work = no life balance

a monthly cycle is too much trouble. from now on i'll make this blog a bi-monthly affair. bi-monthly because of its ambiguous definition.

i started working on a full-time basis at the end of january and february just disappeared in a flash. at this rate my july vacation will be here in no time at all. yes, any time now.

but right now most of my time is consumed by work-related issues too many to list, so i'll just skip it.

.

okay, so nothing happened in feb.

apart from my car(s). that definition's ambiguous too, because the bmw is semi-permanently in the workshop undergoing repairs/upgrades so i see it once a month. the Silvia, then. i'm accumulating the items i bought online so i can put it in the shop for one major operation instead of a dozen flu shots. but don't hold your breath because after these mods it'll still look exactly the same. apart for one additional ding on the bonnet, because the office carpark's dominated by mango trees and i found out mangoes are quite heavy. i fucking hate them now.

and these mods will slow down and eventually cease because my bank account's already in its death throes.

after the turbo upgrade, maybe.

and the engine.

probably the driveline too.

hmm...

maybe it won't stop.

i'm spending less time with chinky now because of work too. it's totally upheaved my life. but it's just a temporary thing because once the major housekeeping in the office is over i won't have to spend saturdays at work.

yesterday:

father saw me at the office and looked rather pleased.

he: see? if you're willing to burn a couple of weekends for work it'll be cleared in no time!
me: i've been coming here every saturday since i started work and i'm still not seeing the clearing.
