23 days left
Nov. 12th, 2018 07:21 pmToday wasn't too bad, all in all. I didn't have to get to work before 1pm, I managed to write a little something in the morning and worked a bit on the pocket letters for my colleagues' naming days.
Naming days are a relatively big issue over there; I think because they are easy. The day of honour of one's patron saint stands in the calendar - you don't have to use cunning methods to hunt it down like you do with birthdays. So yeah, the gifts for the two Elizabeths are more or less finished and I've moved on to the two Katherines.
Still no gas, but for today we had a chicken and rice casserole pre-cooked, which we warmed up in the mini grill/toaster combo thingie and had instant soup and fruit salad to it, which was lovely.
Also, childish colleague who's refused to talk to me during the last three weeks or so left for good into retirement. It turns out she felt indeed insulted for not having invited to my birthday party. Some people...
