Marv’s Midlife Meanderings

  Saturday February 26 2022 - The Blurb - Saturday saw me getting home eventually, after the break to wake myself up enough to journey that last little bit. We watched about fifteen minutes of an episode of Reacher from me waking up after five hours sleep, and then I did the final work on the new episode of Pods Like Us, which was recorded over four different short sessions, including the last few questions and answers, which were done in a different way; Because of timing issues as in finding a time to chat, I sent the last few bits of my questions to Kris from Reel Film Reviewed in audio form, and he sent me audio of his responses, which I then pieced together, replacing my actual questions so that I would “respond”.  Then I got ready for work and left for work. Work was going steady until around 2:45am, when I arrived at a site to do a standard check. As I was walking around doing my checks I heard voices that seemed to be close by.  I got my torch and aimed it at the roof. Up aroun

  Thursday February 24 2022 - The Blurb - I woke up at 11am, which is late for me after recent months, but is a better time when considering my working on Thursday night shifts. I spent the next few hours sorting the music out on Louise’s MP3 player, adding new songs to it, and changing the format of others that weren’t playing.  Late on I went to Aldi for the weekly shopping trip, then got ready, and went to work. Work was pretty much the same as always with nothing much to speak of. Got in from work at 8:30 after leaving work at around 7:40am.  The ‘casts - (Notes spoken to Siri, and edited later if I remember)! 3 Minute Lesson - (0:03) episode 385: November 5 2021: diabetes risk Daily Dad Jokes - (0:02) March 15 2021 ars Paradoxica - (0:35) season 3 episode 14: June 6 2018: chapter 36 - Release “The final confrontation.

  Friday February 25 2022 - The Blurb - Got in around twenty past eight in the morning, after leaving work at around twenty-five to/twenty to eight. It felt rude just leaving work and not chatting with Wayne for as long as usual, but I’ve got to get into the mindset now of living further away from work means having to leave on time to get home. I was asleep a little after 9am, because I absolutely had to get up at 2pm.  Wayne had asked me to come into work a little earlier, as they needed to speak with me about my attitude on Wednesday at work.    They saw footage of me on the office cameras where I went absolutely crazy. Instead of leaving at 4pm for work, I left at 3:30, only to find that the traffic getting to Newark was so bad.  I got to Kelham Hall for around twenty past four, and yet it still took until five to five to get to the office.    That stretch alone is normally around eight minutes driving.  During the conversation at the office I mentioned that it was more than just wo

  Tuesday February 22 2022 - I got in from work at a quarter to ten in the morning because of flooding on the roads and other weather related shit.  I had a sleep for about forty-five minutes from 11:45am to 12:30. I came up with some ukulele music that I sent to fellow FAWM songwriting challenger Casey. We watched two episodes of Reacher on Amazon Prime, and an episode of Gogglebox from the past Friday.  In the evening I noticed a phone call that I missed from work, and after listening to a voicemail they left I’m now worrying about calling them back. I missed something on Friday night at work, because I didn’t do my job properly.  I need to get another job soon, because everything is making me worse at the job.    However, I’m worried that I will then get a bad reference or no reference at all to be more honest, as employers can’t give a negative reference nowadays.  I’m not looking forward to ringing them back to explain that, as explained in an earlier post, I decided to not get ou
