Things Changing in London

Things are really changing for me now. I have finally left my bar managers position and have been asked to manage my friends brazilian jazz band.Things seem to be really positive and I have moved in to a new flat so life is really peacefull for me after a year and a half of chaos. We have a gig tonight in central London.   I made a small flyer to email my friends so I have also posted here so if any tfers from London fancy a bit of music tonight your welcome to come along.

Moving home

Today I got the keys to my new flat.I have been living above work for over a year now till this place came along so I am really happy to have somewhere nice to move to especialy as I have given my notice in at work and have been unhappy there for a while.  It's only small but has a nice outside patio and a patch for me to grow some herbs which is a real rarity in London and I wont be woken up by passing traffic all night long so finally some peace full sleep.  Got so much stuff to move I starte

Dreams got stranger

In my last journal I mentioned a recurring nightmare about growing a big black tumour on my back.  2 days ago I quit my job and have given a month's notice till I leave. That night I dreamt I squeezed the tumour and my boss came out of it.Thats strange, anyway last night I slept all nightwithout any nightmares. I think it must be linked to this job that I hate.  I stupidly lived above my work and never got any time off till now but next week I am renting a new flat of my own cant wait to get som

bad dreams

I have been having a recurring nightmare that I have a large black tumour growing out of my back and this wakes me most nights. My flatmates have heard me shouting out in my sleep during the night and my sleep pattern has become a mess. I was wandering if anyone knows what this dream means????

Nice story for you

Here is a nice story for you It’s Christmas day not last year but the year before, I am stuck in London away from my family and friends and feeling lonely, I check my email and I have a message on myspace. I had only recently set it up and had not really bothered using it. I checked the message and it basically said look on my myspace you will know who I am if you want to get in contact please message me. I looked on the page and it was my fathers third wife, they had divorced when I was

Easier times ahead for me

After xmas I was going to leave my job, my boss really did not want me to go so I decided to give him another chance on the promise that he found me a new assistant. So far we have had no luck finding someone suitable. Today I got a phone call form my ex assistant manager today, she stopped working for me last August when she got a job offer that was supposedly a better position. Turns out it wasn't. I never wanted her to leave  as well as being great at her job she was also a true friend.We had

Shambles Gig

My friend Jimmy turned up at mine a few hours ago asking if I wanted to go to a gig at Brixton academy. He knew the guys playing and we had guest list so the gig was cheap just a £5 donation to charity instead of the £20 ticket charge. The band was babyshambles,my friend Jimmy knows them well and has DJ'd for them a few times. As the gig was only a few bus stops away I decided I might as well check it out and see what they are like.I didn't think much to be honest the crowd were all quite young

Good mood

Its now 16 days since I had a drink, my mood is better I am feeling more creative and also feeling a little more complacent with my life. My stress levels are lower and I think it really is doing me some good. Over half way to having a month without alcohol which is my goal, its really hard whilst living in a bar to do this but if I do a month I will feel really pleased with my self.

Got a cold

Feeling a bit rough today I have a fever the weather is bad and I feel ****.Although at the same time I feel good as I managed to DJ all night last night just drinking tea and water with no alcohol, so that's 8 days without a drink so far, maybe this cold is my body getting used to being sober as its the longest time in years that I have not had at least a few drinks.  Ok time to go back to work in the bar gonna get some ginger and lemon and force this cold out.

New bike

Went to a bike shop yesterday and had a look at what they had second hand (cant afford a good new one at the moment). He had just had a Trek road bike traded in as a part exchange just the right size for me but he said it needed a service before it went out to the shop front. It looked ok but not immaculate but being short I need a smaller frame and it's hard to find a god one second hand.  I said I would check out a few other places and would be back tomorrow if I wanted it.  I checked the cost

Just a start

Ok lots of you read my other journal a few days ago so I don't need to go in to that again. Well I still haven't had a drink (thats not easy when you run and live in a bar but I will beat this one), I have started eating better and have spoken to a friend who is now a personal trainer who is going to sort me out a program to fit in to my lifestyle. Well I actually feel a but run down but I did work very long hours all weekend and have been suffering with insomnia. Still feeling positive about th

Advice needed

Recently I have not been feeling great about my life or myself. I drink way too much and have quite depressive hangovers on a regular basis. I have decided I want to change this and myself, I am bored of partying and feel my life is just going round in circles and I am not achieving anything.  I was just wondering if anyone on here knows some good sources on the internet or books  that I may look at to help improve myself. Good ways to stop drinking, meditation, positive thought etc. Any help an

Blonde joke

A blonde, a brunette, and a redhead show up for the same job interview. The brunette is the first one to go in, and after filling out the forms and going through the questions, the interviewer decides to ask her last question: "How many D's are there in "INDIANA JONES""? The brunette thinks for a second and responds "One". The interviewer sends her back with a promise that he'll get back to her after he had interviewed the remaining candidates. The redhea

Stupid Girl

Why do girls go back to women beaters. I have a mongolian girl who works for me who has a bf that hits her. One time I rang her up to tell her when to next come in to work and found myself speaking to a jealous idiot of a bf or ex bf as she told me. He decided to threaten me down the phone, I told him I was her boss and he really shouldn't be getting jealous but he just got worse so I told him not to be stupid and not to give her a hard time because I was calling her. After this chat I told he

New year new start

Today I handed my notice in at work. I wrote a long letter explaining a large percentage of what I felt was wrong with my job, which was mainly the way I have been treated by my boss.It's now public knowledge that I am moving on and I have been surprised today by the number of  regular customers who have said when I am gone they will also be moving on somewhere else to drink. Wether this is just talk or they mean it I wont know till I am long gone. Don't know what I am going to do next but I got

RIP 1 year since a legend dies

It is 1 year today since the legend James Brown passed away at the age of 73 years of age. James Brown nicknamed The Godfather of Soul inspired many of the musicians and artists we listen to today. Without him the music we have today would not be the same. It may not be strictly true but some people credit him with inventing rap and funk music, He is one of the most sampled artists of all time ( I know myself I have sat for hours in my youth cutting up breaks of his on my old Akai sampler an

Last time

I have decided today this is the last time I am putting my life on hold for the benefit of someone else's business.My boss got me to agree to work the xmas period as he had no one else, after which he had a drunken episode and verbally abused me this was after working for 1 year for him with no time off and owing me thousand of pounds in wages, In fact to help him out I have worked well over the legal hourly limit each week for no extra pay as we were intending to become partners in his business

Time for a change

I have been running a bar in London for over a year, lately things have been getting more and more stressful for me. I was meant to buy in to the business this coming April.  The problem is my boss is very depressed as he has a broken heart, unfortunately he has been getting drunk a lot and taking his personal life out on everyone who works for him. On Tuesday night he got out of control and took it all out on me. It was my day off but I live at my work so I never get a break from the place. I h

Problem after problem

I haven't written a journal for a long time now.  Not really had much time for anything except work. I am not writing this for your comments just need to get some stuff off my chest.  The problem seems to be the harder I work the less I achieve. In the last few weeks I have realised someone is stealing from the bar I manage but I cant prove who and this morning I found that we had been broken in too and the office door had been ripped off. We had some champagne and wine stolen from the bar upst
