I'm sorry, I can't afford a Ferrari, but that don't mean I can't get you there

Hi :)


My birthday tea with my family yesterday was lovely.  My bf's family also came.  Both families get on really well which is really nice.  My ex's family were kinda weirdos.  I got some lovely presents and also some money.  Even though it wasn't my actual birthday, I couldn't help but open my presents!  I will still have some to open on my actual birthday tomorrow though :) bf has kept his back, and I got one from my friend Steven tonight.  I will get presents from my friends late, as they are coming through to Edinburgh on the 15th for a late birthday lunch! :)


Bf stayed over with me at my parent's last night.  After the birthday tea we went for a walk together in the dark pouring rain (!) and then decided we would go for a sit-down Indian meal, yum yum.  At the end of the meal we were given a shot each.  I had Apple Sourz, bf had Cherry Sourz.  Weird to be given them randomly after an Indian meal but nice.


Today I gathered all my stuff together and my Nana & her husband gave me & bf a lift back to Edinburgh.  I needed a lift from Edinburgh with all the presents I had for other people before Christmas, and then it was the same on the way back with all the presents I had received!!  Bf hasn't been feeling too well so he just chilled out when we got back but I started to try and put away some of my presents and and stuff I bought myself in the sales.


Tonight me & my friend Steve went to the cinema to see The King's Speech starring Colin Firth!  I wasn't that interested in the film but Steven asked me last week to go.  He is really in to the royal family and so was really excited.  I don't really like them but do find them & their history kinda interesting.  Anyway the film was great!  Colin Firth is amazing in it, and so is the guy that plays his speech therapist, not sure of his name.  Steven picked me up and dropped me off home after it, and gave me my present!  Will be opening that tomorrow.


Well it looks like I will be having a nice birthday tomorrow :) bf has told me that he will be getting up to go and get us McDonald's breakfasts in the morning so I can eat it lying in bed, then we will be going to view a flat, then we will be going for a birthday lunch which I think I have decided will be at the Hard Rock Cafe, then we will be viewing another flat later, and then after that he will give me his own wee birthday tea :) can't wait! :) <3 xx

I wait underneath the covers all night beside you

I'm in a bit of a better mood than the last time I wrote!  I am still dreading the pictures of the Christmas party going on Facebook but oh well!


Me & bf have decided we are moving :) we're staying in Edinburgh but want to get away from the flat we're in just now, our neighbours are just a nightmare.  The latest escapade, was last night.  Our very annoying upstairs neighbour, started playing his music really loud at the back of 5pm, and it went on til about half 7 when I went up and chapped his door.  I chapped it 2 or 3 times and he didn't answer, but I know he was in.  Over the next hour maybe, I had chapped his door about 6 times and buzzed his buzzer.  The last time I chapped his door (really hard) he was still not answering, but he turned the music off and started to creep about, making his footsteps quieter than usual.  Weirdo.  Anyway, after that I decided I wanted to move and bf agreed.  We looked at lots of flats today and we've got a viewing on Thursday.  I love the flat and it's location, but our noisy annoying neighbours are stopping us from enjoying it.  Quite excited about moving :)


My mum has got me this watch for Christmas :)
I can't wait to get it!  It took me forever to choose between the gold or silver but I eventually plumped for silver.  On the gold one, the characters were gold, which was lovely and really classy looking, but as you can see on the silver, the characters are rainbow coloured, and in the end I thought that was more "me".


I think I know what bf has got me for Christmas.  I wish I didn't, I don't like the surprise to be ruined.  I have only myself to blame!  I keep asking and asking but I don't really mean it.  Well I do at the time but deep down I don't really want to know.  Anyway, all signs point towards a trip to London, which is brilliant :) I will have to practice my surprised face for Christmas day!


I have a day & a half left of work before I finish til Christmas :) and I can't wait!  My Nana is coming to pick us up and take us home with all the presents on Thursday :)

This must be the place

Hi, happy Saturday :)


I hope you've had a good week, mine's been pretty good.


I had a training course Monday & Tuesday, which was alright, not the best course I've been on but it was kinda fun and I met some nice people.  Aaaaand some "interesting" people.  I got particularly well with this one guy, and I noticed the other day that we are on another course together in November! :)


Back to work on Wednesday.  It was ok, then Thursday was really busy.  Yesterday was ok at work but I had to stay kinda late.  I got my mid-year review as well.  I got a good mark but I really hate reviews.  They make me all nervous.  I just hate the idea of sitting in a room while someone tells you how good or bad you are.  I just want to get on with my work.


Last night I went to a friend's flat for a while for a little drink then I just came home.  It wasn't a late one.
Boyfriend has been very cute this week :) <3 he phoned me from work on Thursday evening saying he was leaving to go to the shop to buy something for dinner and I said I would meet him and go the walk with him.  So I met him and he said he wanted to go to Tesco, but he said not the usual Tesco we go to, he wanted to go to "the other one, up the hill".  "Is there another one up there?" I asked.  "Yes." he said.  So I said ok and we started walking.  He stopped outside a nice restaurant and said "There's Tesco there!"  He was actually surprising me by taking me out for dinner :) awwwww!  Luckily I hadn't thought "Oh, we're only going to Tesco" and dressed like a tramp ha ha, I actually looked ok to be in the restaurant :)


Then, we were in bed the other night and just before midnight, he got up and said "Oh, I just have to go and switch my computer off, I've been downloading anti-virus stuff".  He was away for quite a while but I wasn't bothered, I ended up falling asleep!  But he lied!  It was nothing to do with anti-virus stuff, guess what he was doing?  Booking tickets for us to go and see Harry Potter on the day it's released!  He doesn't even like Harry Potter he just knows how much I do!  So sweet! :)


Staying in tonight and watching the X Factor, no plans for tomorrow so far :) xx
