Playing it Cool

22 January, 2008

It’s in no way confirmed.

The prospect however excites me more than I’d care to admit to my work colleagues.

I will however tell you all how I feel.

Inside I’m jumping up and down, doing backflips and singing happy tunes at the top of my voice.

Outward appearances are slightly different thought – Chilled, nonchalant, business-like.

I don’t want to get too built up about it before it’s actually confirmed.

So what the hell am I talking about?

Well there’s a high probability that I’ll be working in another European country with a much nicer climbate than the UK for a few months! Summer could start much earlier for me, and for a change I’m not being sent to the danger zone!

Everything that can possibly be crossed is crossed

I even allowed myself to scope out the scene there online tonight…

New Year Blues

3 January, 2008

The forecast snow didn’t arrive here in the south of England last night

I love snow, it makes me calm and happy.

I arrived back in England for New-years eve.

I got preposterously drunk, but from what I can remember I had a fantastic night on New years eve at a friends masquerade party… right up to the point where everything went black and hazy just after 3am.

I’d never experienced black and hazy before… I usually remain strangely lucid while drunk.

I don’t know whether to blame the Mojitos, the Pink Champagne, or the super strong vodka coke that followed when the rum ran out.

I have sworn off alcohol for the foreseeable future.

My hangover only really cleared last night.

I’ve decided to try living to a budget, rather than spending everything, so that I can possibly afford to buy my own place later this year.

I have some other resolutions too… but I’m not sharing them all.

Ohh… and to top things off; My Mum has just called to tell me they’re snowed in with over a foot of snow.

Damn… and still not a bloody snowflake here.

On that light and cheery note… Happy New Year Everyone!
