Happy Friday...

... Well stick a feather in my hair and call me tickled pink if it isn't Friday! Happy Friday everyone! And aren't I glad that it's finally come. This week has been a nightmare, workwise. We're slap bang in the middle of budget forecasting season, which of course means ridiculous amounts of work for us.

And of course the past couple of days have been the worst given that all the managers woke up on the deadline day and suddenly thought "Hmm, perhaps I'd better have a look at that budget thingie", right before they realised they didn't have a clue and all booked back to back meetings with us. It always amazes me how they can do it every single year.

But I'm not going to think about any of it for the next two days. All I'm going to think about is how I've finally got a replacement for the dearly departed Neville the Computer, courtesy of Doofus, and I can now give my brand new internet access a thorough workout. And believe me, it's going to get a workout. I'll be amazed if I sleep at all this weekend.

Not that I haven't given a good go already. I've only been connected for three days and already I've used up about 800 meg of my download allowance. Thank Zeus I decided to go for the 30 gig account.

I've got to admit though, I've got one secret, dirty little desire as far as downloading things goes. I desperately want ... I can't believe I'm going to say this ... to find a copy of Young Riders. Do any of you remember that show? It was about all these wild west characters riding for the pony express and I was addicted to it back when I was in High School.

I know, extremely nerdy, but what can I say. No matter how bad it makes me look, it's still not as incriminating as my penchant for the WB Dawson's Creek spinoff, Young Americans. Now it takes a truely committed fan to admit to liking THAT show...
