I’ve spent most of the day making sure all my scripts are as up-to-date as possible in light of all the hacking that is going on lately. Honestly, there has to be something very sad about ppl who get a kick out of destroying other people’s hard work. I mean, what exactly do they get out of it? They need to get out more.

It’s been a strange week at work. I’ve mentioned how anal my boss can be at times and how frustrating it is working with her. Well, it looks like she finally bought a clue and has started to realise how we feel. On Friday, we all had individual meetings with the department head (my boss’s boss) and she actually listened to us and promised to take our views into consideration. Afterwards, we all felt really relieved and you could virtually feel the tension evaporate. We got a lot off our chests - that much I can tell you and it felt great so I’m hoping that it is a step in the right direction because it was starting to become very oppressive.

I also think I have a bad case of shopping fatigue because I’m damned if I can be bothered getting my last few Christmas presents in. *sigh* I was doing so well but I guess I ran out of steam and now I’m having to force myself. I just really can’t be bothered with the overheated shops and mile long queues at the check outs. Hooray, for the internet!

Still waiting on my ipod though and I’m not sure if Amazon UK will come through before Christmas. I could search shops the length and breadth of the country if I was determined enough but see aforementioned shopping fatigue syndrome. I can wait unlike those sad gits who queued for hours to get their mitts on the new XBOX so they could sell it for twice the price on Ebay. I don’t know what is more disturing those determined to make a profit or the idiots spending over £1,000 on something they can probably get easier in the New Year for a fraction of the cost.
