3845 - Thy wig be done

I got a shock call at work from Carla
She said 'Who's in the flat?' Said I dunno
You tell me. She said it's a man who's there
To look behind the sink, and then he'll go
I was worried. Conmen do this, you know
Anyway, all seems to be here, and she
Didn't let him walk down the hall, and so
Hopefully there won't be a burglary
Reassured to know he ain't got no key
And that he just popped in and out. Prepare
For comedy at the King's Arms, a show
Where I intend to play God literally
With my God wig. It's the Last Judgment, yeah!
Will I drink beer tonight? Maybe, don't know...

3844 - Meditation, aha-ha, meditation

Another Monday, but it was good fun
Helped organise and run a wellbeing day
For HMRC staff, and everyone
Was there, like fitness advisors, and they
Gave exercise suggestions and today
When I got home I tried the new ones. There
Was also anti-smoking advice, weigh
Up the desire to smoke or not, compare
And maybe decide to stop... Manicure
(Mainly a woman filing my nails), some
Meditation, prostate cancer talk - hey
And the nearby Salford Angel Centre
Does gym classes and days out for just ten
Quid a month, if I sign up straight away!

3843 - Uke can be serious

Oops, I nearly forgot today's diary
So here it is, though I stayed home all day
Apart from trash recycling just at the
End of the car park. Not done much today
Did not ask for gigs or write comedy
But Carla found and booked a good hostel
When we travel late March up to Geordie
Land, our open mic spots in Newcastle
At The Stand Comedy Club, must go well
Watched a very long documentary
'Hypernormalisation' - while rugby
Was on TV, and heard Man U repel
Southampton in a final at Wembley
Ate, then played uke well as I've ever played

3842 - Woozy floozy

A busy day, the usual stuff with Jo
Went to United's ground to buy tickets
Got some for a weeknight clash, the Euro
Match against Rostov, all else sold out, nixed
Popped into Bella Italia, I picked
Agnelli pasta which was nice, and she
Had pollo bianca pizza, then we tripped
Along the mall to buy some Cadbury
Creme Eggs, a bag each! Then I met Jenny
Bought her a meal in the Greenfinch, and so
Glad we went there and not to town, but it's
A red wine knockout, she felt too woozy
We had a sex talk, but felt we should go
Home, resume it next Thursday (must have sex!)

3841 - Not Labour Day

Stayed up late last night after cinema
Watching Question Time and by-elections
UKIP failed in Stoke, they can't win nowhere
Paul Nuttall pays price for the false mention
Of losing friends at Hillsborough - oh come on!
Nuttall, you nutter, what a stupid lie!
But in Cumbria, the Tories somehow won!
For Corbyn's Labour, a kick in the eye
It wasn't til 3.15 I could lie
In bed at last to sleep, perchance to snore
Did speculative job application
At work, then back home, messaging Jenny
Watching pop on TV, not doing much more
Might play uke if I can energise some

3840 - Union Slacker

A fun day at work, apart from the Tom
Problem (a guy who does no work). Also
Storm Doris with its wind and rain hit home
But now seems to have blown off eastward ho!
A Union Learning Rep meeting to go
To, soup for lunch, Covent Garden, reduced
In price. Walked home, exercised, had tea, so
Then to Home cinema, nine quid to view
Toni Erdmann, German comedy, whose
Idea was to set it mainly in Rom-
ania's capital, Bucharest, but no
Complaints from me. cos me and John have choosed
To go there in September. We will roam
The Transylvanian hills, which I'll video

3839 - Coke and empathy

Last night was fun, belated date with Jen
Met at the Shakespeare pub in town at 6
We both like early starts, so maybe then
We should next time meet at 5? Both had drinks
Then relocated to the Vine, got kicks
From chats and groping (on my part) in that
Quiet pub, room to ourselves, then taxi whisked
Us back in no time to her rain-drenched flat
For vodka and Coke, frolicking and chat
Much more cuddly than before, and warm when
We got together in bed. Electric
Batteries must heat her. How is she so hot?
Only 4 hours' sleep, back home on the tram
Then changed, and to off work, couldn't take sick!
