Jul. 19th, 2011 11:00 amToday is one of those days that make you wish you'd stayed home. Not due to anything bad happening at work (it's not even 10.00Am yet, so that's a relief) but it's all grey outside and it's been raining all morning - it looks like we fired Summer and jumped directly to Autumn - and I'm cold and tired and, really, that kind of weather is for staying home with a cup of cocoa and something good on the telly or a good book to read.
The good news is that, as of yesterday, our university closes at 6.00PM sharp so even if we wanted to, we couldn't do a lot of overtime *approves* Plus, you know, I'm on holiday next week so I might be tired today but in my head I've already started conting down the days and that is a great feeling.
I'll have to be disciplined and finish writing my thesis during the summer but I'm impatient to do so and really motivated (especially now that I've received the encouraging and enthusiastic feedback from my supervisor regarding the first chapter I sent her) so I think it'll be done with a minimum of tears. Note that I'm expecting some tears, just hopefully not too many lol
Plus, I'm really looking forward to my break: three days in London with Cookie and her mates followed with four days in Alsace with part of the FP and then later in the month two days in Frankfurt to see Panic! at the Disco with another combination of the FP (permutation is the spice of life and everything *g*) and Cookie. Should be fun :-)
PS: Ahaha, I stole a kiss from the girlfriend in the corridor and as my lips were leaving hers, one of our co-workers got out of his office; I thought they were all away lol Technically, I'm pretty sure everyone knows we're a couple even though we've never said it as such - we talk about "the bedroom" and "the study" and when asked about our vacation plans we haven't hidden the fact that while I'll be in Alsace, she'll be in Brittany with my parents, so, you know, we might as well spelled it out but, obviously, we avoid any kind of PDOA at work. Then again, I let a chérie slip the other day. But we weren't close to anyone so it went unheard. We like to live dangerously, see? :-p]
ETA: Oh and I don't know if you heard but XMFC has been nominated at the Teen Choice Awards in the (among others) Choice Movie Chemistry category. Honestly, best nomination for XMFC ever Y/Y?
