The Importance of Being Idle

Are You Watching Closely?

Been a busy week.
Training is extremely tiring, to the point that last night I came home and fell asleep for a couple of hours before waking up and having dinner. Training is going well though, I'm remembering a huge amount from last time (probably enough that I could multi-skill into claims to be honest, but if they want me to do that I'll go on training like everybody else). Overall though things are going well.
I got my pay slip today too, although the money itself doesn't go through till tomorrow and I appear to have got a £600 pay rise for moving from claims to info, which was nice. Tomorrow I'll have money in my account (or to be accurate a smaller amount over drawn) and though I shall be tempted to go crazy and actually buy something... actually I almost certainly will, come to think of it!
What else has gone on?
Ermmm, not much. Work, sleep, work some more, sleep more... it's amazing how quickly you end up in the routine. We did spend most of Sunday afternoon in the pub though, that was nice, even if we were doing some prep work for the secret thing. And yeah, I suppose it really isn't that secret at that, but I've not really mentioned it here before, and I don't have the energy to go into it now either. We watched Chris Nolan's movie adaptation of The Prestige, and I have to say I really enjoyed it. It's radically different to Christopher Priest's original novel, and I'd have to say I felt it actually told it's story more effectively than the novel did, and had a better story to tell at that. I'd recommend it, unhesitatingly.
