I've done little since I last updated, and hence I have nothing to say. I'm planning to go to London at the weekend for a little Christmas shopping, but other than that my plans for the next few days aren't that thrilling either. And so...

( Cut for randomosity )

So I'm back - another country visited, another airport successfully navigated, another stereotype reinforced. My lasting impressions of Helsinki? Fir trees, grey skies, nice people, ugly buildings and cold winds. I wish I'd taken a hat (although then my hair would have been messed up ( Read more... )

Weekend has been good if short. Was nice to see Louise, and the walk through Greenwich market was very cool. Had a nice lunch too. Today I had a *very* long lie-in, to catch up on lost sleep, then watched football and played on the computer all afternoon. Very relaxing. Finland tomorrow - my driver will pick me up at 7:45!!

But now...

Today's update: Managed to get through my first week back at work without really doing much. But noone seemed to notice, so it's all good. I'm off to London tomorrow to visit Louise. Might even check out Greenwich market for potential Christmas gifts, whilst I'm there.

And now, a look back at my wonderful two weeks in Austin:

Seeya when I get back.

...you dreamed about trying to find somewhere to take a nap

...you wake up 45 minutes after your alarm goes off

...you can't remember if you had your eyes open for the drive to work

Yes, folks, it's 9:48am and I've already had enough of today. Roll on tomorrow.

Ever wake up with that feeling that, today is gonna be a really awful day? Well, that's me today. The bad's not happened yet, but I'm waiting...

Edit: 17:53pm - Actually today sucked till lunchtime, and then got better. And now I even have something to look forward to in the evening. So yay - all (mostly) good again.
