Oh how I hate shopping. So very much. Well, usually I love it but Grocery Shopping Is Hell. Whenever a bank holiday approaches people go into a panic as though we may not live to see the day after it.
So there. Nothing really interesting has been going on in my life of late. I got my annual bonus from work yesterday. Last year when I was Part Time I got just under £200, which might not sound much but it was enough for me. So this year, I am now working there Full TIme, so naturally assumed that it would be more. It goes by how much over-time you've done in the past financial year, and I did SO much over-time last year I always came home knackered. And my reward this year? £75. £75!!! I couldn't believe it. So we're all pretty pissed off at work about that. All incentive to work hard and help the company have gone out the window, and a-job hunting I shall go.
That's it for now. Hope you're all ok xx xx
Oh, and here's a little bit of shameless West Side Story quoting for my dear friend Pinky Lady

| | Femme Fatale - Velvet Underground | ] | On the 30th March (last Thursday) was my 21st birthday. I knew my boyfriend Steve had planned something London related but I didn't know exactly what it was. We got to our hotel in Kensington at around 2pm and spent the afternoon sightseeing (incidentally I nearly pooed myslef with excitement when we saw Stephen Fry crossing the road in Soho). At around 7pm we headed towards Tottenham Court Road to see We Will Rock You !!! This was my surprise present and I was so happy. I've been wanting to see this for years, being a huge Queen fan. I don't want to go into huge amounts of detail but it'd be fair to say that it was bloody amazing. The story is both funny and moving, and the way in which the Queen songs are incoprporated into the story are just brilliant. I'd recommend it to anyone, Queen fan or not. It is not at all a story of Queen or Freddie Mercury's life; it's basically a dig at all the wannabes who think they are musicians just because they jig along to a basic backing track without any knowledge of instruments or talent. The highlight was at the end when we all got to our feet and sang We Will Rock You and Bohemian Rhapsody along with the cast.

| To Mrs Penguin |
[Mar. 24th, 2006|01:57 pm] |
Please don't leave. Please don't harm. Please be happy.
You have an amazing boyfriend who is as fantasti, funny and lovely as you are. He makes you as happy as you make him. He loves you unconditionally, and after only 10 months wants to be Mr. Penguin and have babies!
You have a job which, admittedly, isn't the greatest, but it pays regular money and gets you into a routine where you can't think about Other Stuff. Please don't leave - wherever you go you will get Arrogant Liars (Kyle), Know-It-Alls (Jan), and Childish Squabblers (Jenny/Racheal).
I take great comfort in the fact that you consider me a friend, who I know I can trust and talk to, and who won't judge me as you've been where I've been. I want to be a great friend to you too, and don't want you to feel ashamed or shy about talking through your feelings, worries and anxieties.
Don't give up on yourself. Take what the Twats at work say with a pinch of salt and a laugh, knowing that they obviously haven't got everything you have - love, support and friendship.
Love, me x x x x |

Bless you wherever you are Windswept child on a shooting star Restless Spirits depart Still we're deep in each other's hearts
Some people say it's over Now that we spread our wings But we know better darling The hollow ring is only last year's echo
Bless you whoever you are Holding her now Be warm and kind hearted And remember though love is strange Now and forever our love will remain

Hello beautiful ones
You can call off the search team and breathe that sigh of relief because yes, I am back. I know you've all gone to bed each night asking yourself "Where's that Jaynie got to?". Well ask no more for I return!
Hi.
How goes it! I've been reading a couple of times a week and keeping up to date with all the goings on. It really sucks though not having internet access to hand whenever you need it. Now I can only manage to get online when I go to the mother's. Which is where I am now.
So basically I'd just like to express how PISSED I am by the fact that yet again I didn't go to Liverpool Beatle week. 24/7 Beatle bands,exhibitions, memorabilia, etc, and I've missed it. One day though, one day.
So since Xmas when I last updated:
Steve (the boyf) and I had to move out of our flat cos the dude that leased it to us basically wanted to use the spare room to grow a massive crop of weed! And we didn't want that.
Moved to this fucking disgusting place where we had either a heroin addict or pschizophrenic (we can't decide which) living opposite. Our car was also broken into within about a month.
I tried magic mushrooms. Whilst listening to Pink Floyd. I just wanted to enjoy it but frankly I didn't really get much out of it. It very much mongs you out and you just stare at stuff, like anything with an elaborate pattern such as carpets or curtains. And I noticed my legs would not stop jiggling. After a while you just want to feel normal but you have to wait for it to naturally leave your system. I suppose if we'd been in the right situation i.e. a festival or summat they would've had a better effect, but we were just sitting indoors.
Steve & I been together about 15 months now. I do love him so.
We're living nearer to where we work and I've got a hamster called Frank (hamsters r crap, don't get one), and I acquired a guinea pig from my friend Emma (</a></a> mrsemmielou ) he is fab! Officially named Baldrick. Although he did pee on the sofa last night so that was a minor annoyance.
Already my mind is blank so talk to you soon!

