Last night was pretty cool having the run of the Next superstore and £125 of someone elses money to spend on me :) but there were a couple of downsides too.
The meal I opted for, yes my fault, was mediocre at best. The soup was the one flavor in the world that I hate, lentil, the Burger was alright although nothing to write home about and the desert was nice but much much too sugary.
Then we a little ceremony where everyone was called up one by one and given a certificate and their vouchers, I wasn't called up and neither was another chap. Luckily for us the hosts had 2 sets of spare vouchers as two of the people hadn't turned up for the event so we got vouchers and lots of apologies.
Then we went to Next, where we were photographed spending our vouchers and it was horrible, I dislike shopping at the best of times which is why I do most of it online however finding something that I liked was hard, finding that something in my size was near impossible. I got 1 shirt/jumper combo, a new manbag, some socks and some aftershave. I still have £45 left on my card to spend but I will have to work myself up to going back in there.
The night was OK and I am really glad of the recognition, it's just not the sort of night out I would have planned or that I would recommend to anyone who doesn't like shopping. That being said it is one more thing I can say I have done. "Gone shopping in a store after closing time"
As for the blood portion of this post, it's just another moan about the nurse this morning at the dr's. Not only was she late for my appointment by 15 minutes but then she stuck me with the needle, missed the vein so pulled it out and tried again, and again, and again and then she hit it. I felt like a human pin cushion afterwards and was glad to get out of there.
I am a little apprehensive about the results as a positive result means I have to go on Thyroid medication and a negative one means more tests. Woe is me.
Anyway, going to get back to work and will post later, I am off to the cinema tonight which should be fun.
