Oh, goddammit, a co-worker just strolled by whistling When I Need You and now it's in. my. head. and ARGH!

Okay, dorkage time. We've recently been getting daily reports on our call stats, totals of how many calls we've made the previous day, etc. I've pretty much consistently been in the top spot, and while I know this makes me incredibly lame, I get a huge kick out of that. (Yes, I'm competetive. Hush, you.) Yesterday was exceptional even for me, with 106 activities, which my supervisor congratulated me on, and the department head just e-mailed me to tell me what a great job I'm doing. *grin* And yes, maybe I take too much pride in a call centre job, but you know, I like this line of work, for some reason, and I like actually being productive. Yes, those six or so months of having very little to do but sit on my arse and surf all day were kinda fun, but boring, and I prefer knowing that I'm actually earning my paycheck.

(First Dutch-speaking person who makes a quip about living up to my name, dies, BTW. *glare*)

I hooold out my haaands and I touuuuch looove ...

Oh, boo, I won't be getting my Denise needles for another week at least! I e-mailed the woman running the shop I got them from, and her shipment of them is in customs and won't be with her until end of this week at the earliest. Bah! *sulks

Oh hey, Belgian slashers, do we want to arrange a get-together again or something when I'm over there?

And all that I sooooo wanna giiive youuu ...

I have a persistent headache and it's getting worse despite the painkillers. Grar. Need more coffee. And a cigarette. And possibly some sugar.

IT'S ONLYYYY A HEARTBEAT AWAAAAYYYYYY!

I think we're staying ove Strasbourg for Xmas. Think there's a faint possibility we hook up at all? it's not that far after all... (she says, despite a really, really crappy ability to plan anything IRL these days)

Eee, that'd be fab! Although, er, *looks up trains* Six hours? That's not very close! And I'm kinda verrah verrah broke. :( Although, if you wanna come to me, you can sleep over or something, or possibly we could meet halfway?

[anatsuno.livejournal.com]

We should try! *is only getting notifed nows of course*

will poke you about it when i can, and feel free to poke me yes? (man, 6 hours is long, where are you again?!)

I'm in Bornem, which is halfway between Brussels and Antwerp, but the six hours was from Antwerp, so tack on another 45 minutes to get all the way home.

I'll be in Belgium from the evening of the 23rd until late on the 30th, so let me know when is good for you!

I would hate you for the Leo Sayer thing, but it make me remember that my family filked that song becuase it was on a couple of mix tapes my dad liked to play when we were traveling. When you replace "you" with "beer," it's a better song. It gets even better when you're driving around in Norway.

Bwahahahaha! I will never sing that song the same way again. :D

LOL, I like that song, actually.
I still haven't met up with you yet, so I'd be up to that if that's allright with you and the rest of the group.
