Have I told you about my new workplace? It's a nice enough place - keeps me off the street, anyway. It's a bit drab around the edges - but that's ok: they're planning on refurbishing it. It'll be a bit inconvenient to have the painters and decorators in once a month, but at the end it'll be very nice. Wish I could say the same about my colleagues' English - they write incredibly long run-on sentences - lots of semi-colons and commas - I keep saying how we need more periods, but do they listen? Worse, I'm the only marxist, so there's only little me flying a red flag. Still, the christmas dinner will be fun - we're going to go out and paint the town red.
I'm looking forward to my holiday, even so. I'm going to go out to Reegen - it's a cool town, and it's got some lovely architecture in the modern part. Thing is, it's difficult to find a cheap hotel in East Regen, so I'll stay by the station and walk over each day. Well - it's more exciting than last year: going down to London with Fanny and listening to The Hormones.
I've finally got a TV, too - which is pretty nice. You know how there's always dodgy sports on late night TV? Last night it was the internation clown olympics, featuring an eight-way showdown at the climax. Myself I was really pro jester one, cos he wasn't wearing white, but number five stole the title in the end - little bleeder.

I'm not really here Posted Nov 26, 2001
I was about to say something here about Lucinda being (well, watching TV) but I think I'll go and say it to Peta instead.
