Today [12]

[Joan Archer]

I finish the first year of college on Friday

Congratulations in advance Harry!

Today I decided I will be getting a good phone for myself this year..but can't choose between the two

Sony Xperia U - Full phone specifications
Nokia Lumia 520 - Full phone specifications

I should have the Nokia Lumia 520 arrive tomorrow, had a phone call from my carrier today and will be getting it free just by upgrading my plan by a couple of pounds a month. I had a look at it's specs after and I'm looking forward to getting it. At least I'm used to Windows 8 so hopefully shouldn't have much trouble with it.

good choice joan, the camera looks decent and has a flash, my last phone upgrade was more of a downgrade with the camera having no flash.
but im stuck with it now. when my orange contract runs out im going with tesco mobile at £7.50 per month.
and keep the phone i have now.

I'll get the Lumia 520 then . I haven't used Windows 8 - much but it's just the matter of getting used to it.

Let me know what color your phone is

Today at work I was reaching across the counter to plug in a laptop and hit my head on the shelf, leaving a very light cut on the top left of my head. Three weeks ago in the server room I managed to hit the back of my head on the metal edge of the Power panel.

I think they might make me start wearing a hard hat :roflmao:

It's the black one Yussi, I'll let you know what I think when it comes, I'm on tenterhooks waiting for the delivery I can't wait to get my hands on it.

Today I made the biggest TV mistake of my life, I decided to watch the pilot episode of Here Comes Honey Boo Boo to see what's the fuss about, as the show started airing now on Finnish TV.

I refuse to believe such people exist, the whole show must be staged. I refuse to believe such lifestyle exists.

Seeing this family, this bunch of rednecks "rednecking" around makes me feel sick. How repulsive .

Very unfortunately, there are actual things like that out there.

The show title sounds like a line from the Yogi Bear show

Today ........ I spent most of the day chasing down two odd sized trailer tires in Chattanooga Tennessee. Yep had two literally explode while driving down the Interstate. No jack in the truck I was driving. No 4 way either. And I've already mentioned no spare(s). Must say that the people here are very friendly and helpful though. Have a second degree burn on my thigh from helping to load a personal motorcycle into a trailer door. Had just been ridden to the store and I couldn't move as the whole durn thing would have dropped on me. So now I have a infected 2nd degree burn the size of an orange oozing down my leg. Have 2 more trips to make tomorrow. Athens Georgia to Allegany New York. Already made the drive twice/no sleep in three days. In Motel as we speak and ready for bed!

Today I watched Man of Steel... again!

 

[boohbah]

i see man of steel in the mirror each morning.

i see man of steel in the mirror each morning.

Your mirror placed so that you can see the neighbor?

You must be seeing "Man of Hairs" in your mirror Jules.
:haha:

 

[boohbah]

i no longer use the nicotine patches and i still use the nicotine spray daily ,though much less now.
the next goal is to wean myself slowly off the spray until i no longer need it.

Congrats Julian on the 3 months!
They are one of the hardest things to kick the habit so my hat is off to you.
THW

 

[boohbah]

thanks dennis, i can't say i dont feel like one from time to time, thats where the spray is really handy.
and as the spray only delivers 1mg of nicotine then i think it will be easy to reduce it .

i noticed today in the pharmacy that there is an electronic cigarette that delivers 16mg of nicotine.
i dont understand why anyone would want to take such a high dose when they are trying to kick the addiction, surely that just prolongs things.
anyhow i no longer feel nauseous when i smell a lit cigarette in town .

 

[Dinesh]

Well done Jules. Now work on keeping away from the spray.

 

[derekimo]

Way to go Jules.

 

[boohbah]

thanks dinesh and derek
the anti smoking clinic nurse is on my case to reduce so before long she will stop giving prescriptions for them
i have two in the medicine cabinet so probably i will stop the spray in a month or so.
