is it home time yet?

Things that have been done since I last wrote:

- Car has been serviced (plus wheel alignment)
- Bathroom painted
- Computer is finally up and going (more RAM needed though)
- Cleared out 2nd bedroom (except desk whish is the next thing to go)
- Fixed up garden and planted plants
- Installed sensor lights in front and back of house.

Well it doesn’t sound like much but it hasn’t been boring. The funniest thing was chatting to my mates g/f Brooke today, she asked about the chic situation and had a good laugh about the chicks that I have gone out with the past 6 months.

Anyways Brooke has set up a profile on RSVP for me, I didn’t ask her to she decided to do it herself. I have done net dating before but on a different site along time ago and never really had much luck, but I have made many friends from it but nothing more than that.

So yeah I don’t expect anything to happen but who knows! Since Brooke set it up for me I might have some luck!

Bring it on!

The past week has been interesting mainly with work! I found out on Tuesday when I was on my break that Mark (the guy that works the opposite shift from myself) will be working up north for 4 months. So now the Boss (Ray) and the Big Boss (Ian) are deciding on what to do!

Now this wouldn’t be an issue but they don’t want to replace Mark and are hinting at myself doing Tuesday to Saturday. This isn’t much of an issue either, the biggest thing is what hours do I work? Now they want someone to work till 7:30pm and for me this is a big issue.

If I were to work till then I wouldn’t be able to make it to salsa till 8pm and frankly that really isn’t good enough. I have spoken to many people about this and they agree with me but all I’m getting at the moment is “we will talk about it later”. I made it known that I’m willing to work to 6:30pm and no later, but with the way Ray has been acting in the past couple of months I think I will be having to look after myself.

Ray’s attitude of not being a Yes man has gone and frankly I don’t really trust him at this point in time, which right now isn’t something that I really needed. If I were to work late then it makes going out after work a lot harder! What happens if I want to go out on a date? There isn’t much time to go home and get ready.

The worse thing is being kept in the dark about it all and with this company they have a tendency to stab you in the back when you least expect it. Yeah it isn’t a great time to be working here, we currently have over 150 jobs going because they don’t treat there staff with the respect that they used to.

Well it’s pretty much wait and see and hope for the best, right at this moment! One things for sure I wont be going down without a fight!

friday!

Well Im currently at work at its just past 6pm, have only been back at work 2 days and it feels like alot longer! I have the weekend shift for the next few weeks (oh yay!) but the good thing (and only) about working the weekend is that its generally pretty damn quiet.

Sooooo like right now I try and think of things to do, unfortunatley going home isnt an option just yet but if it remains this dead then Im thinking going home slightly early wont be to bad. One thing that has been annoying me the past couple of weeks is my right foot. About 4 yrs ago I injured it playing basketball and every now and then it would play up but nothing to bad.

Well the past week it has been gradually getting worse and trying to do salsa has been very hard, most the time i can cope with the pain but when I have to put pressure onto the front of my foot (as you do when you have to do a hook step) then it friggin hurts. So it has got me thinking about the amount of times I have had to endure pain for sport or just going out.

Thankfully I have never had a any broken bones but playing sport has been hard at times, so far I have managed to annoy my parents and many ex g/f's by playing with a sprained ankle (or both), injured lower back, a virus (to many times to mention), sprained fingers (on both hands), a sprained wrist, an injured shoulder, bloody sore hamstrings, one injured foot (as mentioned b4), ingrown toe nails (the reason why I had one toe nail permanently removed), an injured right knee (this eventually stopped me from doing TKD).

These were just the main ones as I wont worry about mentioning all the soft tissue injuries.. maybe its just old age catching up or the lack of gym time in the past 6 months (hopefully the latter) but I really gotta get healthy and get this gym room set up!
