full time employment

I am now just a few weeks back into full time work again. I'm missing the lie-ins, let's be honest, but it's nice to do something different.

I've been trying to still take photos atleast once a week. Last week I took myself off to my first gig (to photograph..not just watch). I went along to see the goo goo dolls, I was really excited cos I wanted to see them perform "Iris", one of my fave songs. My plan however backfired when I was tol:

a. we were only allowed to take pics of the first three songs (iris was about number 10)
b. no flash allowed (no great surprise)
c. After the first three songs we had to leave

So no live version of Iris then but I was pretty pleased with my pictures. I may be going to an Orson gig tomorrow, am waiting to hear. I'll start off with the smaller gigs and hopefully build up to some bigger ones when I get used to it.

Otherwise went out with Rhona at the weekend. I am getting very bored of talking to and meeting rude and boring men. One guy we met gave us a history of tidal power, another walked off halfway through a conversation (v rude), another was 40, annoying, thought he was funny but really wasn't. I'm starting to feel a bit run down so I think I might have a boozy few drinks after work on Friday, then chill out at the weekend in front of the TV. Hmmm that's the plan but hey, let's be honest, it may not happen...
