Another new year...

So it's the end of another year.
And what's new?
The balloons on the channel logo and the year-ender programmes and the Happy News Year Sting...etc etc..the list goes on. That's what life's about now. Can u imagine - the high for us on new year's eve is - the 2005 balloons on the logo are gonna burst at midnight and the 2006 balloons are gonna be up!
On New Year's day - we sit glued to the channel...calling up office, ruining the ticker person's life by pointing out mistakes early in the morning. The same ticker person who didn't get to come to office 2 hours late on the night shift (yes the others got that much time to party and reach office)& had to sit all alone waiting for breaking news to happen (or rather not happen).
On my 4 day vacation, half of each day is spent cribbing why I'm not getting the channel here, the other half wondering if we have what other channels do...I land up at my favourite niece & nephew's place, play with them for a while and discover they're getting the channel at their place so there I am glued to the idiot box, with my niece nudging me to play with her.
And here I am, back at work after 4 days and the systems crash for 5 hours and I realise, I could have had that holiday for just a bit longer!
Ciao,
M.

Babe,

You need some nice music, some hot soup and someone to cuddle up to. Don't work so hard!!!

The implicit and erroneous assumption being, I've already found my soulmate.
