Not enough hours in a day.

There aren't enough hours in a day. Well, there are just not a day where one has to go to work. It's wrong. Totally wrong. Before my new boss came i was posting maybe once a day, it's been a week and a half since my last blog. What's happened? What's changed? What's new pussycat? I'd ordinarily say "Not much", but thats not strictly true. Much has happened, the world has turned, lives have ended, new ones begun.But has anything happened in your life, you fool!? This is after all meant to be about you...

Quite.

What i was meant to be saying was how i am now addicted to The Sims. What a game! Why bother getting on with your own life when you can control other peoples. All you do is make them eat, sleep, have fun, dance, use the toilet, but it is incredibly good fun. I have already wasted a few hours of my life staring at the screen giving them long lists of tasks to carry out. Top fun.

Yeah! I had a good weekend with my family. Spent the Friday evening in my old local. With my brother and his new wife. Had a few beers, then a few vodka's. Great fun. On Saturday we made our way over to my other brother's house in Knaresborough. We went out into Harrogate for the evening which again was very pleasant. But it's not saying anything about me is it? Does it have to?

The reason i'm writing today is because my boss is out at a meeting. I have the office to myself again, like i did before he came. I can look at porn, surf the net, basically do f**k all. The only problem though is that it just makes work for me, for myself. In shirking my responsibilities i am only disadvantaging one person, me. Well thats not strictly true. I disadvanage the company by wasting their money on doing nothing and through my inability to gain new contacts and appointments i also seem to be wasting their time. But telesales is neither easy nor fun.

I have started to enjoy it a bit more though, Eric (my nu boss) is motivating me, and his presence makes me react less emotionally to the calls than i used to.

Why are you talking about work, you don't care, so why should anyone else!?!

True.

Band practice tonight though!! Come on! Should just be the bassist, drummer and me as well which will be great. I know how to play the tunes, so does Luke (bass) and John holds it all together, i've just got to get sooo much better at playing and singing. It really is a f**king chore. All i want to do is play a bit of mad piano/organ and sing. I can sing so well when i try, it's just too much when i'm tw*tting a guitar at the same time. Get some beers down me, that'll fix it!!

If you haven't seen a film called Equilibrium, please do so. It's like a British version of The Matrix, perhaps a little too much like the Matrix. But, it is really, really good. It doesn't try to be something it's not, it doesn't base itself solely on clever camera techniques and the final fight is certainly one of the most interesting things i've ever seen done with guns. One particular moment pisses all over the Matrix. When you first see Christian Bale's character utilise his fighting skills - oh my word, it's great.
