Friday Evening

Yeah yeah, I know, inspiration as usual for the title. Hey, it's just after a half chicken meal from Red Rooster, high humidity in the high twenties, a twinge of a headache and not enough sleep at all the past week, and of course the numb feeling I get away from work (I swear I put too much effort into that place LOL), I'm fine without inspiration LOL.

Work has been it's usual week in week out procession the last few weeks - I love talking to customers, but to keep that buzz going for five minutes after a call, let alone all the way to home so I can blog about it LOL, here's hoping. Doing a mini shift around due to one of the team leaders resigning and not being able to hold off any longer on the fitting three teams into two thing. Seriously, we were strewn across half the floor when we could fit quite comfortably into a quarter LOL. The only switcheroo team wise that hadn't been signalled was SW coming back into my team after a quite sociable four months in the other section. Hmm, hope that propinquity (love that word, it means being close to each other, a la all the fantasy (with dragons, not sex toys LOL) novels around where a young scullion meets up with a princess and they like each other heaps - like the Elfstones of Shannara or what I am currently reading, Tad Williams Memory Sorrow and Thorn) helps SW get over the bitterness she has towards the place and particularly the permanent staff at the moment...

I switch desks so that not only am I in the quad/pod (open plan, I'm sure you get the idea) nearest the door, but also close diagonally to the boss - closer than I have been to this point, but only cosmetic changes to the team, and fingers crossed will be in the heart of it all again. All of it as in gossip central LOL, and bleah will also have to appear more committed in my work LOL.

Oh, I'm going to be an uncle sometime over the weekend - my brother's girlfriend is going to have her pregnancy induced tomorrow evening. First addition to my immediateish family for over twenty years (since my sister) so it's pretty big, but eh, it's not at the forefront of my mind or anything LOL...

Just watched Planet Of The Apes again, the Charlton Heston version, and was thinking how awesome it would have been to actually not know the ending of that movie before watching it. Think it could have been like the Sixth Sense or the Usual Suspects or the Crying Game (not that I have watched the latter, but I have heard how it ends LOL) times ten in impact. And yeah, I do have a soft spot for sci fi movies LOL...

Think it will be Motorcycle Diaries at the movies this weekend - although Hotel Rwanda comes out this weekend as well, and I have heard good things about it, and it's likely to be cut before Ray Aviator Alexander LOL. Eh, Motorcycles is the most endangered though, only one session a day over the weekend... and in town as well, so a bit more of a trek than to the mall...

Laters peeps, falling asleep into the keyboard here :)