Hey folks
Well, Christmas Eve, eh? Wasn't expecting that! I SO don't feel festive. At all.
Like my new user icon? It's taken from this pic. About a month or so ago I went to a wedding fair with my boyfriend Steve's mum and twin sister, Carla. She's getting married in June 2005 so wanted some hints n stuff for what she can do. There was a dude that u could hire for your wedding reception who sat and did caricatures of the guests. He was about £250 to hire for only 4 hours! Nice work if u can get it tho I suppose. Shame I can't draw for shit.
Right here comes the boyfriend bit. Today is our 6 month anniversary, which is kinda cool that it fell on Christmas Eve. He's at home at the mo as hes just got in from work. He had to help his dad, who owns a milk round, to deliver shit loads of milk and get the money for it. The customers always leave gifts for the milkmen so Steve came home with a nice bottle of wine & some mince pies. God bless the dairy industry. Going over to his parents for Christmas day too. I know that he's got me a video mobile phone, I guessed it was a mobile but managed to get out of him what type when he was drunk. Heh.
Nothing else really exciting to report, just plodding on with life. I tell you one thing though, living on your own without the financial support of your parents is tough! But we get by bless us

Word.
Ah it is a happy life. It's so weird to think that in January/February/March/April I was Depressed and self harming. And in July/August/September (and hopefully beyond) I am happier than perhaps I've ever been. Steve, my boyfriend of 2 months and 4 days, told me he loved me t'other day, and I had a little cry. As self-pitying as it sounds, I can't believe someone as beautiful and wonderful as him loves lil old me. And I of course love him too, more than I ever thought it possible to love someone. The living together thing is going great.
Not really much else to report I'm afraid. TTFN. x x |

I won't be updating this wee poppet of a journal as much as i'd like (not that I did it that much anyway), as I have moved out! I now reside with my beautiful boyfriend Steve. Though it's been only 6 weeks, we both feel ready to be together all the time. Just have to see how it goes. |

I really should update this more often, 'cos now I've gotta try & remember everything in my mundane life that's happened.
LOVE: I've had sex I've had sex I've had sex I've had sex I've had sex! So yeh, I've had sex. And what jolly fun it is too! Why the hell did I wait til now? It's the most fun I've had probably ever. Rather stupidly we didn't practice it safely but the morning after pill came to the rescue. I'm going to the doc's tomorrow to go on the Pill. Been with Steve 4 weeks 3 days, and loving every second of it. He's Gorgeous, in every way.
WORK: Fuckin' 'ell I hate my job. I'm getting it in the neck from my mates, my boyfriend and my mum to find somewhere else, as they docked my hours where I am now. I am trying to find another job but there is nowhere right now. The only things I can find are temporary positions, to cover the school holidays. So poverty is the name of the game thus far.
So yeh, the two things seem to be the only things going on in my life right now.

Had a great night last night. I don't quite know what's happening to me, however. I've always been very anti-Essex, I hate everything it represents and contains. (Burberry, short skirts, gold earrings, Staffordshire bull terriers, etc etc). But of late I've been accepting that these are the surroundings I have to put up with until I can move away. Went out for dinner with Hazel and a couple of old school friends, Heidi & Charlie. Went to the Blue Boar in Billericay, then for dinner at Caffe Uno. I'm such a skin-flint, I'm shocked by the fact that it costs £8 just for a lasagne! And I didn't even eat all of it, it was so so rich. Steve, being the lovely boyfriend he is, offered to pick me up after the meal, even though he lives nowhere near Billericay, so when he arrived I took him back to the Boar for drinks. Managed to spend some time with him at t'bar, before everyone was coming over being nosey bitches. Bless 'em. I'm such a lightweight, and all I drank was crappy things like Bacardi Breezers and Reef's (the Essex girl in me is slowly being released).
We're going to see Shrek 2 tonight! |

