I Couldn't Resist...

I just typed out the most pointless blog ever. And then decided to scrub it and start over. I'm out of the office and on my own with a nice laptop so really I'm just making conversation out of boredom.

It was my 23rd birthday a couple of weeks ago, I had a lovely day for my actual birthday (despite being at work - my colleagues bought me a watering can, and some mini gardening tools, and we went out for lunch) and in the evening I opened lots of presents and we all had some lovely cake that my wonderful fella made me. Then on thursday he took me out for dinner at TGI Fridays (where else?? Thank god though, he didn't tell them it was my birthday!). Then on Friday I treated myself to new hair and headed to my parents (via the garden centre with Gemma to pick up my new herb garden :D) More presents awaited me at home, and then preparations began for the party. The idea was to have a BBQ at my parents' new house, followed by a night out (ish). It had rained all week and the outlook for the weekend was rain, strong winds, thunder, lightning, hailstones, plagues of locusts, the lot. But as it turned out it was gorgeously sunny all day, with a 5 minute spell of rain about half way through the 'do. I even got to wear my maxi-dress without ruining it too much (ok so the hem is now green... and I somehow managed to snap both of the straps... but meh) So the party was great and in the end we didn't bother to go out, and just stayed in and played Ring of Fire instead. Good times.

So now my birthday's over all I have to look forward to now is my holiday in August - how excited am I right now!! I get paid twice before then as well which is sweet. In the mean time, work is pretty hard, lots and lots of massive projects going on and a lot for me to catch up on. People still assume I get the summer holidays off because it's a college - let me tell you, even the lecturers don't get time off in the summer!! No one does - just the lucky git kids. Wish I'd made the most of the summers when I was younger now.

That's about all there is to say at the moment. I should try and get on here more often cos then it would stop me blogging too much in one go and boring the hell outta everyone. Anyway back to work!
