My memes folder is starting to bulge alarmingly. I don’t have the stamina to attempt another official Meme Week, so I’m going to randomly stick one in every couple of posts or so.
(un)relaxed dad has tagged me with a meme of his own devising: Birth – School – Work – Death in one sentence each.
Birth: Born in Huddersfield, Yorkshire: God’s own country.
School: My academic career has ranged from performing postmodern deconstructions of Alfred Hitchcock movies all the way through to learning how to wipe old ladies bottoms; there is surprisingly little difference between the two.
Work: A constant struggle between hardening myself to the horrors of the world / preventing myself descending into a cold hearted cynic.
Death: Heart attack caused by a lifetime of putting off the diet until tomorrow.
I tag my brother Sam at Rabbit Confused with Raisins, Bon Bon over at Phantom Kitty, and Bec at Have You Seen My Camel. Feel free to ignore the tag at your leisure.

And I’m not saying you’re going to live forever, but maybe it’s time to get on that diet?

People in the sunThe hitchcock stuff was part of the first degree I did (in Media Studies). The wiping peoples bums was part of my nurse training that I did when I found out that I wasn’t actually qualified to do anything remotely useful with my media studies degree.
But I’m not a proper nurse, I’m a mental health nurse. I work in a team that provide rapid response to people who are suicidal or acutely psychotic. Hence the horrors.
Yeah, I need to diet. I’ll start tomorrow.
