Still in the office

Today is a beautiful spring day in Northern Ireland, the temperature is at about 22 degrees celcius and I can hear the birds chirping in the trees. It is all good. I have just decided that Spring is my favourite season. With all the promise of summer ahead. I am looking forward to the summer. I think it is going to be a good one. Especially because Conor and I are getting married. Yeah!

I'm in my office, which I have all to myself. Its a little room off a long corridor in porta cabins, next to the chief's office who I am secretary for. I have not really got much to do. Infact today I was given some typing to do, and that was the most I have worked in the 5 days I have been here. It was just a three paragraph long letter. After I had finished a few other people came in and gave me things to do and I got a bit flustered because when I have more than one thing at a time I get really paranoid that I am going to forget something like informing some people that they have been offered a grant for £500,000 or something. Imagine that! A grant is being offered to you but you don't know about it because of some bad secretary somewhere who doesn't care.

My new favourite hobbie is:

singing karaoke in a room with friends. Except I prefer it when they don't grade you on your singing, because then I get comptitive and then I get a bit sad because the machine tells me very bluntly that I am a not a good singer. For some reason I am in delusion a lot of the time and like to think that I have this great voice and I am an undiscovered superstar singer waiting to break out. For real, I am not that.
