Uhh. Have sore throat, runny nose and dizzy head. Brilliant. Also, according to the weather forecast it’s going to rain on Saturday. Hence, I’ve had to reschedule a photo shoot. Again. Trying to do shoots on weekends, when there’s such a limited space of time available in which all the elements have to click into place, seems impossible. It’s truly depressing.

Still haven’t heard any news about the new door. I wonder if it’s ever going to turn up, not feeling overly optimistic at the moment.

Work is being a drag. It’s the third week now where it seems that I’m the only one in the office while everyone else is on holiday/sick leave/conference and I’m getting a bit fed up. Not only is it excruciatingly boring, but I also resent feeling like a glorified secretary having to answer everyone’s phones. I’m not used to having to deal with anything much on the phone in my previous jobs, apart from some press-time dealings with the printers and the occasional wrong number – most correspondence was always by email. I don’t really consider the phone to be an integral part of my job. And especially answering other people’s phones, trying not to sound like an idiot, is driving me up the wall. Gah.

This has all turned into a bit of a moan now. Better stop before it gets worse…
