    you had a bad day....

    I have Daniel Powter stuck in my head. Fun.

    It's okay, the radio at work appears to have moved on to some sort of semi-rap business. Also fun. Actually, to tell the truth I don't really mind Daniel Powter all that much.

    I'm bored though. This end of the month quietness is getting to me. And workmate down the way is on annual leave today so there's not even anyone to harass. NO ONE is recieving calls today. How dull.

    Although to be fair all the calls I've taken today appear to be stupidly complicated ones. Like that require lots of follow up work. I'd like less follow up work please.

    So. It's been two months today and I'm too busy tonight to even appreaciate it properly. Hah. Oh well. Some things are more important. Like a tribute to the youth pastor heading up north for a presbyterian youth conference. WHY do videos take so long to edit???? Gutted. BUT it does look mighty fine. I'm enjoying it. And I'm almost done, so hopefully I'll get a LITTLE time with the boy tonight.

    As in more than half an hour - which is about the sum of the time I've spent with him this week. Time is so hard to find these days...

    Yeah, life is all just drama. I can't wait till NEXT weekend because I think I've got the monday off. Yay!!!!

    ruminations

    I'm thinking about going back to uni. Not right now. But at some stage, maybe next year or the year after. Before I get too old anyways. I've just been thinking about what I'd like to study etc and I've ended up looking at the MAud (again!). I was too late to apply last year. And there's no guarantee that they'll accept me if I apply.

    But it looks really interesting. And it's helping people - which is also a good thing. It's really specialised and I've always been somewhat anti specialised fields, but yes. I miss studying. Hah. Who would've thought???

    Work is deathly quiet today. Okay, maybe not deathly. But I just can't focus on anything because I'm fidgity and trying not to think too much. I think I'm having commitment issues. Or fear issues or something. :P

    Argh.

    friday, fabulous friday!!

    **** note: the title of this post is an unconscious (or conscious) not towards the fantastically, fantabulous song that Ali and I wrote last year on 40hour famine night. *****

    It's friday. Yay. Note the lack of enthusiasm. You know why this is? Because we're not at the end of friday yet. And I've had some horrendous calls at work today. Seriously. There was the woman who put me through to her boss because her half pallet of paper had been delivered downstairs and the mainfreight man wouldn't bring it upstairs and they are an "extremely busy offise and not about to send people downstairs to pick up the paper".

    Because I am all powerful and I can get burly mainfreight men to do exactly as I tell them on a whim. Seriously.

    We're partying at work today. It's Sue's last day. :( But we do have a crapload of food hanging around our pods.

    Teehee.

    Anyway, this weekend isn't very exciting because the boy is studying. I understand that it's important and all. But I'd really like some quality time. Mainly because I haven't actually seen him since last weekend and I'm a selfish person. I'm feeling the un-love. :P And normally it would be fine because we're both insanely busy at the moment, but I'm not going to see him till next weekend at this rate and it won't be till the saturday and that's the other boy's 21st and while I love the other boy it does just mean time with the boy, with other people. Which is SO not quality time.

    Argh.

    Anyway. Flat/workmate is sending me some seriously strange emails. Lol. I refuse to ponder the boy situation any longer. RE-fuse. I'm going out with someone WAY more fun tonight anyway. :P

    Illness is no fun :P

    I had two days off work last week. Gutted eh? What sucks is that I'm STILL not better today but I felt obliged to come in. I've coughed on two customers so far. (Which is going to be SO bad for my quality this week...)

    On the upside it's an hour till my next break!!!

    It's been a crazy weekend. I think I slept for about 10 hours yesterday. I went to bed right after CSI at 9.30 and didn't get up till about 7.30 this morning. PLUS I'd slept for about an hour that afternoon as well. It was grand. I am feeling a bit tired now though - which is kinda scary. But I have a feeling that it's to do with the warmth in the call centre.

