For whatever reason have this in my head.
Just thought you all should know.

Had all the LSO’s instruments through too
All that wheat?
Yeah we had all that. About ten lorries packed full of it.
Was an absolute bugger to get the dogs round.
Get to play Opening Ceremony bingo soon.
It consists of me shouting out every time something appears in the ceremony that we screened and searched at work.
We’ve had a lot of shit.
Can tell I’m an adult by my mom asking me if I wanted anything in particular and me respnding ‘The only thing I rly need is a new electric toothbrush and hairdryer’
Oh the days when I’d make a huge long list of fun stuff, where have you gone?
Officially no longer a teenager. WAAAAAH DON’T WANT TO GET OLDER I WANT TO STAY A DRUNK STUDENT FOREVER.

Work was shit today, team leader was being an annoying cunt all day making what could have been simple cases solved by common sense into protracted dramas, and night shift turned up an hour late, so I didn’t get home until quarter past nine. Leave as the sun is coming up and getting back when it is setting in the middle of summer is not fucking fun.
HOWEVER, I walked past Christopher Eccleston on the way home and I smiled at him and he smiled back and it cheered me up no end.
Having creamy tagliatelle with pork and stilton sausages for tea though, luv u food, never change.

Just had 3 12.5 hour days, 3 12.5 hour nights and was scheduled to have 3 days off. I finished at 7 this morning. Got an e-mail 3 hours ago telling me I’m working at 6am tomorrow. NOPE.
Scheduling think I’m working tonight at Hilton Park Lane.
My duty manager wants me in tomorrow morning at Chigwell.
COMMUNICATION!

apologies for the earths geography i will take u out when i move!
I haven’t gone out in so long :( I am going to be an unreasonable mess all september after i finish with g4s
Also sticking to my mantra of never doing anything for my birthday cus last night 4 people turned up out of about 30 invited el oh el.
It was ~wild~
The sheer incompetence of g4s never ceases to amaze me.
Even after being slated in the press and being told to get their shit together, they are still staggeringly awful.
I really, really wish I didn’t need the money, I am getting desperately tired of them now.
Finished for the week wo0o0o0.
Well I’m back on Sunday, but still TWO WHOLE DAYS OFF!
During which lots more sorting house stuff out (almost there now though!!!) and tomorrow i’m actually doing something for my upcoming birthday for the first time eva but because everyone sucks/isn’t in london atm it will probably have all the extravagance of a damp puddle but i’m making jello shots so if no-one else does turn up just more for me and David I suppose, awww yeahhh
The plastic horse has been beaten.
Today at work we had 7 illegal immigrants in the back of a lorry.
g4s are in the news getting slated.
Oh how I laughed/am laughing/will laugh.
Genuinely surprised it took this long though. I could have told you 2 months ago they wouldn’t be ready. I can could whistleblow a whole lot more too. ‘Safe and secure’, HA.
Oh well as long as I get paid at the end of it all I don’t really care what happens.
Off the m11, x-raying all the stuff lorries and vans are wanting to take into the olympics
Also the Italian team have brought their own pasta.
Seriously.
I was x-raying their shit, it came to one pallet and I thought ‘Hang on, that’s spaghetti’, and lo and behold I looked when it came off and it was.
Today we had a plastic horse at work, and they tried to fit it through the x-ray but it wouldn’t fit, so there it was just lying on its side on the rollers and it was a highly amusing sight okay.
LCD Soundsystem may record again
After a much-publicized breakup, LCD Soundsystem may reunite—if only for one track. Frontman James Murphy told The New York Times that the group’s been asked to cover a song for an upcoming movie. The director, who Murphy won’t name, asked the group personally, and everybody “seems to want to do” it.
oh
oh my god
Fuck just found out one of my lecturers this year died.
Fuck man, he was only 48
6 twelve hour shifts on the trot DONE!
Now to start unpacking shit from boxes and make this house a home.
Managed to get Sunday off too so now I can go to Pride tomorrow and drink to my hearts content, awwwwww yeahhhhh
The only positives about today are that these LOCOG guys think I’m quite good, and everyone down at heathrow thinks I’m an x-ray god or something. Oh and I got away early because they’re so quiet down there and so had no need of me after 5. Hence why I’m on here finally getting some internet time. wo0o0o0.
Also all the people down at the Heathrow MSF are fucking misogynist cunts.
The manager has a wife and was going round showing everyone these dirty pictures he’d been sent by someone or other with all the usual ‘phwoarrrr’
On the way from hotel distaster to the MSF there was this woman cyclist in front of us and he went ‘look at that fine tooshie’ . Basically anytime he made reference to a woman it was as a sexual object.
Also one of the forklift truck drivers told me ‘Whenever I go out with my girl I get really violent you know and I don’t when I’m with my mates’, and i was just thinking ‘No, no I don’t know’
Then again MSF1 where I usually am isn’t much better.
Horrible, horrible people everywhere.
Ultimate socially awkward penguin calamity moment today.
Due to a multitude of reasons, I ended up somewhere in the outskirts of heathrow, waiting for someone to pick me up and take me to a screening facility there, where they had no x-ray operator and so needed me (it was a fun first 15 minutes of work being told this), only to get there I had to hitch a lift with some of the night shift people going home to Slough from where I have been working, and yes anyway, there I was, and I really needed a piss, and didn’t know when I was going to be picked up. Now there was a hotel down the road, but, knowing what they’re like in central, i didn’t want to go in and get turned away for not being a customer, anyway I noticed this little opening in these big bushes, so I snuck in to relieve myself, only on my way out, I didn’t notice this emergency phone box thing, stood up too soon and whacked my head on it. Making a pretty big gash in my head. And so the blood started pouring. So I had to go to the hotel anyway looking like Carrie to receive first aid. And I had to tell them how i’d done it, and oh fuck that was embarrassing.
Yay for btopenzone. I can now get 10 minutes of internet each night before bed.
Three things about work:
1) I’m working with a load of Gurkhas, and bless them they’re lovely and relly hard working, but trying to communicate with them is a nightmare
2) Either i’m excellent at my job or others are shit, because in the time I cleared about 45 vehicles today, the guy in another lane only managed about 15.
3) I’ve now been asked to work friday to. So that’s six 12 hours shifts in one week. n o t f u n a t a l l i j u s t w a n t t o s l e e p p l e a s e l e t m e p l e a s e
I’m alive!
Just about
Working 12 hour shifts off the m11 is fucking tiring.
And when I get back, I have house moving stuff to do, so I can’t just relax.
The only me time I get is genuinely when I go to the toilet. It’s tragic.
Anyway this has been a ‘make the most of the internet’ post as we get chucked out our old place tomorrow, and our new one doesn’t have internet yet and won’t have until friday when I get a day off and am able to phone up o2.
Even on my day off I’ve already got a huge list of shit to do. This is why I don’t want a proper job when I’m older.
Ciao.
