Well, a lot has happened in the last little while. We moved into the new spot on Saturday, so there are plenty of boxes (empty, halfway and full) all over the show. Most of the furniture has been moved into their proper spots, so at least we can walk around the house without too much of a hassle.
Barrick has made an offer to purchase Placer Dome, whom I work for. This is concerning, since a takeover means loss of jobs. Especially in our case, since we're just a satellite office. So I'm a teeny bit nervous. But I did submit my CV around a bit, I'm quite positive that I'll get something with ease considering my yonks of experience.
I've been wanting to change jobs anyway, get out of the Placer world. They've been good for me, but 7 years at the same place with the same people gets a bit much after a while! So this might just prove to be a blessing in disguise.
In the meantime, I also have to find a rehearsal room for the band now. My parents have sold their plot, and they will be outta there end of January. So that means we won't have anywhere to rehearse! I've been chatting with another band, and they're keen on sharing a room with us if we help soundproof the place, which I think is an awesome deal to cut, since we'd like a soundproof rehearsal room very much indeed!
Been meeting some friends for drinks on Wednesdays, it's been helping a lot for the stress and whatnot. I never knew how important it was to have other male friends, and no woman around sitting in on the conversation. It's very relaxing, I get home and I feel great. Then the next morning, it feels okay to be at work, instead of me wanting to bash my boss' head in with a broken off lead steam pipe. Yes, I am that creative when it comes to assault and grevious bodily harm...
Random thought of the day: It only takes one fart to clear an entire room of people. Sometimes the smallest of things can yield the coolest results.
