2003-05-14 - 11:43 p.m. Gosh I am exhausted, altho it's to be expected because recently I have not been sleeping and what with working... well I'm shattered. Think I will take it really easy tomorrow if possible. This evening I spent some time with my family, Cleo and KK, and then had a really nice dinner with them. I got myself into bed and felt really bad so lay down for a bit and must have fallen asleep because I woke up later on to find myself having a bad sweat. It's weird how all day I was cold - wearing thick winter tights, wool skirt, cotton long sleeve top and thick woolly roll neck jumper at work... then I lie in bed in a nightie and have a sweat... think it must be from exhaustion. Was too tired to shower or anything so just scooped up my 'now manky' hair and lay on top of my covers breathing heavily. Think I am gonna go and shower quickly in a second if I can manage it. I came online and read hot-crumpets diary. Maaaaaan that girl cracks me up. She really, really gets me giggling and totally cheered me up. I know she's going through a tough time at the moment, but her sense of humour is wonderful. Work was kinda weird today. Yesterday and today I made the fatal mistake of wishing that the day would be fairly easy and nothing too major, which clearly meant that it had to be quite the opposite. Today's events included: a false alarm that one of the full-time receptionists had been abducted by an 'Uncle Albert' homeless, sea-faring, navy man; a violent, drunk woman who decided that 1 minute was too long to wait for her money; a woman who was convinced that Social Services deals with animals... "But 'they' told me you deal with animals." "I'm sorry but I don't know what you are talking about." "They assured me that you deal with animals, don't you deal with animals?" "Look I have to tell you we don't deal with animals, we only deal with humans." ... I never did find out who 'they' were! Huffy woman got mad with me because I wouldn't agree with her that we deal with animals and put the phone down. A little bit later I got a call from a man who described himself in the following way: "Well, I have to say, I consider myself a bit of a benefits expert." Seeing as we don't deal with benefits I decided to add my penny's worth: "Well Sir, I am not at liberty to comment on that, but I can assure you that I am not a benefits specialist so I can't confirm anything with regards to benefits." Just like 'Animal Woman', this guy couldn't accept that I wasn't the right person to talk to and kept me on the phone for 20, yes 20 minutes while he kept repeating the same questions. He just didn't seem to be able to accept that Mobility Allowance and DLA are two completely different things... because after all, he is: "a bit of a benefits expert." I really do wonder where on earth people like this spring from! I'm off to shower and sleep... nigggggggghtttttttyyyyyyyy night :) |
