Naps

Madonna coming down the staircase at Eurovision

I often work with a gentle, soft spoken Indian woman called Sonia on night shift.
Last night she could see I was struggling in between turns and patient checks so when I fell asleep, whilst reading some drug information , sat at the office desk . She left me a little while on tip toed feet and completed  some of our joint duties alone.
I wasn't asleep long, just enough time for the paracetmol to kick in and the cold to dry up but it was just enough to recharge and feel a little more human

This afternoon I was bright enough to play the supermarket shopping trolley game and managed to get 2 packets of nappies, a box of bran flakes, a child's paddling pool water pistol and one packet of bird seed into the trolley of a former Intensive Care nurse manager without being detected.

It was more fun than watching a re run of  Eurovision 
Madonna really needs to retire ...she was sooo crap

  2. I enjoyed the contest but can agree that Madonna should be retired into caricature, despite her gas mask protest which was the only part of her performance worth any applause.

    I cannot nap unless I am naked in bed under a blanket. My naps more often than not last hours.

  3. A good coworker makes the night that much easier. I've been put to bed with a migraine by one.

    I've also put a coworker to bed after they received a really bad bit of health news.

    Night nurses take care of each other.

    Have you tried a hot toddy?

  5. While I do enjoy Madonna, no doubt she is an artist and doesn't take any shit, and a performance artist, Their is such a thing called going out with grace. I fear she will be remembered for her hot messes, and clinging to relevance.

    Dislike her immensely, especially since the time she 'murdered' Don McCleane's American Pie, one of the greatest songs ever written!
    She is soo ova.

  7. Why was Madonna wearing an eye patch? It seems offensive to people who have lost eyes or need to wear eye patches for other good reasons. A kind of unthinking mockery.

  8. Glad to hear you are having fun, why did I buy this?

  9. I liked Australia's entry - the girls bobbing about on the end of those long poles. I can't believe I stayed awake and watched it all. Madness.

  10. I feel bad about Madonna. I mean, I was 10 when she released her first album, so I grew up with her constantly on the radio. I saw her avoid the pitfalls that took out almost all of the megastars of that period.

    I didn't like her or her music, but I respected her, if that makes any sense.

    It's hard to look at her now, let alone listen to what she's doing. It makes me sad.

    I didn't see any of the performances and that was okay by me.

    In the 5 years I worked 3p-11p in the ER, we had a great staff who were friends at work and away from work. Am glad your co-worker let you sleep a bit!

    Hugs!

  12. Naps are fundamental! Really nobody can work when sleepy. Glad you took a break.
    And have not watched Madge in Eurovision. I’m gonna hunt her down on YouTube!

  14. Poor Madonna, she was always her own worst enemy. I wonder if she is having career seizures because Lady Gaga did the one thing she could never do, be successful at acting in a movie. I just want to remind gay people that she was on our side when entertainers like boy George were still claiming to be straight.

  15. The problem is Bette had talent and Madonna has much more to do with self-promotion. I mean look at her... modeling her career after an old Lana Turner movie.

  16. Well, since Madonna is over 60 now I have to applaud her for still being able to do anything strenuous like performing on stage... even if badly! *Winks*

  17. You fell asleep reading drug information? What a surprise!

  18. I haven't seen it, but I heard Madonna was really bad...

  19. Glad that your feeling somewhat better judging by your sense of fun messing with with the former care nurses mind.

    As for Madonna, Mick Jagger and Sir Paul they have a sense of self importance thinking we are all waiting with baited breath to hear them sing, I think those days are long gone and we have moved on or at least I
    have.

  20. Tch, I see that bitch Madonna STOLE my pirate eye patch fashion look from my tin foil hat contest. She's always been jealous of me.

  22. I did like Madge's second song a lot, though I now read that it wasn't one of her best, so that maybe confirms what an out-of-touch-old fogey I am. Although I love 'Like a Prayer' (and who doesn't?) her performance lacked the 'oomph' it needed.

  23. I detest Madonna - not the human behind the persona but the concept. I think I watched her once (ages ago) and never again.

    As to some of your and other commentators' re hanging up the cloak; Whilst, to some extent, I do agree that people should age with dignity and grace you can't hold it against those used to the limelight to bask in it as long as they can. Just be grateful they are not your (grand)father/mother.

  25. I now have a vision of you creeping around a supermarket tossing things, unnoticed, with gay abandonment into the enemies trolleys.

  26. I suspect Madge has become deaf with old age and thats why she sounds awful. Trip to Boots for hearing aids me thinks

  27. I have been over Madonna for a long time now. I think the last straw for me was her "Truth or Dare" film nearly 30 years ago.
