a very merry un-birthday to me?

hi everyone-

just wanted to blog as i have no intention of doing it this weekend. so i finished up my week of work today. pretty uneventful but on thursday on the bus ride back to the main office the other temp started talking to me. so in the end now we are friends, or coworkers that talk to each other, since no one else will talk to us! so we were taking the bus back and we got off a little bit early to walk down princes street to waste some time and we passed a shop called debenham's and jean (that's her name) was telling me how much she liked the shop and i told her about how my flatmate had just gone there the other day and gotten all sorts of great deals, so she said "oh we have to go in then!" so we totally killed like an hour of company time shopping and she bought a sweater so i made up the alibi that she purchased it the previous day after work and was going to return it today after work as she didn't like it that much. so that was part one of the exciting day. part 2 happened after i got home from work i got on the bus to go to this great supermarket that my flatmates had been raving about so i got home put a load of laundry in and then got on the bus, as soon as i got on the bus i was putting my bus pass in my purse when someone through a bleeped bleep bleep rock through the window of the bus...right where i was sitting! no worries guys i was looking the opposite direction so no glass in the eyes, i got a cut on my nose and one on my hand but i am a okay, just annoyed and even more apprehensive about public transportation (read the blog about getting out of london!) so friday is kind of different in this city, as when you work for the city friday ends at 3:40pm not 5pm, interesting...i'm not sure if that makes sense but oh well. so tomorrow is my birthday, thank you, thank you, you can hold your applause, and i turn 24 years old. marie is coming from dublin, she's the flatmate that took over my bed at the beginning of october. so i will probably go out with her at some point. also my friend ruth, in dublin, had her baby Joey Irwin, she went into the hospital at 10:30am on wednesday and by 3:30pm Joey was born, everyone is healthy! i was hoping for the baby to be born on saturday so she would feel obligated to name the baby after me but you know! so that's about it for now guys, i'm making myself a vegan chocolate cake for my birthday cake and possibly some pizza, so ciao for now.

xoxo,
christie
