flown by

this week has flown by. i can remember waking up on a cold and dark monday morning and thinking that friday was a long way away, and now here comes friday and its the weekend in a few hours.

work is ok and maybe its because my resistance is low, but for the first time since i got here, which is almost a year to the day, i got annoyed for the first time. have spent the last couple of days dealing with EMC and HP engineers in india, or wherever they are and i just keep getting sent round in circles. i hate chasing shit up like this and spending half my day listening to hold music. this is what i used to do all day at the last bank i worked at and i hated it.

i have little patience for this at the best of times but in january and february its just asking for trouble.

i am also having to deal with some guy here who keeps asking my about the SAP system we have in place. who fucking died and made me the SAP king all of a sudden. got off my back dude. sometimes you just do stuff to help people because its no bother and most of the time people are grateful, but this guy just keeps coming back to me over and over again about stuff. give me a break mate. i have got other shit to be doing.

anyways like i mentioned i have been here now for 1 year almost to the day. my first year here has not been too stressful or eventful and its been fine. if the last couple of days are going to be indicative of what the rest of this year will be, then i need to hope that i escape soon. i applied for another job this afternoon. i am constantly applying for other jobs if i see anything interesting.

nothing planned out of the ordinary for this weekend. gym and cycling mostly. have slowly been ramping up my training the last week or two. i peaked around the beginning of december and then i let things slide. am coming up to a good level again in the last couple of sessions. strangely enough it matches up roughly to the times i take exams and am studying. when i study, i train harder. when i don't read and study i tend not to train as hard. coincidence?. i doubt it.

have a lovely weekend.

today i have mostly been listening to angels and airwaves - hallucinations. this is the first single from their new album that comes out sometime next month. i don't think its as good as anything on their first album, but its a good tune.
