Thanks to Matt and Sam for both sharing the good news with me!
I saw Morcheeba on Sunday. They were BRILLIANT. This is a video version of my new favourite summer song:
Today, Dean said this to me:
"You really need to find a dude of decent height and with a working cock."
That may be the most insightful thing anyone has ever said to me.
He's a secret genius that boy.
So, I've been in my shiny new job for a week now. And well, it's FUCKING BRILLIANT.
Although there are some things I have noticed about working in an office again:
- I still really like Prets Ham and Egg Bloomers. But their soup is not as good as I remember.
- I'm not used to working a full day anymore. I'm a bit shit at this. I liked having my lunch and watching Neighbours at the same time. But Harold is apparently leaving this week so I don't think I'll watch it as much now anyway.
- People in my office don't talk. When they do, it can often be by messenger. After working in offices where you practically got a pay rise for making a lot of noise, this feels very strange.
- I like having a structure to my day.
- I *really* like being a worker bee for half the week. But I also like being a creative butterfly for the other half of the week too.
- I don't work Mondays. Brilliant. I actually do hope you're all jealous.
So, there. Some thoughts about my office. I'm enjoying it and I like the people I work with. I feel like I do something useful with my day instead of sitting in bed typing on my blog and watching This Morning with a cup of tea (exactly what I'm doing now by the way).
But yes, things are good. Things are happy. Although everyone around me seems to be just as bewildered about how quickly things turned around as I am. But they're pleased that things are good and shiny too. I remember having a very drunken conversation with Virgil about that. And many other things.
So yeah, while I'm really enjoying being in bed with tea right now, I'm also looking forward to going back into the office tomorrow.
This is bloody brilliant:
Told you so.
