I know it's been a while and I'm sorry, I can't catch up on everything because most of it, I've forgotten :P
I'm writing to you now from a hospital bed! I broke my leg (falling over) and they're keeping me in until they decide if they want to operate or not.. It's looking quite likely that they will! D:
The problem is the pointy bit of bone (the top half) that is broken and now rudely poking my ankle bone, if the swelling goes down and it moves away, all will be good, if not, then it'll need pinning and stuff.. So yeah, I'm in hospital because I'm a fool :P They had no idea which ward to put me in so I get my own room :D I told the nurses and doctors I want to be known as Tom and none of them have a problem with it :D So that's all good on that front!
All my friends have really pulled together over the last couple of days, from answering my crying plea at 11pm when I was lying outside my front door to carrying meup and down stairs, waiting hours on end in A&E, driving me back to the hospital, waiting again for hours, bringing me my favourite foods, and a teddy, and nuts magazine, and puzzle books, goin to my house and bringing me clothes and laptop, giving me money for the extortionate TV in here and most of all, giving me support and company :D (and much more I cant be arsed to mention)
My friends are AWESOME :D
I really appreciate it guys :D
It's the little things that I miss about having 2 functioning legs.. Like stability when brushing your teeth.. being able to pull your trousers up without resting your body weight through your head on a wall! LOL! If anyone was to watch me get dressed this morning! was a right sight.
My phone is completely fucked over, It's saying it's in airplane mode and no matter what I do, I cant turn that off! I've taken the battery out, restarted it, played with all the settings.. airplane mode wont go away.. plus my phone keeps restarting itself ever half hour or so, im just letting it now.. So for a bit, I'm phoneless but going to get the old festival phone out so at least I can ring and text! :D need to copy over numbers actually, might start writing them down now, not like I dont have enough time!
Trying to think of other things to say but my mind has gone blank.. No doubt I'll be on later, considering I have so much time to kill!
Hey, since last time I posted a fair bit has happened but a lot I can't talk about on the internet :/ Useful for blogging I know..
Anyway, I'll say what I can.. I imagine the party was good this weekend, many positive came out of it as far as I can tell :P Plus when all my friends are pissed at 5am and I'm at work, I don't mind so much all the random phone calls!
The door is still not fixed and tbh I don't think it will be in the foreseeable future, I haven't seen my boss yet and I'm avoiding her like the plague!
I went to the beach the yesterday, it was actually reall good, the weather was alright so got a bit of lying in the sun in :) then it pissed it down! So we retreated to the car but decided to run from the car into the sea for a quick swim anyway while it was raining. It was really nice and refreshing and spontaneous but my god was it cold!! The person I was with was in a 5mm steamer wetsuit and apparently she thought it "wasn't that bad" good for her! I was in shorts and a rash vest!! Trust me.. It WAS that bad :P
Very good day though anyway :)
Yesterday morning, I went to BBC Newcastle Radio and recorded some stuff about being trans that was broadcast today. Honestly it was so scary!! It was all for the run up to pride and get a bit more recognition out there but still.. Scary shit..
I really didn't know that was how my voice sounded.. I dont know how I thought my voice sounded but that wasn't it!!
I have no idea where to start so I appologise that this will be all jumbled up..
Ok, so sister's wedding.. Completely wasn't my intention but came out to most of my family then and everyone took it really well! Plus was a really good day :D All round good I would say! Was quite good as well for my parents to see other people take it so well :)
Came back to Newcastle to have my shifts changed and was covering someone else all week (why I've not been on here) and realised I miss people!! I was working surrounded by other people in normal 9-5hours on weekdays! I was even using my brain too.. So I've had enough with my normal job, I can't hack being alone for this long every day.. So I was looking for other jobs whilst at work on night shift (where I am now at the normal place) and then managed to do something that may well get me fired anyway! I accidentally smashed a door frame, and I know that sounds intentional but it was genuinely an accident!! So I need to find a way to explain that to my boss without getting a P45 shooting through the letter box! Although gives me a good reason to get my CV in order!!
Ok, so I'm sat here with a broken door, and part of the door frame has cut my hand.. and I realise I keep a screw driver with me! Bonus, fix the door frame, job done, noone will know.. But then I go and break my screw driver and in trying to fix my screw driver I need a screw driver.. but it is clearly broken. All in all today has been a bit of a disaster at work.
One of my best mates is having a house party tonight and a load of my friends are there. A few were saying I should just ring in sick and go to the party.. I really wish I had now!!But these things happen.. It was genuinely an accident and if they sack me for that.. then ill just have to get a new job fast.. Life goes on
It's a laugh or cry thing and I cant be arsed to cry over stuff like that so I'm laughing my head off!
Also, in other good news, the forum has a chat thing that is actually damn good :D great to be able to talk to other people :) I'm enjoying this feature..
So really, although a lot of shit has happened today, I'm having a pretty good time lol Went to the pub with friends today for lunch :) was good to see people and catch up. Although it was well established that phones are taking over our lives as there were far too many moments when it was deadly silent and we were all playing on our phones.. I'm as guilty as anyone else for this (if not more so) but seriously.. It's going too far when you talk to the other person in the room on your phone lol
