NO..SLEEP..TILL BEDTIME!!!
i dunno know what day it even is today.. bloody hell.. i've been coughing my lungs out for the last 24 hours.. i think i'm gonna have a heart attack!
so yeah.. so much has happened in the last week.. and besides gettin stupidly sick.. its been friggn sweet as!
i got back into melbs on friday around lunch time, picked my house key up off some mad baker and finally went home. It was good to be home but I didnt stay there long. had two awesome nights at the arthouse.. friday night was fukin insane! cheers to everyone who endured my entertainment :P carms was very nice to drive me back to the arty on satdy mornin to get my car.. cheers! that night my cousins engagement was ok.. was good to catch up with everyone & meet some of brent's old school mates.. funny dudes. ended up at a crap wog nightclub around the corner, stayed there for about halfa and then caught a taxi to the arthouse (which was goin nuts still at 1am). good times. crashed in richmond and caught the train back to yazza with gibbo, then back to kylee's. i started feeling really crappy on sunday nite and then by monday morning the sickness took ova! hello doctor.. he reckons i have whooping cough (sp?) which i didnt believe until all the coughin began! so i went shoppin and hung out with hayley after that.. which was kewl. i bought some dvd's cos i knew i'd be home being a lazy sick boy for days. :) family guy season 4, baseketball, and blankman :P ... season 5 family guy comes out on Nov 1.. JOY!
i go back to work on monday.... it starts with a meeting with gary & leslie at 9am. i spoke to gary when i got back on friday and told him my decision... that i would not be relocating & that i will not travel out east anymore. he didnt ask any questions, just wanted to know my decision, but mentioned that i would be losing a lot of benefits because there is no DM role back west. i didnt say anything other than that we would talk about it when i catch up with him next week. so i was due to start back yesterday (wed) but there was no way i could, being this sick. so i rang him on tuesday and told him i needed extra time off. at the same time i told him exactly how i felt and the reasons for me making the decision i made. in a nutshell, even though he says otherwise, i really dont think he cares about anything other than ensuring his arse is covered. understandable, but i havent worked for this company for 15 years to be pushed around... i made it quite clear, prior to taking over the eastern subs stores, that it was not going to be permanent, and that i wanted to be considered first when a DM position comes up out west. failing to do that for me was their first mistake.. and now, making it out as though i the one making the stupid decision is their 2nd. he did say that he has total faith in my ability but the simply is not a position available out west. so, i'm going back to work for lesley, a demotion i guess, my choice.. but certainly not my fault. it'll be good, just being close to home. i'm looking forward to that aspect.
on the verge of kickin off a new band.. mainly full of a mixture of ex-band members of mine.. really looking forward to jammin!
i've been cleanin up the house a lot 2.. trying to get that spare room ready in case i miraculously find some one to move in. the word is on the street & i'm gonna keep pushing it.
so all in all.. life's pretty shmick at the moment.. i've met heaps of new ppl over the last couple weeks.. been out & about.. its been fun.. good to get some kind of normalcy back into my life.. stepping out of the daily routine.. i dont eva wanna go back there again! a big cheerio to ma bro's. :D
