Angry

And I thought that Spam was only distasteful out of the tin?

 


Hi guys, sorry I haven't been around for a while, but, to be honest I haven't had that much to say.

 

That is until today!

 

I've tried real Spam (YUUUUKKK), and most, if not all of us have "suffered" from the e.mail variety, but it is now really, seriously, starting to tee me off.

 

The reason for this moan?

 

At the weekend I have developed this habit of checking the various Spam filter folders that are attached to my "many" e. mails (you know the ones - "have an e.mail when you sign for this", I thought it might be a good idea to have a Yahoo/MSN/Mail account), just in case there is something "trapped" by the various ISP spam software's that I might actually want .

 

I have been through half-a-dozen of my most used accounts and the total of spams is in excess of 500 in just TWO DAY'S.  500, it's unbelievable. I managed to recover half - a - dozen "wanted" e. mails, but in excess 500 unwanted, unasked for , e. mails.    

 

Do I want to enhance what nature has given me?

 

Would I like to buy some pills to cure some ill I didn't have in the first place?

 

Do I want to cancel all my debts? (Assumingly to be replaced by some other debt supplied by them?)

 

IF I wanted these services (which I don't !!) I would going looking for Medicines form my Doctor, and sort my debts out with a reputable Bank.

 

And what was even worse, some crafty so-&-so has trawled the Internet, and is using MY e.mail as the "sent by:" address, obviously hiding his (or her) own tracks in the process.

 

    Angry is not the word. I would by banned (quite rightly) by the moderators if I actually posted what I really feel.    

 

  It is people (idiots?) like these that are really tainting the Internet experience. Some days I really question whether I want to continue using the Internet at all. 

 

   Boy this has really teed me off

Migraines

Not a lot to say - and then some time went missing?


Please accept my apologies (I always seem to be saying at the moment?), but there really hasn't been much to talk about   


Well the latest

Life at "Chez Smudger" has been AVERAGE to say the least. We went to Work/School. We came home. We went on with life "as is"


That was until last night that is.


Last Night we were supposed to go out to the Kids Football "do". That is to say we were going with my sister to her lads football dance, as our Liam's team have their do next week. Anyway, I had felt a little off it all day, but as the work day grew to a close I knew something wasn't at all right. By the time I got home, it felt like my head was being bashed against a barn door, my eyes were streaming from the pressure.



I had a little bite of tea, ready to go out.

Sat down for five minutes, and that was that.

The next 12 hours, there and there about's, are pretty much missing. I sort of remember bursts of sickening pain.

Almost waking, but not quite getting there. It was like stretching out for the light, but then the pain and the darkness drag you back into unconsciousness.

I remember waking for a drink (gummed up lips - YUK!!!), and going back to bed. Then sort of pondering why was the house quiet?

Were was everyone?.

It took several minutes for my stunned brain to realise that everyone had gone out.

Not that it really mattered, as then I again drifted off into the darkness.


Next thing a "REALLY" know is I wake up at 07:00, almost as if nothing has happened.

Migraines I have had on and off all my life. This one appears to have been one of the shorter ones (in the "old days" - before the tablets - some of the attacks seemed to last days). If your a fellow sufferer, you have my sympathy, if you don't suffer, it is one of those things that you defiantly wouldn't wish on your worst enemy, as they say.




God Bless
