Rate this Entry
hey everyone!
Sorry i havent been on for the last week. Had a very very busy week what with work, and doing up my bedroom, which now feels like a room and not an institute, dull and lifeless. Also the new Harry Potter book has keep me away! wonderful but shame about the epilogue!
We had the launch at midnight(fri 20th goingto 21th) which i was supposed to supervise but alas, i ended up in work for 5am instead. The shops i work in had gotten three pallets of the book, approx 3500 copies. when i was leaving work on sunday i'd say we had around 600 left! We had a special offer where when you bought the book you got a copy of Mister Monday by Garth Nix free, and each book was placed in an Orange Bloomsbury Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows bag.
today is the first day ive been able to relax for over a week! I'm on the brink of exhaustion and am back in work tomorrow for another four days then off for the weekend. Some of the girls from work and i have been planing that if the weather permits we are going to go to a beer garden on sat and have a nice day lounging. But like i said...if the weatrher permits! today is day 55 with rain after all!
I've never seen it this bad in my life! I mean its supposed to be the middle of summer and yet i'm still carrying a coat, hat and umbrella around! (i blame that blasted song by Rihanna, Umbrella. Hasnt stopped since that came out! Jinxed us!)
Anyway! Enough of my ranting! How are you?

    Hey Niamh, good to see you, I wondered where you had hidden yourself. Duh, I should have known about the Harry Potter craze keeping you busy, you work in a bookstore and all! Do try to have some leisure and some laughs with your friends. It'll do you a world of good. As for me, things are great, but the temperatures are crazy hot -- it is 32 degrees Celcius but with the humidity, it becomes 'like 42 degrees Celcius' (according to the man on the radio). Help I shall duly melt!!

    Hi Niamh! I've been praying about you and your break-up. Do I need to stop? Whatever happened with that? I don't mean to be nosy but I don't want to be out of date (God might get tired of me praying for outdated stuff). I'm glad you're back. I missed ya. - C
