Tell you why I was so silent...

...Because I was concentrating on my new career. That, and more in the Okokitsme mood.

Right, first I was studying, and had a load of homework to see to. Also, dedicating ever sooo much time to jobhunting, and getting involved with a few blogs and bloggers who kept reading my Other Blog, specially because it was in Spanish -but not only.

I didn't have much time to blog here too. Nor did I feel like the thoughts were for this one, but the other blog.

Take it as it is, or forget about it. I know a few other people with more than one blog, and they tend to do this sort of thing every now and then too. So enough about this.

Then this new job turned up. Very promising, but really hard to get used to -once again, loads of new info to get used to, and if this time I didn't have to learn by heart the codes for medical equipment and every little dangly bitty in plastic or wire we may need to replace, I did have to get deeply involved in Procedures, and corrections, and almost forcing people into sticking to newly implanted procedures in a nice, happy-go-lucky environment. And try not to be the Bitch From Hell to them.

Which seems to have been the case. Quite integrated now in the team, I've been given the assistant they'd promised me for September. She has started today. And I have been given a higher pay rise than agreed, and after only a month and a half, instead of the six months we'd accepted.

So, I guess, it was well worth dropping this blog for a while ;)

But am back.

P.S.: For those of you who used to read me... Summer Season has been officially inaugurated... New lovers Whiskey&Red Bull Artistic and Cultural activities for free in the street, freedom after work... You know what I mean ;)

Back at last

Sorry, sorry, sorry. Shame on me and all that shit shite stuff. Blah blah blah.

Funny how who most complains is who regularly reads my active blog and, probably, hasn't bothered checking the secretarial one -no wonder! ;)

As soon as I get my stuff organized, I'll be posting here again. Summer >> No son around >> more spare time after work >> loadsastuff to read, gals!

See you soon... and if you do really miss me, let me know ;)

Yessir!!!

im_cremalleras01

Keeping my mouth shut for what seemed ages has worked -am starting at a new job on Friday 13th!

By the way...

I admit I've abandoned this blog a bit, while posting up to twice a day -or more- on what was supposed to be the Alter Ego. In fact, have seen some signs of decay coming up. But as am gradually getting back to my Jeckyll moods, and shaking out Mr. Hyde, I guess I'll get back into these shoes soon.

One of the main reasons is I got read by quite a few bloggers who I appreciate and who wouldn't follow me in English, so I got used to my Spanish blog. Another reason is, as I stated when I created it, that I was not feeling comfortable with my old blog... but that's over now. I've seen the same old thing happen elsewhere so I know I'm not the only one out there getting in and out of blog-moods ;)

Just a few more hours

...and I'll find out.

Can't help telling people, can't really let myself tell everybody yet.

But am so sure it would be a real blow in the stomach if it doesn't happen.

Why I should have studied science

...or at least stuck to my technical side when I was a teenager, starting to learn BASIC but bored by the nerdness of it all

technical problems

New Sighting

Remember The Man, The Macho Borracho? Well, he might have been out of sight, but not out of mind...

I had been wondering if he'd even left town, or moved elsewhere. I had horrible visions of him finally finding His Woman in the -must admit, quite interesting- woman I last saw him with. Hadn't bumped into him since September, living only a metro stop away from him and having the habit of passing by similar areas...

I finally saw him pass by the window while eating a sandwich at a bar near his flat -don't know EXACTLY where, but I do now it's near that building X"D. That was just after Easter.

This Saturday I finally got to see him again, and thought mught have a chance to talk. But he was absent. Strange. Probably feeling down, not himself. Not dancing. Not even drinking. Just talking now and then to people who went up to him. When I moved up to him, making a casual remark -Not dancing? Lack of space or lack of energy?- he was sort of apathic, moody. He talked to me a bit, but I saw it was best to leave him to his thoughts.

As I watched him later on, he was still the same, talking to a friend, and soon left.

God, how I wish I could get closer. It was, actually, the time I've felt less warmth and response to me since we met, years and years ago. Must stop being childish -shhhhh!

She's done it again!

Eva's had another accident!!!!

Now she seems to have finally got a settlement about the time the bus knocked her down, and has had her false teeth nicely fitted, she fell doing summersaults and cartwheels in an underground parking space -Mary Anne, no comment! -Vel, empty your mouth then laugh!

So she has a broken elbow and I am not only helping her to type -do her homework. I have also to open her beer bottles, carry her stuff around...

Yes, as Unky says...

I am quite busy lately -stop laughing, Mary-Anne- and have just realized I haven't posted here lately.

To sum it up: I am still looking for work and in the process of Becoming Officially a Secretary. Hard, as I can not focus on their typical speech tone and have become too used to dressing extra-casually during the last -gulp!- 10 months, almost.

Been to a few interesting interviews, just been told I'm out of yet another process I've been going through. Am still waiting on a certain project, and am totally out of The China Project U.U

For some reason, I seem to write more often at other places... check the Btracks if you're desperately looking for news ;D
