Krimbo Slice

by Grunt on Dec.02, 2009, under Funny, Work

As all the guys in the office love Kimbo Slice (See this FIGHT)

-and its Xmas time and we’re putting up Xmas decorations in the office including our Xmas tree. However, our sad little tree does not have an angel.

So someone suggested we put Kimbo Slice on top, which led to someone else suggesting make it xmassy, which led my TL to suggest I use my photoshop skills to make it so…

And I did!

Also made a whiter variation which, as there is alot more editing, looks worse.

Fate and weekend to Aberdeen

by Grunt on Nov.13, 2008, under Real Life

So I believe everything happens for a reason, right. Well, more or less. I’d like to believe fate has a plan written out for us and we’ll do things, move places, meet people etc. On a grand scale anyway. But we have control over our own decisions, like what time we get up, what music we listen to, if we have tea or coffee when we wake up… that kinda thing.

Which means, I was supposed to meet my ex and we were supposed to have fun and stuff, but a full relationship was not meant to be. So I just need to wait for someone else who will fall in love with me and I with them. Someone who will give me everything I deserve from a relationship and life itself. I don’t know… maybe she’ll be so perfect for me that we’ll fall in love and everything will be so right that we run away together and start a whole new fresh life together free from all the troubles of our past….. Or maybe its just a pipe dream.

Oh well.
So tomorrow morning I’ll be packing my shit and hopping on a train to Aberdeen. I think I’ll be staying with my ex-ex. Don’t worry, it’s cool between us now. Its been over a year and we’ve forgiven each other for the shitty break up and I even understand her reasons for splitting up with me now. Its taken a while but it makes sense. I know now what its like to love someone but not be *in love* with them. So i fully respect all we’ve been through and its the past.

Anyway, the reason I’m going down to Aberdeen is because,
1) I fucking miss the place. Aberdeen is so awesome. Its not too big and scary, but it’s also not too small. The lifestyle there is so varied, you’re not forced into some backwards way of life. Much unlike Inverness where everyone seems so narrow minded and just fucking Highlander-ish. This is the 21st century… Shops don’t close on Sundays because of Jeezuz! Assholes.

2) Shopping. Xmas is coming and there’s only so much you can buy online. Some stuff you just need to browse the shop for look at the merch for real.

3) Holidays to take. I got days off to use before 31st Dec and I need time away from the shithole i work in.

4) Catch up. I miss my friends and I wanna see them again. Grab a coffee, have a pint or two. Ya know!?

So I think now its best I get to sleep cos I’m getting up early to pack stuff since I decided to chat with my friend for most of the evening instead of doing what I should have been doing.
Ah well…Shit happens. Train isn’t till 10:44 so I got plenty time in the morning.

3rd Move

by Grunt on Dec.09, 2007, under Real Life

Since I came to Inverness just over 3 months ago, I’ve now moved for the 3rd time. Now i’m living with one of the guys I work with…sort of.
Been looking for ages to get a place in town so thats its easier to get to work and town for shopping, pubs etc. And now I have somewhere! AND INTARWEBNET! So glad to have it back. Its been so pish trying to surf the net on restricted access at work. And it was sloooow!
But now its fast and awesome and … aaaahh pr0n! hehe :mrgreen: The flat is alright. My room is huge! I can have my comp desk, chest of drawers AND a double bed will fit in nae bother when I go buy one and still have room to fling a cat.
Only bad thing, my mates girlfriend is a smoker, but I can cope with it I suppose. And its all electric, no gas heating.
[edit] and i’ve just found out this morning that the shower is pish too! [/edit] :-(
The good things are:

  • Its right next door to my eldest brother and his girlfriend and baby Grace. So I get to see her all the time and be the best Uncle ever!
  • Its about 15 min walk from work and close enough staggering distance from pubs. Prob about £3-£4 taxi fair if pissing rain. lol.
  • INTARWEBNET! Lmao

My weekend has been rather good though… (continue reading…)
