How come if you buy something off Amazon and pay with a card you don't have to give the 3digit number on the back of the card,this is the only site I've ever used to purchase something on the internet that's doesn't ask for it ?
I've bought 2 pairs of headphones,one pair will be connected to the main PC so I hear the beep when a table needs popped forward and they other will be connected to the laptop to play music so will have one ear hearing beeping noises all day long and the other hearing music,I know which ear I'd rather be.
I've no idea what they where putting in the lager last night but I'm still not feeling all that great now.If I'd had 12 pints I'd expect to be feeling fine by this time of the day.The body is a strange thing or I got a dodgy pint,one of the two.
I'm sure it probably doesn't seem like it but I do actually proof read my posts before I submit them.Personally it doesn't bother me if someone else hasn't put the effort into making there post punctually or grammatically correct without any spelling mistakes etc but I suppose I can see why it bothers others,in a way.Would you believe I was on course for a B in English Literature at A level,the fact I got an E is irrelevant,imo.I still remember how gutted I was when I failed my A levels.I got pneumonia in January of my second year,not sure if I've already mentioned this in the thread but anyway.So I got ill and missed about 2 months worth of time and never really caught up and did terribly in my A levels.
The plan was:go to college then onto University then become a rich accountant.I was very money orientated when I was younger,I always desired to be rich whereas now I honestly don't care about money;well in the sense of wanting lots of it anyway.Obviously nobody likes being broke and I'd like to be comfortable to the point where I don't have to worry about money but I certainly don't yearn to be rich.So I failed my A levels and I still remember sitting in the pub with me Dad,he knew I was proper gutted and I'm not ashamed to say I shed a tear over it in the pub.Looking back now I think how ridiculous to get upset over something like that but at the time I was very young and naive.I thought I was done and that was it for me,that I'd never have another chance to amount to anything,that still might end up being the case but I don't worry about it now
Since then my life has changed in a few directions.I became an accountant as anyone who's read this well knows but just did it a different way and I honestly believe it's worked out better for me this way than if I had of went to University.
I don't know why I do and it's hard to even explain but in general I struggle with people or more so they struggle with me and I reckon if I had've went I probably wouldn't have enjoyed Uni anyway.People just seem to find it hard to "get" me and obviously that must be something I'm doing.Don't get me wrong I get along well with nearly anybody and I'm sure if you asked most people what they thought of me it would be more positive than negative but I'd say I probably have one friend who I'm not related to.I'm friends with a lot of people on here but obviously that's different.I'm very close to me Dad,I also am with me Mam but not so much in a social way as she doesn't really drink.Me Dad's me drinking mate,he's the person a trust most and he's me best mate and I'm lucky to even have one person like that so don't think I'm complaining as I'm not.
I've lost two people in my life and they where both my grandparents from my Dad's side.I was still young when we lost my Grandad and although I was obviously very upset I didn't really know him that well.However,when I lost my Grandma it really hit me hard.I was very close to her and I spent a lot of time with her.I lived at her house as much as I did at home after my Grandad died.There wasn't really any reason for that other than I enjoyed being there.I typed it took my quite a while to get over it but I don't honestly believe you ever fully get over it,you just have to get on with it.It was such a pivotal moment in my life though and it changed me in so many ways.I became very "laid back" shall we say.I used to be a "worrier" but after that happened it changed me completely.I now really struggle to understand anyone who gets down about the little things,it's nonsense to me.I understand everyone's different so not everyone's going to be so nonchalant about minor things but to me it just seems crazy to waste time being frustrated about things that don't really matter.
I'm not really sure how I went from coming to ask about Amazon to telling my life story.I remember reading a similar post from Tighty on his diary at his bewilderment at how he could be so open about how he felt where anybody could read it and I agree with that.But there's no way I'm not posting this after I've spent an hour typing.
PS Yes this is me despite the use of words such as nonchalant and bewilderment,not sure where either of those came from.
