The Importance of Being Idle

No More Star Wars!

For the first time since Episode III came out, I'm sad there's no more Star Wars.
The other night I was dreaming about the 'Wars, and dreaming the next movie (as I so often used to do), and when I woke up I started wondering what was gonna be in the next one, when I remembered that there wasn't going to BE a next one. Which is good in some ways, 'cos at least we won't get another Phantom Menace! But in every other way is bad, 'cos even Phantom had it's moments (Qui-Gonn, Darth Maul, pod racing, the duel of the fates).
Work's obviously been taking up a lot time, even though the hours are pretty regular. It's surpringly tiring sitting about learning all day, and even though we do a little bit of vetting work at the end of the day, I still don't really feel like I've done a full days work.
I think we're a pretty good group at work, with one exception, who I won't name. But we all know who it is. Seriously, it's getting to the stage when we're just wanting him to just fuck OFF and leave us all alone. I know that's wrong, I know that no matter how irritating he is, he's a person with feelings, hopes, dreams, the whole nine yards. But he is just such an annoying prick we can't help it.
Me and Ronnie went out for a lovely meal last night, at an Italian restaurant called Prezzo. Actually, we went there last week too, but it was so nice that we wanted to go again this week. I'm sure if we could afford it, we'd do it every week!
And maybe we will be able to afford it soon, 'cos next week (next Friday to be precise) is my first PAYDAY! Woohoo! And that weekend is a Bank Holiday weekend too, so that's a three day weekend as well! I think we've got to go to a party at one of Ronnie's friends house, which I'm not wildly keen on, but I expect I'll survive. I'd just not go at all, except I can't really do that without being rude. I just don't like parties, that's all.
