Well, quite a lot has happened since my last post.

[azekeil]

It's been less than a week, but in that time I have:

• Changed job roles at work - doing pretty much what I'm doing now except for a new boss and with more of a product slant. I literally found out / decided on the Thursday and moved office there and then as I was away on the Friday and the new manager wants me to start on Monday..
• Taken Friday off and ridden down to near Bournemouth on my motorcycle to my 5 month pregnant cousin's wedding and seen my dad and step-mum who I haven't seen in years and rode back the same day
• Cycled around Cheltenham and to Cheltenham beer festival, drunk lots of ale and won a game of giant chess against a stranger
• Been to a disappointing Tewkesbury Medieval Fayre and also watched Azumi with ev1ldonut
• Typed up this entry on my N800 using my bluetooth keyboard.

Next weekend is the Cave Party. This I am looking forwards to a lot. After this weekend's disappointing social turnout I'm hoping next weekend will more than make up for it. I'll make a separate post about the cave party during the week :)

I am pleased with my cycling progress - I wasn't at all tired by all the cycling around on Saturday; about 8 miles in total. However, it wasn't all together; that test will come. I think I'll be fit enough soon to start cycling back after work, but I may give it another week - having just changed job roles I don't want to put too much pressure on myself all at once..

Lol, damn. Never mind. It was a good one :)

[specialunclet.livejournal.com]

[sarah-mum.livejournal.com]

Yeah. That whole 'selling it to people' thing was so rude of me.

Sorry we missed you guys at Tewkesbury. The plan was to go both days but there wasn't really enough there to occupy us for two days and we hadn't realised it would close so earlier either.

Yeah, it was disappointing from both the content and the social aspect for me. Never mind, hopefully we'll cross paths again soon! I think you decided against the Cave Party next weekend but there's also the Joust and then gashinryu's party at mine the weekend after that...?

I don't do caves if I can possibly help it plus I have a class to run next weekend. I'm pretty booked up this month now, thats the things with running the OTo thing, it takes up so much of my time now and I really can't afford to take too many weekends off from it now that its starting to gather momentum. Eventually it will run itself but i still have to do the pushing for the time being.
Plus I'm entirely devoid of all personal funds now. Any money to do anything I have to ask for which makes quick trips away pretty difficult.
I've become a bit of a home body for now which is ok, just means I get to see less of some people.

I don't think I'm going to be able to make the cave party after all - I'm utterly shattered after the weekend, and I'm starting another exhausting weekend in a week and a half. I need that weekend to recover.

FAIL. :(

I don't want to put too much pressure on myself all at once..
No indeed, slow and steady wins the race so to speak :)

sorry for missing you guys at Tewksbury on the weekend; only discovered you were there on Sunday after I got home.
Do you know when you guys are going to Joust? I'm trying to get tickets at the moment... :)

[azekeil.livejournal.com]

We're going on Saturday 21st - then we've got gashinryu's party at mine afterwards - hope you'll come to both :)
