Basically nothing happens

Hello to all my (probably not so much now) avid followers.  I know it is getting longer and longer between posts.  But basically nothing really happens in my life that is worth talking.  Sure I can keep writing, went to work, work was rubbish/good/frustrating etc, but there is only so often you can write the same thing.  Or tell you about hockey (We lost our last game) and this Saturday's game was frozen off.  Plus Call of Duty: Black Ops has provided quite a large distraction

Anyway, what that rambling lack off cohesion is mounting to is this.  I have come to the realisation that life, as I have stated in my blog title, is inherently boring.  Therefore trying to write about it on a regular basis is actually difficult.  I know my big sis doesn't, but she has 2 ankle biters that provide her with plenty of subject matter on which to enthuse.  Or my big bro who is currently gallivanting off round the world, and therefore has plenty of adventure to regale us with whenever he writes his blog.  I often wonder if other people feel like this (although seeing as the only people that read this blog are my bro and sis I am not sure if I will ever find out).  And I am sure many people would happily have 'dull' life.  But for me I would prefer life to be little more exciting.

Although having said all that, life has been a little more exciting recently.  Last week I managed to get out on the road for a few days and visit some of our customer in the south west.  Ended up costing me a fortune as I cam back with a case of cider, some cheese and few new items of clothing (there was surf shop outlet shop, everything was very cheap).

Anyway, think I will leave it there.  I was planning on watching the rest of the football.  But see as United are currently 2-0 down.  I might just go and have a shower then return to playing Black Ops.

Love to you all.

Quick post.

Right, what has happened over the last few days.  Good weekend.  We won at hockey (though we really didn't deserve to).  I even managed to score a goal (quite a good one at that), my first of the season.

Saturday night was spent getting exceedingly drunk, watching the boxing, and playing poker.  It was a great night.  I even managed to give my for house mate, Fish, a black eye whilst do the normal drunken male pastime of play fighting (that at least should please my sister).

Sunday was supposed to be spent recovering.  However, I ended playing a game of mixed hockey.  That will teach me to not reply to a text message.  Well at least I managed to sweat most of the alcohol out of my system, and I even managed to score again.

Anyway, the last two days have just been work, and then spending the evening playing Call of Duty Black Ops,  Rex has become of bit of an Xbox widow of late.  I think I may need to join Xbox anonymous.  In fact as soon as I have finished writing this post I will be going straight back to it.

Which is about now,  don't really have a lot else to tell you.  Back to my boring life, this week.  Thankfully.

Until next time.

Always on schedule, but never on time

Right, finally have found the time to sit and right this blog.  Basically last week was pretty rubbish and didn't fancy sharing the dark crevices of my somewhat broken mind with the normal humans being of this world, and course any other that my be out there (it is a probability after all).  Anyway basically they have restructured my team at work, and in the process of created some leader roles to carry out along with our regular activities.  I applied for the team leader role and lost out to somebody who spends more time on Facebook than she does working.  So I was a little bit upset by this.  Anyway, so now I am going to start looking for a new job.  So that was the story of last week.

Won hockey at the last weekend was, which was good.  Nothing much else to say about that.

This week has flown by, luckily managed to get out of the office for a couple of days.  I spent last night in leads.  All I will say is, its grim up north (well at least the weather was).  But it meant I got to 'work' from home this afternoon.  Which basically consisted, various instant message conversation with colleagues and making a few phone calls.

Anyway, am going to go now, and start using Facebook again, so just in case another team leader role comes up I will then be fully trained.

Laters one and all, I will try not to leave it so long until me next post.

Bad weeks and busy times!

Right, so I haven't been on recently.  Basically I had pretty crap week last week.  Some issues at work.  Which I unfortunately I left late today, so I still can't tell you tell all about it, as I have to go and get ready for hockey training.  Anyway, I am staying in leads on my own tomorrow night so should have plenty of time to tell you all about.

Until then, stay safe.

I have been very lazy!

Sorry to my 3 avid followers.  Have been fairly lazy over the last few days, and have failed to add to my blog.  Also been quite busy.

Not a lot has happened since I last blogged.  Usual mundanities of work. Had a good weekend.  We won
8-3.  Had good night out with the missus and a few of people from hockey.  Then played golf on Sunday and played quite well again.  Which is good.  And a very funny thing happened, one of the chaps was playing a shot out of the bunker, and he shanked it out and hit one of the other chaps flush on the leg.  We all then showed him the requisite sympathy, and fell about laughing.  It made taking my putt very difficult.

Seeing as not a lot exciting happens in my life, I might as well tell you about something else that was quite funny.  Also the very same chap, We like playing pranks on him as work.  So, over the last few weeks every time he was in a meeting I would tape one his highlighters (he had 7) to the underside of his desk.  So we managed to get four under there before he said anything.  At which point we all claimed to know nothing about it.  So I then stuck another highlighter under his desk.  I was hoping this would carry on for while yet, unfortunately somebody crumbled like a fine cheddar, and told him what was happening on Friday after I had left work. Most disappointing.  So I came in today to find my desk somewhat rearranged.

Anyway, I will leave it there for today.  I will try to keep you informed of any other pranks I pull.  Sorry Bex, no inspirational tv quote again as it is taken so long to write this post.  Hopefully it has at least made you chuckle.  I promise you a new quote in my next post.

Love to one an all,
Dan
