Just like a bus...

...Hee-haw for a month then two blogs in two nights. Its night shift again. Right enough, I dont get a chance to do this on day shift. Too many people wanting to use the computer for proper work type things like looking up lab results or worthy e-mails to people sitting in their offices along the corridor.

Quiet shift so far, but with the added potential of going pear shaped - which is always good for the nerves. I'm on with a nice crowd which always makes things seem less stressfull.

Managed not too bad a kip this morning. The cats even gave me peace although you dont have to stir much in your sleep to have them up, "treading" on you for reassurance and greeting in your face.

Went to the gym again, really getting into this now. Still a fat bastard but with a bit of muscle definition now. Dont think I'll ever become like one of those posing dames with no tits, massive oily sweaty muscles with a steroid induced heart attack but I would like to be toned, wobbling a bit less and non-existant Bingo Wings.
And there are some really nice looking guys at it as well.
Some of the women are a bit scary.
Nice big panoramic windows. Watching the big thunderhead clouds roiling up this afternoon just before we got a short but very sharp thunder storm.
And if the joggies are dry when I get up this afternoon - I might just go back again before the next shift tonight.
Just dont do what I did on Monday - forgot to put a spare pair of knickers in the rucksack along with the work clothes and everything else.............had to put on the sweaty drawers I'd worked out in.

Some big production company were filming an ad. for Sony based on one which was on the telly for the past year. The original ad. featured thoudands of brightly coloured balls bouncing down a street in San Francisco to highlight Sony's new Hi-definition colour tellies.
What does Scotland get - rockets filled with different colours of paint attached to rockets set to go off at specified heights blasted over a couple of derelict buildings - one a multi-storey, the other a sort of a big maisonette done up to look as though they are still inhabited in Toryglen.
So, you're on an exercise bike and you're looking at these buildings and all you can see are big bands of red at the top of a 20-storey multi, followed by a big band of yellow to orange with massive splodges of blue and green. Bit of an improvement anyway. Bet the local junkies freaked out.
