Randomness...
I have had a hectic week at work and have been totally exhuasted, I have passed out on the couch at 7pm the last few nights. I slept for 12 hours on Tuesday night. 12 HOURS! I pretty much never sleep that long. I woke up at 9am and was meant to be at work at 8:20 *facepalm* Thankfully the meetings and workshops I have been doing are over, so things will be back to a more normal level tomorrow.
We are implimenting a new management program for council, and my section (being a grand total of three people) are doing all the asset management part of it. That is all of the water, sewerage and gas mains and infrastructure, and all the roads, land, buildings, parks, signs. Pretty much anything and everything that council owns, which is yeah, a lot, to say the least. We have to provide all the data on these things and map them all, so its a huge project that we will be months doing. Its completely mind bogling, considering we had 5 councils amalgamate here a couple of years ago and all this information is in different formats with data missing all over the place. Did a search on the council server for map files the other day and it came back with about ten thousand files, with dozens of copies of files with different information in them, yeah not looking forward to going through those.
Meanwhile, I also have uni assignments that I am meant ot be working on *headsdesk*
On a more interesting note, I think I will try to do writing for nano month this november, working on some original writing I have been wanting to do for ages but haven't found the time for. Uni finishes at the start of November for the year, so it will be nice to get back into my writing. I won't sign up for it or anything, but will use it as motivation, maybe aiming to do something like 20k words of original fic. Hubby and I have been toying with this idea for a noval for ages, we have fleshed out a world, kind of a sci fi/supernatural type idea. Its been fun working on it together, so will be nice to get stuck into it properly.
So yeah, thats my random grumble for the week....I feel better now *slinks off to bed*
