I wouldn't mind ending up like that like my Nan, recognises most people, doesn't know she's sick, has fantastical nights out in her head. For her 90th the reality was we brought a cake to the home she's in where she's bed bound and can't speak great (but can eat cake for Ireland), she told us she went to Listowel for a night out with a guy she just met and got arrested for drunkenly dancing in the street.
My grandma was the same way. Every time I would call her to check in she would tell me about the lovely holiday she was on and the lovely view from her window of the mountains, or the beach depending on where she "was", when really she was practically blind and in a nursing home. After my grandfather passed away she was always convinced he was off on a mission, since he used to be in the military.0 -

And I was literally just about to suggest to boyfriend that we go to the pub for a few, invite some friends, and he got called into work
So there goes that plan.
your boyfriends job needs a punch in the balls, must be a right pain in the arse not being able to plan things or do stuff last minute, couldnt imagine being on call like that, I likes my free time0 -
Sorry to hear this *hugs*Just got some upsetting news about a family member. Don't want to post details as nobody really knows yet but it's the C word Hopefully everything will be ok, big shock to the system though.
I've had a horrible tension in my head all day, wish it would sod off, don't know what's caused it
Gonna go some exercise now, hopefully it'll help 0 -

Gah! Half way into the workout and I'm wrecked already and have horrible pains in my abdomen from the exercise!
I can't even do freaking push up's. I manage to lower myself to the ground and can't get back up using my arms to end up going onto my knees and getting up normally
Feels like I'll never get rid of this stupid freaking pot belly. I can't even manage some simple push up's. Crying over it ffs.
How can I not manage some simple push up's?! Feel like a twat! 0 -

Just read that the taller you are, the greater your risk of cancer. I'm pretty much screwed, I'm six foot!
Ever seen the Daily Mail list of things that give you cancer?
If they were right I'd be dead a million times over. :pac:

push ups take time, same as chinups and pullups, I could barely do one pullup when I started now I can do a few dozen before I tire out, more you do the better you get. I find it easier to do pushups on my knuckles rather than the flat of my palms. do whatevers comfortable0 -

Aww My bf won't go out
Where does your boyfriend work? He always seems to be gettin called in!
Emergency services.your boyfriends job needs a punch in the balls, must be a right pain in the arse not being able to plan things or do stuff last minute, couldnt imagine being on call like that, I likes my free time
Ha, I'm used to it now, but yep, we nearly broke up over it in the first year of it. Now I just get sick of explaining it to everyone, most of my friends get it at this stage but there were a lot of conversations consisting of me saying "Yes, on call every day", "no, it's not shift work", "yes, even on Christmas/Saturday nights/etc" 0 -

Oh, I just love Ikea!Also, assembled the gigantic shelves I got in IKEA, so I can take all my dvds out of boxes at last.
Did your shelves have a name? I got a bookcase and Ikea had christened it 'Billy Bookcase' so now Billy has all my books.
I'm CRAP at pushups (and all physical exercise..) but I have to do them on my knuckles because I have banjaxed wrists.. and gammy knees. I'm just in great shape generally. :cool:I find it easier to do pushups on my knuckles rather than the flat of my palms. do whatevers comfortable0 -

A lot of cancer studies are crap and I suppose a lot aren't. At least research is constantly happening every day.
If any of these studies eventually go towards finding a way of making this horrible horrible disease fcuk off, they'll be worth it.
Oh I agree completely! I just saw the article about the link and made a flippant comment about it, which maybe I shouldn't have done. 0 -

If it's published in the Lancet, it's not a load of crap. http://www.ox.ac.uk/media/news_stories/2011/110721_1.html
This is a cheap shot, but I'm gonna say it anyway
The Lancet published Andrew Wakefield's article in 1998 which suggested that autism was linked to a form of bowel disease and the MMR. It was subsequently retracted, and Wakefield has been struck off the medical register.
Journals publish a lot of good studies, and a lot of piss poor studies. The fact that something is published in a journal doesn't mean it's a good quality study, unfortunately. And often times studies (like this one) don't establish (or even attempt to establish) causation. So when the media get a hold of the press release, you get headlines and articles which mislead the general public into thinking a "link" equate to causation.
But I suppose it sells more papers than "but there's a lot more to it than that...." 0 -

Does he not have any set work hours at all? :eek: Or is it just a case of when you're called in, that's the only time you work?0 -
