i've been listening to king missile - happy hour today. its probably not the most appropriate album to be playing when the office is swamped with the new company board members but i thoroughly enjoyed it anyway, particularly track 6.
my bi-hourly internet searches into the SARS thing have been stepped up and i am now checking the google newsite every 15 minutes for the latest developments. i know our trip is still 6 weeks away but i would just like to know once and for all if and when we are actually going on it. the major problem is that if we are going in mid may we have to get our asses in gear pretty quickly and sort out our visas. unlike the time we got visas for india (in one day on an indian national holiday) it takes at least 10 days to get a visa from vietnam and costs about $200. i really don't want to waste another $400 on a trip i might not be taking any time soon. i really need a fucking holiday. i could have done without the hassle of a terminal disease floating literally around asia. i'm sure the families of those who have died from SARS feel the same.
i'm having drinks at my place after work tomorrow. and by that i don't mean that i'm going to go home and sit alone and get pissed. there are real people coming over to my place for glass goblets of alcohol. i'm not sure how this soiree arose. one minute someone was suggesting going to a bar after work for a drink to celebrate lizzies birthday and the next people were coming to my place. what is it with people and my place? anyway, its going to take me all fucking night to clean and tidy. that should top my day off nicely!
so last night and this morning i felt like shit. or rather more like shit having a bad day. the CG (...jeez, my fucking pin board just fell off my office wall and nearly crushed me to death!! well it might have hurt me a bit...if it had actually hit me. it made me jump and squeal though...). ok where was i...the CG decided that the way to feeling better was "working at home" one day next week and setting the alarm for the usual time and then relishing the fact that we could stay in bed and spoon. since working at home is an impossibility for me i booked a vacation day for next thursday.
i've been reading about dictators today. hands up all those who think Ceausescu was a vampire.
