Demonic Possession

Topic: Shy Lux

Jesus K-Riced! Is there any other job where you have to deal seriously with demonic possession before nine in the morning? ! I know I've been a tad irascible of late, but - really!
I tried to keep a straight face, but couldn't help suggesting referral to a mental institution, which isn't going to help my customer-niceties reputation. Nor the parting comment of "get out, please, you're creeping me out now."
Argggggh. Just call me Basil and put me out to seed.

I'm going out to Duch's to get my brain fuzzed, and a parking ticket for over sleeping. If you see a mad woman on C4 throwing flip flops at The Med, it's Another Sarah. Whereas if you pass an internet cafe and see someone wailing and gnashing at the screen, it's a poor misfortunate Blogger blogger, frustrated by their decision to change their editing screen to make sure it doesn't actually work. Way to go, Blogger.

No Blo'te today, just Brendan's Ace Meme:

"This morning I woke up to the sound of the telephone ring. On the other end, a person who cares about me asked what the hell I was doing in bed, and whether I thought I could write in my sleep. In which case, she submitted, then I was surely talented.
I'd like to think that I write everday, but you know what would be great? Is if every now and then someone checked in. Even a total stranger. "

I'd appreciate a wake up call around 8, tomorrow morning, please, if you're about. Ask for Vanessa.

Cheers.

Hmmm, 8am? I should be able to do that - that's 'spooning porridge into the reluctant toddler' time, so I'll have a few minutes to spare, no doubt.

I'll pop the number into the addess book, you might be lucky and wake up to my cheeky Irish brougue(sp?) and I'd appreciate it if you'd be damn grateful, thank you. :)

Sorry, this is slightly irrelevant but I was gritting my teeth at a load of pretentious bloggy nonsense, the first I've read for two months, then eventually tracked you down again and it's dead bloody good, as ever.

You sound a lot more Irish in the pub than on the phone, Pete. Thanks very much! Sorry I had no idea at all what was going on until about five minutes into the conversation. Think I was still slightly drunk.

Cheers, Billy - I forgot to mensh that I would be staying in an area with shit mobile coverage, didn't I, so I couldn't make it work when I tried to pick up. I tried ringing you back, but my phone refused to store the number, so you might have a garbled message on your voicemail, and then again you might not. :-)
Hey, you sound camp!

The only bits there that I ti kanisised, were milao and Ellenika. More than rusty, there.
Still - air kisses and bloggy respect to the outlander.

...anypoo, how do you know it was me - I didn't say my name (damn, blew my secret cover)....

...I do have a garbled message :^)...there was I, hiding in the big fridge behind a pile of cauliflowers, the cooling fans going in the background, trying to avoid being seen by a "manager", risking my job to make sure that you don't get a parking fine - and you say I sound *camp*!!!!...

*ponders* - don't know if I should be offended :^)...

Good to talk to you, even if it were only for 6 minutes and 57 seconds. You sound like my mother - "you're losing your accent, sounding more English every day" etc. etc. I have to remind her I've been living here 16 years, so a slight accent change is understandable, FFS. I think people do sound different on the phone anyways, crappy sound quality or something.

I can't really criticise, I've ridded my accent of its West Country and northern roots entirely. "You just sound like some generic posh Surrey girl" as Second Dater put it.
