Amy Winehouse RIP

I won't speak ill of the dead and my sympathy goes to Amy's family. I can't say it came as a shock that she passed away as we know of her well publicized issues with drink and drugs. It's a waste of a life and I hope that it will help prevent more wasted lives from being wasted in the same way.
Of course the monster that is media had covered everything she did and indeed didn't do. There will be much speculation over this but I hope that in the end she and everyone finds the peace they sought.

Sore foot and yet my boss still wants me to work!

I was unlucky enough to stamp my foot down onto a plug so one of the prongs gashed it. I can't believe how sore it is. I think what's worse is the skin flapping about and the bruise being rubbed by the shoe.
My boss wants me in to work as we're deadlining this week. On the one hand I am up for it as I like keeping active and I'm mentally fine, but on the other hand I can't barely walk to or from work let alone drive or go out on patch and visit clients. It's crazy!

Botox like crack!

I don't agree how a surgeons can offer free botox knowing that it's like a drug to addicts or a way to tempt people into this falsely beautiful world. It's so superficial and a dark art to practice. Once you try it, you'll have to keep doing it to maintain the effects. It's horrid!

Cosmetic Surgery

I attended a cosmetic surgery specialist the other day. The session was quite weird as they had champagne flowing, botox for free and loads of other non surgical things before the talk. The talk itself was freaky though. The surgeon made it clear he was going to promote surgery (after all it's his profession) but also wanted to promote the less invasive procedures.
His talk was interesting enough given that it was all about how he was ethical. Shame that these ethics weren't translating into caring for the patient mentally. Surely somewhere a governing body (which isn't owned by a select few surgeons for their own ends) should step in and say that the issue should be treating people with dignity and not trying to milk them for all these different operations.
I thought I was in another world when he said that all ugly people would be beautiful in 10 years time. Partially down to technical advances, partly down to people getting treatments done earlier on and it being more commonplace.
I wonder if people in the congo (not saying that anyone there's ugly), would agree with him at all? I doubt it! I just don't think that they live on the same planet these specialists. Obviously the botox has got into his brain!

Saturday night

Another week over with and a Saturday night on the horizon. I can't wait to have another night with my wife!

Promoted at work!

I am really pleased to announce that I finally have been promoted at work today. This long overdue promotion came in recognition for making significant sales and contributions in the office as well as launching new platforms in the magazines I work on which has seen fresh revenue come in and helped others generate money.
The increase in pay will certainly come in handy as we're planning to get away for a week soon.
