The Court of King Caractacus

[lees]

Hi pearl! Have a fabulous holiday and I'll definitely catch up with you in June.

Hi JacT too - are you on the alt? Would love to hook up whilst I'm up north.

Had an OK day today at work. Nothing exciting except nearly losing my trousers on the way to a trauma call as I hurtled down 5 floors worth of stairs - really must buy some more or put some weight back on! I think it must have looked quite comical to the rest of the ICU and paeds teams running with me.

I've been strong so far. Haven't let any misery or sadness out whilst at work except in private confines to my friends there. None of them would talk to her except professionally.

I'm just so up and down at the moment, I'm sure some of it is PMS as well.

GAL is going fine. Been running again, which is lovely in the sunshine. Spent a wonderful evening with a new friend (another date lol) at the cinema earlier this week and will definitely be seeing her again - we had such a laugh. I forsee us becoming really very close mates, we just clicked really well. Shame I'm not really attracted to her physically, no can that thought, not ready to go there yet anyway. Tonight the remaining mutual friend is coming round for dinner and catch up, I need to give her her birthday present so it should be a nice night in.

And then the next week is uberbusy. I'm working all weekend in the ER, off Monday but have to prepare for course I'm instructing on Tue/Wed. APLS is always great fun but very hard work, and the dinner on the first evening is always a riot. Thursday I'm paintballing with colleagues, and Fri just a normal day at work before setting off for Scotland on Sunday with one friend in the car and another joining us towards the end of the week.

Promise I will accost some men in kilts for you all, especially Aver!

You lot are fantastic. Really keep me going, and give me hope that I will survive this. Thank you.
