dammit. i lost another one :D
last weekend:
parties - the tone was set by a rather crap one early friday night. the second party was alright, but i'd lost the mood already. if i'd had it to begin with.
on saturday i had lunch at her parents, and it was REALLY nice. surprisingly so, hence the CAPS.
sun:
we had to work late, until just after midnight. that about covers the entire day. i think.
mon:
i met up with a friend of a friend for a business-type startup-thingy meeting. it was educational. i love the idea, i don't think i'll be able to dedicate myself enough. got to arrive late to the base, just in time for lunch - i'm getting good at that :)
tues:
spent the morning at the clinic, for blood tests. it was kinda scary, they needed rather a lot of blood, and she kept wiggling the needle around to get more. it kinda hurt.
in the evening, unless i'm very much mistaken, my old / new bosses gave me a ride home, bringing a pc for me to use. i started working on the project, which is basically a resurrection effort - not so simple as i've never worked in these environments before... but i'm learning.
yesterday was just another day. lots of arb work, and a lesson at the end from the prick who's been riding my case the last while. it was a bit irritating, but we learned a lot, and he's almost gone.
YEAH.
finished off the day at the dance bar; drank a little too much...
today was quite alright. i still had to get up early... but i dropped off my laundry, and got sorted out at the bank (deposited a cheque - i can eat this month!). i had a tiny, tiny croissant, with an average cup of coffee, and then my new / old boss picked me up, and we went to the tax office.
which was SO much simpler with someone there to explain. got everything sorted out super-quick, and then sat down for coffee (with real croissants), to talk about the work. turns out i'm now getting a base-salary, with extra depending on the size of the projects... so basically contracts, but better.
YEAH.
the rest of the day was spent doing QA... it kind of sucked, but i did get moments of figuring cool shit out. i *WILL* learn to play with the oracle demon.
i've been at work since 6ish, and it's now 23.45, or thereabouts... there's a lot of us working, hopefully it won't be too interesting.
and i feel the weekend.
a story about a man making his dreams come true... but with all the interesting bits left out.
