Weekend at last

I am knackered again today. We were supposed to be playing football at 7.30 last night. We all turned up (well, I say all, there was only 8 of us!) but the pitch had been booked for 8.30 not 7.30. So did we do the sensible thing and find a bar to wait in? No, we were given the use of a seven-a-side pitch as it wasn't being used (which is bigger than a five-a-side pitch) and played for about 45 minutes on there. Four a side. LOADS of running... THEN we went onto our alloted five-a-side pitch and played an hour on that! Now I do enjoy the hard work, and afterwards you do feel good about working so hard, but this morning, my God, Im sore.
So did anyone see this story in the news? Its not the Friday afternoon slacker bit that got me (if you worked here, you'd know some people treat every bloody day like a Friday afternoon, but I digress) its the piece of software that can monitor employee absensces and "detects patterns of absence and recommends appropriate disciplinary action." You just know the person who developed this is some annoying little jobsworth who pulled the wings off flies and used to tell tales at school about the cool kids getting off with each other in the park at lunchtimes.

Anyway, have a great weekend all, and my Soundtrack of the day today will be "Life In Cartoon Motion" by Mika as Im feeling in a...erm... 'flamboyant' mood today! Peace.
