blimey!

I don't know why talking to my broadband provider always reduces me to tears - probably because i rely so much on the link it affords me to my dearest ones. i spoke to them twice yesterday, totalling over an hour, and it included the news that if i do go for the change i think i need to go for, i will be without not just broadband but the phone and tv for two whole days. days that i would need to be here so they could disconnect and then come back to reconnect (*sigh*  surely they can see that sending one person on one visit is so much better for them and not just me??) So it wasn't the best of days. coupled with other scary topics like redundancy and divorce and stuff, it was a bit crappy.

there are always good bits in amongst the crappy bits tho, and I got to order the next in my fab fab series of books. 

Today needs to have much more work in it, but I'm working this eve as well as heading into Blackpool in a bit, so it'll all work out in the end - it always does :D

...

one of the many fab things about my job is the unexpected. I'd not do well in a predictable job. today saw me cleaning spilt curry powder from the insides of the box of "ingredients" we use in our "what's in breastmilk?" demo (every breastfeed is flavoured differently depending on what mums have eaten themselves). I had a bit of a dance at the same time as the radio was on :D

I've also been reading how most hugs last around 3 seconds, but for the oxytocin to take effect hugs need to last at least 20 secs. So next time my hug seems to last longer than socially acceptable, it's cos I care about your good health (and mine too, obviously).

PS, i've no idea how to take the effect off today's blog. hopefully normal service will resume tomorrow...
