    I have been far to quiet on here as of late!

    Great form still happening.

    Girlfriend was over for the first time from the UK last week and things could not have gone better, had an absolute blast together.
    Did everything from Ice Skating, pigging out at Nandos to taking her to see the sights around Cork.
    I may have kinda showed off the place quite a lot.

    And I should be heading over to see her in a few weeks, hopefully Feb 15th to have a late Valentines together. Pretty much completely in love.

    One downside, I somehow managed to pull a muscle in my leg (yes, it's one of the groin muscles) last night and been virtually unable to walk properly all day.

    So, about that pulled groin muscle :)

    Which muscle exactly, and when did your gf leave? :pac:



    Btw, my form is excellent, start my boardsdeals dance lesions next week :)

    Love that place. Funnily enough, it's because of Nandos that we really got to talking and planned on even meeting eachother :pac:

    I knew one of ye would say that haha!
    Unfortunately it's not an injury to brag about, she left last Friday. I just slept badly last night and did some bad stretching when I got up didn't help it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,166 ✭✭✭Stereomaniac


    Perhaps your body was being exercised in ways that it wasn't used to for the first time in a while? ;) Haven't been in Nando's in years. Didn't eat chicken in it when I went, strangely. I am in alright form, looking forward to the weekend. Anxious during the day today.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,821 ✭✭✭18AD

    Doesn't sound like much of a deal. Stay safe, dude! :pac:

    What's Nandos?

    Today was nearly perfect.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,478 ✭✭✭✭cson


    Nando's is a brand of spicy chicken eatery iirc. I recall having it once in Dundrum. Didn't really see what all the fuss was about but then again I'm not into my spices. :pac:

    Assume I have year-round version of Summer :rolleyes: Hayfever, as it seems like I have the flu, only give-away is that for the whole day long, it feels like I strangely have something stuck in my eye lol and it ain't budging with no amount of rubbing my face lol! :eek: I feel like I have this constant force to want to keep my eye closed all frickin' day long. :( Didn't occur to me till after 6pm that it might be Hayfever-related. Have to wait till tomorrow now or maybe even Monday to get some bloody Eye-drops ..... Boo-hoo! :( ;( Have to go through the whole night now feeling like there's something in my eye and I can't rub it!! Writing this I reckon it must be bloody Hayfever I have as I'd say Eyedrops would rectify it I'd say, alas I'm not going anywhere now to get them. :-/

    I was to go out earlier but wouldn't chance driving with this constant squinting so much!! At least the day is over now though but it's gonna be a long night me thinks! I guess it does make me appreciative though to have my sight and be able to see. Muchos kudos to those who don't and the admirable way they live with it and get on with their lives without being able to see.

    Yeah. I'm in a house with 4 of my classmates and they won't stop asking me stupid questions. I know some of them haven't lived away from home before, but asking someone how to turn on the electric shower or how to boil a potato is a bit much. Esp. when you're trying to relax after work.

    Just the ****tiness of having to work on what's supposed to be my day off and missing all the celebrations with my family about the match. I don't wanna put people into a depression now so I won't go into too many details but just :(

    Do you get a day in lieu or extra pay? Focus on what you get in return :)

    I'm a bit up and down! Super bogged on under in college, stupid masters. But mid-term next week and going on a ski trip :D

    Happy cause its Valentines day, sad cause I can't be with my Valentine. Second one together, maybe next year we will actually get to see each other!

    Day in lieu and I demanded it was a Saturday that I had requested already! Ya I suppose it's not too bad. It all just got to me last night as it's my cousin's anniversary today and he would have been playing if he was still alive.

    In the space of 2 weeks, 2 separate guys have decided it's ok to sit on the bench directly behind my ass when I'm trying to squat. Like just SITTING there, not even lifting, just passing the time of day!

    It's kind of off-putting, but not exactly sure how to say 'umm, can you not sit staring at my ass please' without it sounding like I think they're sitting staring at my ass. In fairness, maybe they're just resting, but like it's a big gym...!:mad:

    See now that would be the logical thing to do....

    I'll see if it happens again.

    I hate lads like that who just sit there doing nothing in the gym and prevent people from using those areas. I mean fair enough if you're recovering between sets and taking a quick breather. Tell them to move if you're uncomfortable with it, you're probably doing someone else a favour as well :)

    TBH most of the guys in the gym I goto are too busy admiring themselves in the mirror to take much notice of the girls.

    If it was me sitting behind you the chances are I am close to a heart attack after doing a run on the treadmill and don't have my contacts in anyway so your ass looks the same as a 70 year old mans to my blurry vision :D

    Nope, just sitting there chilling, not doing owt! Also, my ass ain't much to look at - yet..hence all the squatting :D

    Not to be an hypocrite, as I do a fair amount of the oul perving myself like..

    ....but from a distance!! (I'm a pro :cool:)

    It's been a super stressful week, I had to put my dog Kya down on Saturday.... Then I've been house hunting for the last couple of weeks. I finally found a place today, so things are starting to look up.

    Sorry to hear about your pooch miss.

    Just heard my friends Dad passed away this morning.I went to college with him and met him for a few beers Saturday night.Simply put,one of the nicest,most good natured people you would ever have the pleasure to meet.Im gutted for him and cant even bring myself to ring him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,646 ✭✭✭✭Sauve


    There's no need to ring. When someone close has died people hone in on immediate family, not to sound insensitive, but right now your phonecall, while appreciated, will not be necessary.
    He'll have so much to organise and get done over the next few days, wait until you see him to speak to him. It'll mean a lot more then.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,677 ✭✭✭staker


    I know I'd appreciate a call from my friend if it was my dad:(
    Sometimes it's better to talk to people outside the family in situations like this just avoid the "expected" talk. He could be under pressure trying to cope with everything in the home and with relatives .
    Not picking holes Sauve but just a quick "Jeez man,you ok?, I'm not gonna hold you but if you're stuck for anything, anytime ring me...I'll see you soon either way",just to give him the option would be my inclination.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,925 ✭✭✭Otis Driftwood


    I think I will leave it for tonight and give him a call tomorrow.I really suck at this type of thing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,646 ✭✭✭✭Sauve

    Don't think like that. He'll appreciate the fact that you made the effort and letting him know that you're there for him. What words you say won't matter. At all.

    Just to throw it in too - from personal experience when going through a rough experience - I've always appreciated the people that are still keeping in touch a few weeks/months down the road. When the dust settles and all is over and done with - it's the people who are still around then that mean the most.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,698 ✭✭✭✭Princess Peach


    I think I will leave it for tonight and give him a call tomorrow.I really suck at this type of thing.

    The thing is everybody sucks at this because there is nothing you can really say to make it better. But I think he will appreciate the call anyway to let him know you are thinking of him. So don't worry about what to say, just the call is enough really.

    Hope you feel better :)

    There is no-one in the world who is good at this type of thing. I know I always appreciated someone calling and saying something like "I know nothing I can say will make anything better for you but I just want you to know I'm here if you need to chat. " and "I'm thinking of you, if you need anything at all just let me know"

    Job interview this Wednesday - well, internship interview. I'm hoping to move into marketing/advertising and this is one in Online Marketing, so will use this as a stepping stone. Absolutely terrified, though.