    AND we barn danced on Saturday night. Very exciting stuff. It was drummer-boy's 21st and Turkey Buzzard was playing. It was very, very cool. But also the reason why I think I'm sick. The rapid temperature changes - very hot when dancing and VERY cold otherwise - probably did me in. And it was a marginally late night and I'd been up for stocktake rather early.

    Which reminds me, stocktake wasn't TOO bad. Just FREEZING cold as apparently the heaters in here are on a timer and don't come on till 9am. Which was when we finished. (Naturally!) But all in all it wasn't too bad. Just a couple of hours. It was the early start that nearly did me in!

    I did sleep for ages yesterday though. (Despite my extremely LONG 3hour meeting in the afternoon!) The boy has been particularly nice. He came over last night and brought me tea, scented 3 ply tissues (!!!) and hot lemon drink. Which was rather nice of him considering he's in the midst of exam study. Bless his little cotton socks!

    It is now officially an hour and 15mins before I can go home. It is also the first full day of work I've done in about a week. Scary, I know. I was trying to look at flight prices online as the boy and I are thinking of doing a long weekend in Wellington. But I've given up as we haven't settled on dates. I'd really like to go though - it'll be relaxing :)

    And now I shall read my book.

    Picture post!!!





    Here's something to keep you all entertained for the next wee while. (When I stop being lazy and manage to actually write something of relevance...)

    Pictures from the weekend!!! Here are all the reasons I love Living Springs:


    Sunrise from Harbour View


    The harbour in all it's glory :)

    Happy leaders all on camp...

    Then came monday....AND NO WORK!!! Why? I hear you ask? Check this out!

    It freaking snowed! In JUNE! WAY too early for snow, but it still snowed!!!

    It was also very cold. Which was expected. But which also did not prevent us from having a wee bit of a snowball war...

    As you can see! Muwahaha!

    For those that were wondering

    I did go to uni last night. My night-time visits to university appear to be more frequent than when I actually was at university. Hm.

    Anyway, my arrival coincided - funnily enough - with a study break. Which was nice. We actually had to be strict on the time - which was not nice. But that's okay. So we went to McCafe (because Coffee Culture was closing) - I hadn't been there in ages. It felt weird to be there. It's so McDonalds but with real cafe stuff. Anyway, my chai latte was definately not up to standard, which I wasn't too happy about. But I coped.

    We were both so tired last night that I'm not entirely sure if any of our conversation made sense. But that's all right. It was good though because otherwise I just wouldn't see him. What with me being away over the weekend and him have a 72hour take home test and a project due Monday next week. All of which really kinda does suck. But oh well.

    I'm begining to remember why I decided way back when that I was too busy for a love life. Because I am really too busy for a love life. Now, I know that monthly anniversaries are a bit of a bum anyway - but I'm not even around for the next two monthly anniversaries I will incur. Which also kinda sucks. Actually, to tell you the truth - my weekend calander doesn't even free up till the 14th of July. July.That's like a month (less a day) away.

    How insane is that???????

    It doesn't help that the boyfriend is super-intelligent and is somehow managing to study both law and commerce as well as work part time and run his own business. I think that we're potentially both crazy.

    Oh well.

    I have a feeling that I need a holiday. It's quietened down at work again. But I'm so over customers today.

    Maybe I don't need a holiday. But I want one.

    I have decided...

    That I want to be married.

    Not just yet. But sometime soon.

    Now, this is the height of my boredom at work. I have this nice, sparkly ring that I wear on the ring finger of my right hand. Which is not the engagment finger as that resides on the left hand. Nonetheless it is rather engagement-like. I like the way it looks and want a permenant one on my left hand. Hence the desire to get married.

    Although I do confess that I feel rather young for such a commitment. I've always said that I'd like to get married at 25. A fact that I confessed to the boyfriend the other night on the way back from Akaroa. Not that it was a leading question or anything - I have a feeling that he just wanted to know.

    Now then. I have decisions to make. Do I go visit the boy at university tonight after small groups or do I just go to bed? If I visit him not, then I shall not see him till next week. A fact which I abhor.

    Hmmm....

    I get to go home in two minutes!!!!
