I ain't dead....

March 13th 2006, 0910B

This is just going to be a quick post to keep this thing alive until I have chance to sit down & type up something decent for it.
I'm back in SA now, & it's really good to be home, even though as soon as I walked through the door of my flat it suddenly felt as though I'd only been awy for a few days, and not 8 months. Strange.....

Anyway, for the most part I've been having a great time catching up with my friends & enjoying a life style of the idle & lazy this first 2 weeks or so I've been home. I've been a little limited in terms of transport atm, as the bike's in the shop & costing me a bloody fortune to fix, so I've not actually done as much as I'd planned since I've been home, but I should be getting the bike back in the next few days. Or at least I bloody hope I'll be geting the bike back in the next few days as relying on other people for transport is wearing thin. In fact, not having wheels of my own has precipitated a serious argument with one of my friends, Colleen from the office, as I've not had chance to see her yet & it seems she's taken that to mean that I don't want to see her. What really precipitated the fight was that she'd offered to come pick me up twice, & I'd had to say no both times because of scheduling conflicts, so I can certainly understand why she's upset. But giving me shit because of it really isn't going to help....
I'll make a plan as soon as I have the bike back, but I have a feeling things are going to be strained for a little while between us, & I really don't need the stress to be honest...

Otherwise about all I've been doing the last few days is play lots of WoW over my lovely broadband connection at home, while drinking far too much coffee & smoking cigarettes. It's a really cool game, & much more fun than I thought it'd be. The cartoony graphics took a little getting used to initially, but they've grown on me now & I quite enjoy them. Best about the game though is the social interaction side of it - you always hear about the assholes in this kind of game who ruin it for everyone, but so far I've not encountered anything like that, & in fact have found a really pleasant & helpful bunch of people.

Anyway, that's going to be it for now as I have some sorting out to do here in the flat, but I'll get back to this soon.

Cheers for now though ;)
