h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Well Tanz, how goes it? Been a while since I last talked to ya, so thought that I'd drop yo ua line to see how you is... it says that you haven't posted any messages for 3 days... are you sick or something?

Anyway, my life has become problematic... it is all described in my bloody journal... not really problematic to be truthful... the only problem is that I am too ing shy... Could you imagine that? Moi? Shy? You'd better believe it... it is a curse that has been haunting me my entire life...

Ooh, and I have some new casuals who work with me... which is great except for one small little thing... They ALL know exactly who I am, and I have no ing clue who they are, what their names are... anything. I mentioned that to one of my bosses tonight and he told me (jokingly) that it is part of the new training program for the new people. "Don't make Natai angry." It'd be quite funny if that were the case, but I highly doubt it... It is probably due to one of my other managers who will go to lunch and tell all of the casuals that if they have any problems to "go see Natai." I am only a bloody casual myself, and I have been there a lot shorter time than many of the others... If they are going to give me any responsibility, they can atleast increase my pay, don't you think?

Anyway, enough whinging for now... don't be a stranger Mummy drop us a line.

Natai

Hey Nat, how goe sit !

Sorry I didn't get back to you for a while, I've been home sick...oh bliss...oh joy...

And you know what, I can believe that you're shy! I myself am painfully shy half the time and ridiculously social at other times...it really depends on whether or not I believe the other person feels more uncomfortable than I do !!

I must get into your journal after I get through catching all the people who've missed me in my absence (I am much loved, you know !)...things here are wierd, but they're always weird...and hey, a convent's still an option for me...not much of an option, but an option none the less !

I always get a little freaked out when people know my name and I don't know theirs...I mean, it was bad enough when I started working here...and they all knew who I was (my Mum works here ) and I spent a good two months smiling and nodding...luckily I've always been great at being friendly to people without making it obvious that I don't know their names...helped immensely by the fact that I call everyone son or princess anyway !

...but it does get creepy when the new guys AT THE PUB know you're name ! It's a bit like a small country town...and I think they learn if they need help to look out for me or my girl, because we're always there and know where everything is and who everyone else is !
