...in which Mat goes slightly mad
Jun. 28th, 2011 09:19 pm(updating dreamwidth as LJ seemed a bit weird (formatting ribbon vanished to nowhere....and other such possibly java-related issues))
anyway, I've resolved to start on a positive note and, contrary to what you may have heard in earlier posts, we have chosen wedding exit music thus:
(even if you hate Counting Crows (I do occasionally, even if I do own half a dozen of their albums), the fact it's from Shrek will hopefully raise a smile?)
Other happy news, I bought the wine for the reception yesterday, and paid the registrar today. Bank Manager not happy. I don't care.
um..what else...I've got 1 week of college left; handed in final two assignments today, got 4 back, passed them all :-)
Nic's seen a job she wants, youth employment advisor, = £9.5k pay rise from what she's on atm
less happy news...I've finally given in to the severe anxiety isues which have been plaguing me recently (which have turned me into a nervous wreck flirting with OCD and insomnia) , and went begging GP for a quick fix. "I'm definitely not depressed", said I. "I'll prescribe you anti depressants" said she. "I'm NOT taking anti-depressants", said I. "I can't wait 6 weeks for the effect to kick in and I'm certainly not taking them for 6 months" said I....then later..."ok give me the damn prescripion and I'll think about it" said I, and after swearing blind that I'm not depressed and am not taking anti depressants, I have been prescribed anti depressants. Got to love the NHS. Oh and also some Zopiclone, whatever the fuck that might be.
Yeah yeah I know about their use as anti-anxiety treatments, but I'm still not taking them. I'll see of the sleeping pills help. I just need something NOW or I'm going to go a liittle bit (more) mental. That, or my wife-to-be might hit me with a hammer to get me to lie down and go to sleep. Either way it's not good. I know it's short term, caused by the stress of wedding planning, which isn't going to last forever. I just need to stop worrying and/or sleep.
ah life...just when you think you've beaten it, it kicks you in the balls.
And yes I know on balance I probably shouldn't complain. Actually on balance maybe I should. Don't care really
