Grump
I’m in a serious grump. I don’t know why which makes me even grumpier because I like to know why I’m grumpy when I’m grumpy.
We’re a bit broke at the moment. Maybe that’s part of it. Everything seems to happen at once money wise (car MOT, six birthdays in two months, Christmas, plumbing).
I’ve totally abandoned my fitness plan. DAMN IT!!! I have these spurts of fitness and I feel positive, then I just lose it somewhere. And the worst thing is, starting is the hardest part and I keep having to start over and over again! This is such textbook behaviour and still I can’t get myself out of it.
Yesterday I took the car out on my own properly for the first time. I drove the nine miles into Kelso to go to the supermarket. I was so scared! The annoying thing is, I did it all and I did it mostly really well, but all that sticks in my head is how I parked the car too far to one side in the car park space and I could hardly get out the door. Why can’t I concentrate on the good stuff?
I’m seriously grumpy about Royal Mail. I ordered a book about two weeks ago but I still haven’t received it. It has probably been lost because of the recent strikes.
I’m grumpy because Dawson’s Creek is the biggest pile of pap, yet I am utterly compelled to watch it. I am not a teenager, I don’t understand some of the words they say, I hate the way it’s written, it is so very morally ‘American’ and I have to sit with a sick bucket by my side when I watch it.
Well, I suppose I know why I’m grumpy now which makes me feel better. That and the custard slice I just scoffed down.

I feel EXACTLY the same way about “Dawson’s Creek.” I was a teenager when it was on, but I never watched it then. A couple years ago, I started watching reruns and I couldn’t stop. I would just sit on my bed and repeat the mantra “this is not a good show” over and over as I watched. Everything about it is unrealistic and nerve-grating, especially the dialogue. No one talks like that!
