Random MSN Gibberings LIV: teh polis are watching us!

so glad that something that coulda gone so wrong ended up pretty right (minus the police in the ifrst place) shammy!

i'd like to wish everyone a happy galileo day. he is basically the father of modern science, the first to really apply maths to physics, and was matyrd for his belief in rational investigation of the world.
 
Hehe. Happy Galileo Day indeed! Never knew there was such a thing but if anyone deserves a day he'd be a good candidate :)

Reminds me, was watching a great doc that made me think "Bet Chinup would like this one" t'other day. Right up your quantum alley (as it were) but buggered if I can remember which it was cos I watched loads over the weekend. Might come to me. Might not. Your mate Seth was in quite a few, naturally :)
 
ahhh mint well if you work out which one then let me know cos i love that shit and its good for getting the boyf up to speed. haha my mate seth. the crazy thing is, he literally is mates with my supervisor.

anyway, i must go and do some work, it will vastly increase my chances of actually being able collaborate with his group- i've steered my research towards things i know he's interested in just for that purpose. not only that, you know i love my hardcore music, bostons like a spiritual home for me!!!!
 
Ugh, I just had to get a loan. But it's nice not being totally skint. Think i'm gonna get a bottle of something cheap and something easy for dinner.

We were gonna make soup but we had that on Sunday night. I love soup I could eat it every day I just don't fancy making it tonight.

Slept on and off pretty much all day. Not been getting great sleep lately so it's been nice to catch up.



Morning you all you sexy eadders out there
 
Morning yerself, Sexy Sadie :)

Loans are a bit of a mixed blessing I would have to agree. The actual loan side of the bargain is pretty sweet, the having to pay it back bit considerably less so. Especially if it's the type that involves interest. The Muslims (and even the early Christians before they "forgot" what Baby Jeebus told them) have the right idea about interest payments...
 
I'm so bored today, not feeling over great or productive. I'm trying to come up with a concept for an A/V art installation I have to produce for uni, bit of a ball ache coming up with something cohesive, got some ideas but not exactly sure how to pull them off technically. Just had to go through the motions of picking up subbies at the chemist, being looked down upon and generally treat like a scum bag, tempted to have some lorazepam to help kick my brain back in to gear. Coming off drugs is a fuckin nightmare, the boredom/head fuck ahhhhhhh
 
What was their views on loans?

I don't mind paying it back. We've got overtime payments coming on payday so we'll have more money than usual. It did cost £20 for the pleasure though.

It just means I'll have money for when Cherry and Les come over this weekend. Oh yeah, And for that silly thing called food and such.
 
Charging interest on loans is seen as sinful and immoral in Islamic circles as it was in early-era Christianity too. Even religious nuts get some things bang on the (0% APR) money. Become a Muslim - pretty sure there are Islamic banks that do interest free loans on religious grounds.

Rushes: I know exactly what you mean about the shiteyness of switching from addiction to maintenance to tapering to quitting. Didn't you say summat about reducing your Subz dose already recently somewhere or did I imagine it? If I didn't imagine it is it not maybe a bit soon to be thinking about reduction? Took me at least two years maintenance before I was physically, mentally and emotionally stable enough to actually do the tapering and quitting bit. Takes time to adjust - lots of time - and trying too hard to speed it up tends to be counterproductive. But I know sod all of your situation so take, leave, use or ignore any and all of the above. It gets easier <3
 
Yeah I got a 2mg reduction yesterday as they don't see me as long term case for maintenance and are fairly liberal with allowing me to have some control over my treatment. Defo not ready to totally come off but I'm happy to be reducing slightly, I may stay on this dose for a while I'm not sure. The emotional side is a real killer though, for the most part I feel ok but my mind is still going in circles sometimes driving me up the wall. The price of admission I guess..
 
Indeed it is. Without wishing to state the obvious too much, the few days around each step down are always a bitch. I tended to stay on a given dose for long enough to be totally settled on it and for each step down go very cautiously. Often used to just reduce by 0.5mg at a time (roughly - by splitting 2mg pills) and once I was below 4mg just down in 0.2mg increments (you can get 0.2mg bupe pills so easier to do). Not so easy with supervised scripts though but your consultant should be pretty understanding if taking it a bit easy on the reductions seems more suited. I was possibly being over-cautious with my reductions but after so many relapses trying too hard to get it over with as quick as possible it was the only way for me.

Your body tends to let you know what pace to go at - as does your mind but is possibly less trustworthy at certain stages of tapering. Always worth giving it the benefit of the doubt cos addiction tends to put it through the ringer somewhat with all the ups and downs that come with it. Tends to be stability that's most important in the early stages of coming off opies, in my opinion.

I can also teach your grandma to suck eggs ;)
 
I just remembered why I don't like taking the kids to the cinema during the day. It's because I fucking detest other peoples kids. Noisy messy little cunts.

Had to laugh though. My wee boy stood up & asked loudly why nobody can shut up. Lol
 
I know your pain Cletus. I really detest other peoples children. My two roll their eyes.

I'm not bragging *too much * But I've been told mine are polite sweet children. I wonder why I don't get the same kids other people get to see? Though even at home they always say their please and thank you's. A dying politeness IMO.

Yeah I can definitely feel the missing 2mg, anxious and shakey and bit muddled up but it's do-able. I'm down to 4 now, so I'm going to stay on this dose til I feel settled and as you pointed out, go down in small increments. I've too much uni work on to be going through more harsh WDs so I'm gonna take my time with it. I've used twice over the last month since I started tritation, both a mistake I won't (hopefully) be repeating. I felt stable on 8, then 6mg but I'd rather be on 4 so its easier to eventually jump off with minimal WD. Luckily my tolerance went down due to the drought, my mates who kicked just before the drought are sitting on 12mg subs and have yet to reduce at all, really don't wanna be in that situation where its gonna take years.

Cheers for the kind words tho, it's always good to hear it from people who've been there.
 
Anyway, on a slightly better note, I've got some decent ideas to sit and work with for this project, an my girlfriend just got back from a local film shoot having scored a decent part in the final film. I might get some sound editing work out of it :) To top it off, she's also gonna get some take away in to cheer my miserable arse up
 
aw, thats what I like to hear WR's. Nice to be pampered when you're feeling rubbish. You've got a nice woman. Glad to see you appreciate it.

I hope you feel better soon.

I hate cunts that aren't polite. I might come across as a wide wee dick sometimes (all the time?) but I'm always on my P's & Q's, always have been. Hate unnecessary rudeness. Even just some clown in the queue in front of me at the supermarket that doesn't say thanks to the cashier does my box in, or folk that don't hold doors for people etc. No need for it, it's so fucking easy to be a little bit nice to people.
