did i really...

... say it could only get better??? you did? you didn't, did you? well, yes i did. little did i know that i was gonna have another week from hell!

7. my orthopaedist had a serious chat with me the other day. the bottomline was: i'm gonna have to have another operation done. not the right foot this time, no. it's my left hip that needs surgery. it'd be funny if it wasn't so fucked up!

8. my powerbook is dead, well maybe just sick but it seemed pretty dead to me. i took it to an apple store to find out if it can be fixed and if i can afford it, which i can't but what are parents for, hey?

9. i had to send back my new mobile because it's already fucked.

10. i got caught by a speed camera. fuck!

11. bending over is a bitch! coz my back is still hurting from this monster wave that broke over me at the end of my holiday on Gomera. yep! real drama!!! real pain!

there's still a few november days left. luckily i'm not the only one who's having a shit time right now!

this year's worst month award...

... GOES TO:

november. this month is not even half done and it's already quite clear. the decision was easy:

1. mom is in hospital suffering from an acute loss of hearing. she's already been operated on and may go home tomorrow hopefully.

2. i've already spent too much money this month on presents... duh!

3. work is still a challenge, sometimes in the good sense, right now in the bad sense. don't know why people have to make it so difficult for their employees...

4. had a couple of doctor's appointments but instead of treating their patients doctors nowadays seem to take pleasure in making people wait by chatting to colleagues and then calling people in, whose turn was AFTER me!!! ARRRRGH!

5. it's bloody cold already, which means that this year's winter will be horrible

6. my way to work is being complicated by construction work on my line

it can only get better, hey!
