Yaaawn

End of a long day at work in 15 minutes. I had been planning on working 8-5 today in an effort to push up my flexitime, but it seems that my development lead won't be able to help me with a problem until tomorrow morning, so it's home for me at 4pm...

I was in so early so that I could have a word with my manager and apologise for my incompetence. I booked myself onto a training course for yesterday, completely forgot about it and missed it entirely. She now has to explain to _her_ manager why she allowed this to happen (um, because I failed to follow procedure and tell her, which i'd have realised if I'd read the small print at the bottom of the "welcome to the course" instructions). She wasn't best pleased, but I could tell that she didn't want to tell me off, but wanted to get across that me messing up causes her grief. Mustn't do that again.

Anyway, I had a team meeting with my current temporary team at 9:30, and Erin's leaving at 6:30 tends to wake me up anyway (at least temporarily) and I'd been up since 6:30 yesterday, so I decided to get up at 6:30, go into work for 8:00 and get an extra hour of flex. As it is I'm not going to get that extra hour, but at least I'll be leaving work at 4pm without having lost any time.

I have no idea what I'm going to be doing with my evening, I'll have to work something later, as Erin's presumably heading off down the Tav for a few drinks. Shame nobody lives nearby.

Just spend your time online like a sad geek :-)

Or read a book in the bath.
