Things just seem to be getting better and better recently.
I started work again properly after being off sick, feeling a lot better and (not sure if i mentioned the bruises before) nearly all my brusing has gone. I don't look like I've just done 12 rounds with Joe Calzaghe anymore! Still got blood around my eyes but i think it looks pretty cool haha.
So work sent me to Barcelona seeing as they needed someone to go to a sales conference and thought it would be a nice break for me. And it was. I would say that the sales conference was really interesting and worthwhile...but I didn't bother going.
Instead I went to the Nou Camp with another girl from work (from a different department) an we managed to get to watch a training session which was cool. We spent most of the time shopping and doing all the touristy stuff. We went to a wine and champagne factory/vineyard and she got wasted on all the free samples. So it was pretty amusing when her boss rang her later in the day to ask how she was getting on!
It's been ages since I've had any alcohol. I usually drink quite a lot so I'm surprised that I don't even feel like drinking at all. But this weekend I'm hoping to have a few drinks at a house party. I'm gonna be lightweight.
I'm kinda off the steroids now too which is good because they were making me depressed and fucking with my sleep and appetite etc etc. i'm not officially off them though...I've just stopped taking them because they really fuck me off. I'm meant to finish the prescription but I don't want to. Anyone know if that's bad idea or not?
Since being on them (for over a month nearly now) they have helped me put on just over a stone in weight. One of the reasons why I hate them so much. But I've lost nearly half a stone from hardly eating at all so hopefully I'll be back to normal soon!
What else? Oh yeah! I got the new job. Not sure when I'm starting yet, probably at the end of March so I can pick up my bonus before I leave. Really chuffed about that.
I think that's everything. Got a lot of e-mails and things to catch up on so better be off. Hope everyone is well.
PS. Not long till The Gaslight Anthem with Polar bear Club and Frank Turner. Great line-up.
PPS. I was at work while the Obama inauguration was on and I'm annoyed I missed it. But even watching the videos and looking at the photos on the BBC website I felt moved. Not sure why. It's just a really good step in the right direction I guess. Americans should fell proud today.

TOTALLY! He is amazing. I'd get so star struck if I saw him

Haha I wish I had an interesting anecdote but basically I've just always been a bit of a Japanophile and then they started running really cheap lessons at Uni. So that's that.
