Hmmm. Still not written anything, I see. I have achieved some things recently...
I got some kind of Employee of the Year accolade thing for saving paper, doing three times that for which I am paid, helping people who are paid 150% of my own wage with their job and suggesting and ultimately maintaining a small intranet. I get to go to Perth for a weekend with a girlfriend of my choice. Better than nowt and I should have a nice CV when I finally apply for something elsewhere.
Bought a flat the other week in whichI am now sitting. Admittedly I've already had to shoulder open the door after leaving the keys inside but it's still looking quite nice.
Bought everyone in my immediate family and circle (except people who have moved away, I admit) a Christmas present reasonably far in advance. It's Jungle's fault rather than mine that my sister will only get half her present this side of January 10th.
It's been at least eight months now since I last woke up sweating for no apparent reason. It's great not having the pressure of impending work, exams or essays despite all the apparent free time available to students. It'salso amazing how much money I seem to have now.
Off to turn off the radio before all the god crap for Christmas comes on. Happy present-giving time to you all. If you actually celebrate the anniversary of the birth of some form of messiah it has to be said that you're deluding yourself. Cheerbye.
