At Work...

Amelia came to see me for lunch. Too bad I couldn't stay long. I miss spending time with her. Will never forget the uni days when she waited with me for my evening class.

She also has a health 'condition'. It's pretty much as bad as mine. However, instead of getting red and itchy, she gets really sick every month. Fortunately she won't have to have an operation but she might have to take medicine. What is it with girls my age? The majority have one health problem or another. At least, I'm not alone.

The director was supposed to have a meeting with the big director about the extension of my contract today. She did but she didn't say anything to me. Which could only mean two things - she didn't have time or the big director didn't give her an answer.

Meanwhile, I have created quite a reputation for myself. All my workmates now think that I know and can do everything. When I mentioned I learnt piano (as part of the conversation), one woman said, "What don't you do?!" And people for whom I've been doing work are now writing Eve and the director emails about how great my work is. Eve forwarded them to me. Can't describe how good that feels. (Although I don't want it to get to the point where people become envious and don't socialise with me.)

Was so happy I didn't have to go to my second job today. I made brownies for David's birthday tomorrow. I hope he likes them. Still haven't gotten him an anniversary present. I wanted to get him a book/CD that teaches POBian because he said he'd like one (and he got me a couple of Spanish ones) but I'm having problems finding good ones. Just don't want to get him something generic like a T-shirt. Want to get him something special.

Can't wait till Friday. I really can't. We'll be spending the whole evening and night at a 5 star hotel room (because everyone at his work got one for free). And of course it'll be mostly innocent. Just spending time together in a comfort of a warm room and not freezing cold outside and without any family interruptions.

I hope I can find out tomorrow whether my contract will be extended or not so I can just put my mind into one frame and can enjoy the weekend.
