My life is so exciting!!

I can't believe how long it's been since I last posted a blog... time sees to fly by.  Well, as per usual I've been to Portsmouth and back a couple of times to see Ria and the last time I went down there which was last week we went out clubbing Thursday evening and Friday we went to the cinema to watch Vantage Point; good movie.  It's getting harder to leave everytime we spend time with each other but it's not for long.  Also, Ria jacked in her job last week so we're hoping to see each other every other weekend as I'll soon be working and she'll be concentrating on the last two months of uni.

I've also been going to the gym regularly but still feel like I'm piling on the pounds round 'ma belly' and when I start work I'm hoping to have some energy left over to go after work.

But let's move on because that is pretty depressing... oh yeah kitty decided to have a fight with some animal the other night and came home feeling sorry for himself and then later his face swelled up so yesterday I had to take him to the vets in the pet carrier (what a nightmare that was) and on the way there he decided to poop in it and stunk out my car and then the vets waiting room - needless to say I was pretty embarressed coz it really did 'hum!'  He had to have a couple of shots and he's gotta have a pill twice a day (that'll be fun) and he goes back for a check-up tomorrow evening...poor boy!

I had a nice meal last night with Cathy and Tracey, Tracey cooked a mean spag bol and also we had a good old natter about anything and everything.  I'm not entirely sure when our next date will be but hopefully it'll be sooner rather than later.

But anyway, moving on... I had a busy birthday (Tuesday) where I had to get up reeeally early to put my motorbike into the garage for it to be checked over, luckily for me nothing was wrong with it so I only had to pay for the chain to be tightened - yes I know I could probably tighten it myself (I used to years ago) but in my old age I've kinda got lazy...ok so I've always been lazy but that's me, right?!  Then, I went to the gym...yes the gym on my birthday and then later that day I had to make an appearance at the jobcentre to sign on and I can actually say that I was being honest as I've really been looking for a job!  Afterwards, I picked Ria up from the local train station and we came home and I got to open my card and present from her... I got a really sweet 'To My Girlfriend' card along with a new 'Animal' wallet (not a purse! hee hee) and a pair of spiderman boxer-shorts (they never do comic book heroes etc for women's underwear) and a creme egg of course. 

I also opened my other birthday cards from my family at the same time (I waited all day long) and received some well-needed cash and I was thinking I might put it towards a service for my car but then thought it was way too boring so I'm thinking more of buying a new suit as I'm in desperate need of one!  But geeze... I'm having such a hard time finding a decent suit to fit me coz I'm quite broad shouldered but around my waist I'm up to one or two sizes smaller so it's a right pain in the butt!

But getting back to my birthday celebrations we (me, Ria, mum, dad, Sara, Laura and Toby) went out to Chiquito's and stuffed ourselves silly - rather yummy! 

Wednesday arrived and as it was such a nice day I asked if Ria wanted to have a ride on the back of my motorbike, so I took her for a little ride up and down the motorway to see if she liked it...needless to say she did!  Unfortunately, my leathers were a little too big for her and she ended up looking like michelin man, bless her!
