Thank God for that...

I have a recovery plan for this weekend. The week is at last finally over, and I am shattered.

I'm very definitely suffering from information overload, I'm going to take some notes after I have written this blog entry, detailing what I have been up to today as it progressed, otherwise all the stuff I have learned today will have faded into the background ether by the time Monday morning comes.

The plan for tomorrow is going to be one of those make or break days, tomorrow I get to meet Sandy, so far she has been witty, clever, charming and well spoken, tomorrow we get to find out if that is still true in the real world... Fingers crossed, I think I may have found the switch to the nutter magnet I usually have switched on, but you never know! :)

I shall take my leave now, exhaustion approaches, and work still needs to be done.

Good night dear reader.

I may be a little squiffy

Well another hard day at work, the end is in sight though, only one more day to do the handover of all that is pertinent from my predecessor. I think the brain is at a 50/50 grey matter to marshmallow now. With any luck I'll still have some brain tissue left for the weekend. :)

I went to my predecessor's leaving do this evening, and had a couple of pints of lager, he's flying out of Heathrow on Saturday morning, so no leaving do on the last day as would be usual. Was a good evening, had a chat with a few of the guys and gals I'm working with on a more social, had a few good laughs with the boss. Feels like I'm going to fit in just fine here.

After that I was back into my usual Thursday night routine, down the pub in Islington with Dermot and Phil. Shit was spoken and fun was had.

I saved up my food units today, and purchased a shish kebab on the way home, yum!

Day two...

Hmmm, went to bed fucked last night, then lay there awake for several hours...

Felt sooooooo good today as I pulled my second day at the new job. I'm replacing a guy who leaves at the end of this week, so I have to learn as much as I can from him, we have been going at a hella-pace for the last two days, and we have another two to go.

My brain is either overheating and being cooked from the inside, or it is turning to marshmallow.

I am soooo going to try an get some kip tonight, must reset the internal clock!

First day...

Some friendly advice...

Get some sleep the night before you start a really hard day at work in a new job, where you have to hit the ground running. Especially if you have sat on your arse for most of the last three months, and are totally out of the habit with work.

On the upside I totally stuck to my diet today. :)

Although in the downside, I have put on 14 pounds in the last two weeks. :(

Starting tomorrow....

Look, I'm back to work tomorrow right. I totally promise, the regime starts then.

(Didn't help that mumsy sent me packing for home with the biggest plate of food you ever did see!)
Dependent upon my new colleagues, I shell be having a Tomodachi lunch tomorrow!

Right early night for me...

More of the same...

A happy family day, nothing inspiring other than I took the time to enjoy it properly.

Oh, and we went to the park, I am now an official "Demon on the Swings". :)
