Apparently in Austria, with my co-workers. They'll have fun. Since I've never done it before.

First time skiing? Well be ready for your legs and upper arms to be sore. Very sore. Also, very wet! Have fun!

Thanks! Fortunately, I'm feeling better already.

Also, you can ski? Of all people who I imagined who could ski, you're not among them somehow.

I skiied only once in my life, last year. It was fun at first but I got fed-up of falling on my wet-ass all the time.
If I go again, it'll be for a week and I'll take lessons to learn properly.

Hey, that sounds exactly like me experience. Of course, my experience also included getting the flu again (which apparently wasn't really gone yet). And also lots and lots of beer. God, lots of beer. :D

Thank God for those beers, otherwise that weekend would've been a complete disaster. I had great fun, but that goddamn flu takes a lot away from it. *sick*

It's always time for binge drinking. Tuesday liquid lunch!

Although I share the sentiment, unlike some of us, I have to work from Monday 'till Friday. Binge-drinking therefor is reserved for Fridays and Saturdays.

Well then, binge extra hard this weekend?

Where do you go when drinking? Club, bar, house?

To be honest, I'm not that much of a binge-drinker. I never get really wasted.

But, a bar it'll be.

Deadlines. Nice. I started at work 11 hours ago. I think it might be time to go home somehow.

I'm not surprised, with all those slackers over there. :D

Also, those 11 hours did include a break, so all in all I think I worked about 10, 10:15 hours.

At work at 6:45, seriously...

On the other hand, beer and food and merriness all around yesterday at work. So it evens out, I suppose.

And in other news I might be out of a job soon. The company's having a difficult time and out of 17 people, at least 5 (I know of) will not be be there in a bit. I might be a sixth. My contract ends this month and the owner has stated he'd like to keep me on board if they can manage how. Very presumably, at least the way I understand it, they'll offer me a 3-month contract Somewhere between 3 and 12 months, he said. I'm thinking more towards the 3, than. So, how that'll turn out is a big question. And if they can still offer the contract.
