graveyard girl

i have a sore throat and a headache and that thing where your eyes hurt. am not well. lets hope this is not the onset of swine flu but ain't been anywhere near mexico recently. its probably not. the sudden change in the weather is the reason i think. it was warm and sunny on sunday and freezing cold and wet on monday. 

i watched chelsea v barcelona on tv last night, and i thought chelsea were terrible. it finished 0-0 but all chelsea did was get 10 men behind the ball and kick barcelona. it was anti-football. a terrible advertisement for the premier league, if this is one of the top teams and they choose to play like that. what an embarresment. surely they can't be so negative in the home leg next week. my team, arsenal are playing tonight. i would rather lose than employ the chelsea tactics and get a draw. 

only 2 more days to get through and then its the weekend and i can recouperate and hopefully get better. actually its a long 3 day weekend which is even better. 

had a contract review meeting and my boss seemed quite happy with my work which is good. just got to keep things going i guess. 

met up with a guy that still works at the internet company i used to work for. same old stories but with different characters. idiot tech boss is still there and still whining about shit but not actually doing any work. its nice to hear these stories from a distance and not be involved in it any more. its less than 2 years since i left that place.  i have had 4 contracts since then, 3 of them investment banks. been to california twice, drove across america, done 12 exams and got a fat pay rise. leaving that place was the best thing i ever did. its nice to not have even the slightest twinge of regret. 

look after yourself V.

today i have mostly been listening to M83 - graveyard girl. enjoy
