return pay

the end with the evening ride pissing me off, but until then it was all good. he aggravated me because he talks shit, and the specific shit he was talking was particularly stupid and pointed in a rather irritating direction, and he wouldn't let go. he told me i should request that the army docks my pay because they're not letting me get much actual work done.

after spending yesterday evening doing serious nothing, i strapped on blades and joined the group just as it began to drizzle. the drizzle let up just in time for us to decide to move anyway ^_^
the group was great, the route was chilled and i felt like i got good, healthy exercise. i even got in a second round in the underground parking lot, and stopped with the rest for a beer at some crazy bar before coming home.

i wasn't at all tired after showering, so i finally uploaded photos from the holiday while watching the beginning of mega shark vs giant octopus, which as just as silly as i anticipated and i've now stopped watching in the hope that someone will join me in the jeering and cheering :)

after 2.5 hours of sleep, i shaved and brushed my teeth, crawled into uniform and staggered to the bus. it was cold.
nystire and i met outside the office, and went for breakfast. breakfast was standard and we seem to have made a very bad impression on a bright and cheerful new academic officer girl.

aside from an hour or so of knowledge transfer, i spent the day reading, discovering that insanely cool gear is affordable, napping and playing with the guitar in the office. a few of us went out for hummus, which was a pleasant change of scenery.

i'm decidedly indecisive this evening. i took my hoodie to be dry-cleaned but the laundromat was closed, and now i'm just feeling iffy. i mean, everything's great and i'm confused :P
