able to read this and think about the shit time I had to go through to get where I am now humm then, you know what I mean.


Thanks to Cinemec he has spared light on to my recent turn of events, Lissen closely.

Take the average amount of time you have had sex (lets call it one a week) times but the length of time together (10 years) work out how much money I have been scrwed over (£2000) divided buy how may time I had sex and that’s how much it cost me each time. So here it goes

Sex X Length = 520

2000/ 520 = £3.85 per lay!

Now that’s a barging in anybody’s book

Thanks mate!

Ok so now I have more time for you all, so Monday was a long day but fun, a lot of fun! Still have the hassle of travailing which can be crap when you fancy a few drinks or the fact it takes me 50 mins to get home but lets all remember, Short Amount of Time.

The house situation get better, been on to the estate agent today and the survey has been paid for and should be end of this week or beginning of next week but as you may now know im calling them tomorrow to get it for the end of this week, they told me to speed things up I have to get on to everyone and I told them buy then end of this sale they wont like me any more! If it sells my house so be it.

So I got hair dryer! This would be the first hair dryer I have ever owned, as far back as I can remember my hair has never been that long, but over the last few years it would get to a cretin length and I would want to let it grow but after a few weeks it would just annoy me and I would end up getting it cut. Well recently I think I have got the energy or passion to let it get longer than I have ever had it but I did bump in to a problem! That would be drying the dam thing so I got a hair dryer! Got it of ebay and didn’t really pay much attention to all the ‘extras’ as long as hot air comes out one end and its easier to use that the electric heater I used to use I would be happy. So it came yesterday, I got a hair dryer, comb, brush, diffuser!, and 3 curling things! What Im I going to do with curling things? Well im going to try and use them some how just to see what I can come up with.

As for my night last night it was fantastic, got to meet some new people and some people I had only meet briefly before and it went well, ended up in a beer garden (my favourite one) and I got to have the ‘designated driver’ one pint before I hit Coke! This dose annoy me sometimes and please don’t think I have a drink problem but when people are drinking and having fun to be able to only have one drink for me can be crap. But I didn’t let this get me down and powered through the crap feeling to have fun and I did have fun. I ended back at you know who’s house, well her room! (I remember when I used to have a room!) and ended up sneaking out of her house in the wee hours. I don’t really want to go in to much detail and not the type of detail you may be thinking of but lets just say I couldn’t stop smiling until I had to go.

Boo Hoo! I think so! pitty the fool!

Enjoy the day people

Must sleep!

Cant stop for long, it been a long day, up at 7:15am, to work till 4pm then the rest of the night in Liverpool having an excellent night! Would you expect anything less? But not 2:38am has rolled along and my lack of food and sleep has hit me and now I must rest! But be assured if time will allow me I will be back to enlighten you on why such a long day could have been so good.
