Work Shmork...
This morning I woke up to howling winds and a window that looked like it was in the middle of a car washer (oooh remember those carwasher days, what fun, if not a tad hair raising). In fact I have just seen the news and there was a Tornado in London! What IS the world coming to?? Thankfully I brought a big golfer's umbrella while going to the Luas, but Sod's law, I think the clouds said to themselves "Oh she's coming and she has an umbrella, abort the rain! ABORT THE RAIN". So the weather behaved itself nicely for a change, while I lugged this umbrella, my laptop and a host of other random things to the station. Needless to say, the wind piped up just as I left the house, trying its best to distract me from my mission. Well they need to try better then that!
Todays work was long to say the least. Putting together the event packs is so tedious, and a job that can't be done quickly. I then worked on powerpoint transferrring information. Bascially all you want to read about in my blog. The building I work in is an old Georgian house, and when the wind blows, the house shakes.
On the way home, I had the mortifying experience of having my umbrella turned inside out at the (packed with people) luas station. I don't think people would hav noticed had I not shreaked 'ooo no! My umbrella, ahhh my umbrella' in a high pitched squeak. I was wearing my super skinny jeans and must have looked a right sight, under this huge brolly. A friendly, obliging security man helped pull down the umbrella much to the amusement of my fellow passegners.
Having had a lot of trouble sleeping last night, I am already in bed and its 9.30pm. Thankfully that pain in my tummy (pesky heartburn and reflux that mysteriously can emmigrate into my lungs at times..) has passed though, and am bright and breezy ready for what tomorrow brings. And as EILEEN knows, I am not one to complain, isn't that right??! HELEN,(aka '...') I shall tell you all about my job when I see you! Oh here's a tip, wherever you are tomorrow, you WILL need an umbrella at 3o'clock! Why? Because I'm having a driving lesson then of course!
