PostHeaderIcon Rant-tastic

Bloody DHL are a bunch of morons. I sold my spare Izzard ticket through Get Me In and the buyer wanted it sent via DHL. Filled in all the DHL details on the Get Me In website, printed the tracking sheets out and got the tracking number sorted.

Collection day was yesterday…nothing

Called them this morning…oh we have no reference of your booking we’re going to do nothing. If you want it picked up today and delivered today it will be more money, if you want it delivered tomorrow it will be more money.

Sure, because it’s my account not Get Me In’s and i’ll just do that so they take it off my sale price…NOT

Now i’m waiting for the seller support team from get Me in to call me back to find out what is going to happen

I Need to sell this ticket, i need the money

FUCKHEADS

**UPDATE ~ Apparently DHL will be here before 1500 with a manual airway thing i need to fill in. We’ll see**

PostHeaderIcon On being broke

Today is pay day and you know what that means…yes that’s right endless totting up of the finances to work out how on earth to manage to live for the next month.

This month involves a trip to Hertfordshire to visit the father so that will cost me a tank of petrol at say £45

Ok, so paying all my bills and accounting for my £10 a week bus fare that leaves me with…oh lovely £9 a week for the next 4 weeks until pay day. Looks like i’m cutting food out of my diet for the next 4 weeks then.

That box of DVD’s will all HAVE to sell for a pretty good price i guess.

I know, it’s all my own fault for missing a regular payment when i was calculating a loan repayment i could afford but doing this for the next 4 months until i get some respite isn’t filling me with joy it has to be said.

So what else can i sell i wonder? No-one wants my books, they’re too popular and modern for book stores to buy. Once the DVD’s are gone can i legally sell all my CD’s because i have them electronically or do i have to hang on to them?

Damn, just remembered two more payments that have to come off that list…

sometimes i wish i was the type who could bury my head in the sand and pretend bills didn’t exist

Gah; will have to work something else out

PostHeaderIcon Connecting Friends

Recently I’ve been adding myself to more people’s connect, so hopefully you will want to add yourselves to mine too. It’s always on my sidebar with my Networked Blogs link and my Twitter button but here it is as a special post:




PostHeaderIcon I’m a girl, honest

This week on twitter i asked if i was the only girl in the world who doesn’t own certain things…and was told i was.

So here is a list of girly things i don’t do, and hopefully a list of girly things i do. How many can you tick off?

I don’t…own a hairdryer
I don’t…own straighteners/curling irons
I don’t…follow fashion
I don’t…wear foundation
I don’t…dress up for work
I don’t…understand celebrity culture

I do though…love heels
I do though…adore pretty summer dresses
I do though…wear mascara and concealer for work
I do though…umm, help, what else is considered girly…someone, anyone?

Oh and just to confound things

I love…tattoos
I love…technical thinking
I love…the internet
I love…other people’s love of girly things
