that Saturday Afternoon Feeling

It's a Saturday afternoon, things are good, and I'm just busy chilling out. The woman looking after my paperwork for my imminent work start is not at work today, despite saying she would be, so no one can get in to see what a good boy I;ve been and that I have no blemishes on my criminal record! That means more transatlantic phone calls to try and get it sorted out for tomorrow and sent to the person that is actually working!

Should be good once I can get that sorted out. It'll mean a new lift pass valid for the weekends, which is alright, apart from if possible I'll avoid the weekends anyway, although that all depends on my work schedule. I had a listen to the scheduling line last night, and I'm gonna have to listen pretty hard to actually understand what the hell is going on! A slight downer on this jollity is that my hoped for refund on my lift pass will not be happening, as I've used it more than 20 days! Nevermind, but it would've been nice.

Hopefully once the paperwork is sorted out tomorrow, not only will I be able to go boarding at the weekends, but I'll also be able to go and get my new uniform, which'll be quite cool. I'm just trying to look for some waterproof shoes at the mo so that I don't ruin my snowboard boots by walking around in them all day!

Other than this there is not much to report. Unsurprisingly as my last entry was yesterday afternoon, and the pace of life is pretty slow in Whistler!

In addition, I'd just like to express huge thanks to the great cricketing duo of Pete and Jonathan, as with their combined mixed tapes I've been able to create a pretty funky and eclectic soundtrack to my time here n Whistler!

Plus, as may have been apparent a few entries ago, I was worrying slightly about the future, and what it may bring. However, I was listening to Idlewild the other day, and suddenly a lyricr made sense to me and reassured me: "Don't tell me you're afraid of the past, it's only the future that didn't last". Dunno if I'm actually reading that lyric right, but it made sense to me the other day so there you go!
