la la la

I just passed up the oppertunity to go on a tour of Electric House. Sounded kinda boring, plus I'm not sure I'm upto walking around a large building in the heat yet.

I'm sitting here making my way through a large pile of Change of Addresses and also a small Petis Filous (my morning snack-thing) and very nice it is too.

Stella is in today so nothing is relaxed at all, such is the effect she has on us. She's been up to see management about my leave (referred to her as "this mess") and I know a descion has been come to, but she's not told me what it is. I think she's waiting to talk to Peter but he's at the doctors getting his longterm conjunctivitus looked at again (how long term is clear when you know this was a "thing" before I went sick a month ago). ANyway, it's not so bad, cos Stella is going home at 1:30pm today. Yay!

I learnt a new skill today - the Valubles Book. Not exactly exciting, but it does add some variety to my day. Also faxed confirmation of reciept to the refugee council but nearly sent my time sheet with it by accident. Think I just about avoided that :)

Gateway crashed again this morning, I don't think it likes the heat (and I think its fan is dead [but not sure :}] which makes matters worse). Left it off for 2 or 3 hours tho and it seemed to recover, still, I think a new gateway (more stable) gateway will have to be brought when I have the money (could be a few years :( )

Ugh, more tired today that I've previously been and I'm supposed to be staying later. It's probably cos my sleep has been disrupted by the heat. Makes me feel quite washed-out :(

Anyway, I should go and do some more work now before someone yells at me, or stella catches me, or both.

Bed Time

It's my bed time now and I can't say I'm sorry. It's been a hot day, not as hot as yesterday, but still hot. Went home from work at 3pm, the latest I've worked since coming back to work on Tuesday, and I was truly tired at the end of it. I had a nap on the floor at mum's work, where I was waiting for it to be time for her to go home. I've been fighting tiredness ever since, but have managed to make it to a reasonable time before giving in to sleep.

I don't think I'll get paid for the time I've had off sick. My EO was bitching about it to someone from management earlier and my HEO looked like he was ready to admit defeat before a round was fought, so my illness has gone and cost me nearly £1000. It's just not fair, I didn't ask to get Glandular Fever and now because of it I won't make enough money this year to pay the things I need...I guess I'll find out the news tomorrow :( It's not something I'm looking forward to.

Finally, Phil got his shiny laptop today and I spent an hour whenI got home wrestling with the evil that is WinXP to try and get it on the net. Finally I managed thanks to Dave, Sophie, Arc and archmoo. You're all wonderful :)

And so now, finally, to bed.
