Hello. I didn't get time to blog again yesterday. I didn't get home until 12:30. Yes, I know, I'm a dirty stopout Still, it was oddly a good night, so..I dunno. Might have to do it again sometime, but not when I've got other stuff planned for the same evening. Was a tiny bit rushed.

I rang Mena today. In future, I'm gonna ring her from my other number, as it turns out the call didn't actually fall under my contract, so I've got £25 going on top of my £35 bill XD Ah well, nevermind. It's for a good cause, I wanted to speak to her because I haven't done since Sunday, and it was a very nice conversation, though I was a bit gutted to learn that she was coming back Wednesday. Well, I say I "learnt" it, but in all truth I've just never been able to remember. I've always been told since before she left that she was coming back on Wednesday, but for some reason I've always thought that she'd be back on the Tuesday. Shame really, because I'm off on Tuesday, and I've got a driving lesson booked for Wednesday evening, so we're not going to have as much time together as I thought we would.

My first week at Specsavers is over, so I guess I can pass judgement on how its been. I've enjoyed it. Seriously. I always wondered whether I was better suited to a smaller shop, and I guess the truth is that I am. As I said a day or two ago, the job I'm doing now is a lot more important than anything I was doing at TK Maxx, as there's a very small margin of error. You can't be giving the optician the wrong information, because it makes his job harder, and that's not what you're meant to be doing.  In addition, everybody who works there are very friendly, and it doesn't seem like they're segregated into little groups of friends either, which helps me out a great deal, as it means I can get to know everybody and not feel left out.

Actually, speaking of that, I apparently have to have a Specsavers Christining, where they're gonna take me and Mike (the other newbie) out for a staff night out. I'm all for it, but I did point out that I don't drink, which may or may not have been a wise thing to say, but oh well, it's been said now. I'm sure it won't be a problem...I hope it won't be XD

Simple things amuse simple minds. I've just put a little animated GIF of Michael Jackson in a MSN window, and he's dancing in time to One More Time by Daft Punk. Bless his little pixellated heart XD

OK, so tomorrow I'm wrapping birthday presents up. It's my favourite time of the year, mainly because I'm useless at it, and it's always quite hilarious to see what wrapping I end up doing. Half the time it doesn't turn out too badly, and the other time it looks like a five year old wrapped it. It's quite funny.

Anyway, I'll tell you more about that tomorrow. Time for me to stop writing

Until tomorrow!
