It seems that everyone I know is totally fooked today and walking round like a zombie, so to check whether this is a national phenomenon, I thought I'd ask you lot as well.
So, are you knackered, or fresh as a daisy?

Me. Tired of going to the bog after a particularly nasty Chicken Vindaloo last night. I never thought laying a log (or more accurately doing some pebbledashing) would be so tiring......

Yeah, I've been tired today. Do you think it's because it's cold outside?
And who's got a cold suddenly? Must be SAD or something?

Right, this is how my weekend went. Its a tale of a weekend where sleep and food being secondary considerations.
5pm and the drinkin starts. My mate has moved departments so it'd rude not to go down the bar.
8pm when the bar closes I head over to Camden to another pub. its my mates birthday and it'd be rude etc. Finally crash round a mates house at 1 am. Get up at 5.55 am and drive the porcelin bus thanks to the dodgy slice of pizza I had outside the pub. Feeling a lot better I leave at 6am and make my way home. Get there at 8am and start preparing the cossie for the legal cruise I'm going to.
The cars ready at 9 am so shes goes back into the garage and I go to bed. Get up at 11am and drive to the venue. a great time is had and I donut the cossie on the sapphire rims I brought with me.
About lunchtime I get hungry, (still havent eaten since the pizza I consequently chucked up) So I just about manage a portion of chips and a can of tango.
Get home at 4pm and then grab another 2 hours sleep. at 6pm my mate dave phones me to ask if I can drive him and Kev and his sound rig down to the south coast for a free party he's going to. Its at this point I remember the wasted conversation I had with him at another rave last week where i agreed to all this. so its out of bed and down to the car.
Out comes my sub box and nitrous bottle and its over to Croyden.
In go the speakers, decks, mixer, vinyl, DJs, Laser and speaker cable and on to the bumpstops goes the suspension
Down to "an undisclosed location in the UK" where my car is used as a windbreak to the outdoor party. It starts around 10pm finishes around 7am. I've been dancing on a madman all night.
As I help dismantle the sound rig I have brekfast. brekfast consists of a caffiene tablet and a can of redbull
Tired? I dont even blink for the journey back to croyden to return the DJs and equipment to their home.
What I do do when I get back home is sleep for 8 hours and then get up again for my usual sunday night meetup with my car nut friends for a "cup of tea and a chat"
Get home around midnight and sleep again.
Of course all of this means that I bounced into work at 9am come monday morning, fresh as a daisy and raring to go. Yeah right!
whole weekend on a slice of pizza, a bag of chips and caffiene drinks
Got to do it all over again next week too.

totally bolloxed.
got 3 hours sleep friday night, up at some stupid hour to get to croft, spent all day on track driving my scoob then drove home. Got to bed at 2am.
Sunday morning had a bit of a lie in then spent the afternoon bashing the crap out of the cars we would be racing monday in the charity banger race, my hands are blistered and got glass cuts all over them from removing bonded in windscreens with a lump hammer and chissel. (good therapy that)
Monday had to be up early to take my car to the garage for some tweeking, worked all day then off to the banger races and spent two hours installing safety harnesses into the cars, lumping my tool box around a muddy field, yet more blood expelled.
Drove like a nutter in the banger race, which was harder work than it looks, bloody brilliant fun! Got home at 11:30pm then waited till 2:30am for my guest to arive! Got to bed at 3am. Got up at 7:30 this morning for my first meeting with my new boss at 9am. Not easy trying to look awake after that lot.
So yes, i am bolloxed.