So I eneded it with Kirk. I said something like "I'm sorry, I can't wait forever for you to not be 'busy'. I've met someone who can make time" or something like that, and he replied "Well, actually I was going to ring you at the weekend and say the same thing [what a coincidence]. Keep me updated on your new man, hope he treats you well". Dunno if he meant that. Nice gesture if he did.
So I'm meeting up with Steve in a wee while. It's going so well (even though I've know him a total of 6 days). Don't want to put a jinx on things.
Over and out. |

Met up with Hazel in town yesterday. Had coffees (makes me feel like a grown up, drinking cappucino in public), talked about life, love, the universe & everything. She had brought with her some houses & flats she'd seen that she'd quite liked. Then we went to Allders and went round sitting on every sofa and bed and armchair, trying to decide which would be suitable for our house. The saleswoman came over and she was telling us about different schemes n stuff, and I felt really grown up! heheh.
So yeh....we went to the pub afterwards for drinks & stood at the bar, and there were 3 builders @ a table, kept making comments n stuff. There was one though, he was really nice. He had quite dark features. Anyways, hazel went to the toilet & this other builder came over, he was so pissed. He asked for my number. Hazel came back out but sat at their table cos she thought I didnt want to be disturbed from being chatted up by some weasel faced drunken twat. I made my excuses and sat at the table to be with Hazel. The pissed guy was busy...being pissed, so i got talking to this other guy, who's called Steve, and who's 29. Anyways, it got to 11pm (How it got that late without us noticing I don't know) and Hazel had to go. By this time, Steve and I were doing the sitting close together, leaning on each other, touching legs thing. I walked Hazel to the taxi rank and saw her off, then came back to the pub. I sat back next to Steve, but noticed that some guy had joined them. Steve didn't know who he was. Anyway, this guy was shaking, and talking fast, and it was obvious he was high on something. The pissed guy who asked for my number came and sat between me and the Drugged Up guy. Drugged Up then produced a bag, and laid a menu on the chair. He emptied the bag, which I discovered to be cocaine, onto the menu. He seperated them into lines, and I've never been so scared in my entire life. I noticed two bouncers at the bar, trying to look like they weren't looking in our direction. I said to Steve "Look, I don't want to be here anymore. I don't want to be part of this." He hugged me and pulled me really close to him and he said "Just stay and talk to me, they're nothing to do with us". I noticed one of the bouncers had come closer to our table, and Pissed Guy Who Asked For My Number leant over, about to do a line, when all of a sudden this bouncer grabbed him and dragged him across the table and chucked him outside. I was shaking, and Steve was comforting me and telling me to calm down, not to worry. We went outside at closing time and Pissed Guy was out there, begging for a lift. Steve was just telling him to fuck off. He offered me a lift, but I politely declined as he'd been drinking. He said he'd walk me home, even though it was like a half hour journey. We kissed, and it was really nice. Anyway, half hour later, we got to my road and I didnt want to go. He was like "Shit, I've left my van back in town......walk me back?" So back we went. We found his van, and all four tyres had been let down, and his front lights smashed. So bla bla bla......he AGAIN walked me back home, and we couldn't leave each other alone. We swapped numbers, I got home at 5am, had to be up at 8.
Anyway, Kirk texted me (at last!) yesterday, funnily enough when I was talking to Steve. He said he's just been so under pressure recently. He said his parents r going away again soon (hooray!) so we can get to spend some time together. But u see I have a predicament. Steve is now on The Scene, he is new, and keen, and lovely. Whereas Kirk never went away, yet he is not around, often busy. Yet I (hate to use the word) prefer him I think. Oh who knows.....You only live once. Unles you're Hindu. |

Well, the first entry in a new place. My old journal like_jolie held some pretty rough entries. Stuff happened that I overeacted to, and I upset people that I never intended to. So yeh. The end.
In other life-related news, Hazel & I have started to look for flats/houses. It's time to fly the nest. The only thing is, I need to find a regular job that has regular income. So a job hunting I shall go tomorrow! |
