Work, work, work. That's really all there is in my head these days. Work and sleep. That's my day. But I have almost made it through my first week. Well done, Mr Plume..

Did a little socializing today. Christian came over to my computer and asked how it was going. Asked me about my computer experience and such. He's a very nice guy, I like him. A little later he asked me what book I was reading. I was eating lunch and reading my Aliens book. And then Jan, from the other side of the table, said that he had that book too. Good times.

I also managed to get myself some lemonade. I'm glad I went for it. I was sitting there for 10 minutes, trying to work up my courage. On my first day Sanne told me that I could get a glass of lemonade for free in the cafeteria. I told her that I brought my own mineral water. Christian came down with a glass today though, and it looked great. I am a thirsty person. So eventually I convinced myself that there is nothing dangerous about going up to the café and getting lemonade. Just because there are lots of people and just because I would have to interact with the bartending people. It is nothing dangerous. I can do it.

And of course I could. No problem. I got up there and asked the pretty, young girl behind the counter for a glass of lemonade. And she did not say anything like "fuck off" or "let me see your employee card, I don't believe you work here, what makes you think you're entitled to OUR lemonade?!". I was having soup nazi dilusions, from Seinfeld you know. "NO LEMONADE FOR YOU! NEXT!". But no such thing.

The lemonade was gorgeous. With those wonderful icecubes you get in restaurants and cafés. Those completely clear ones. In a nice tall glass. Mmm. I still have a drinking problem, obviously. Hah. But that was very nice. Another little victory.

I also answered the phone. Sanne was out of the office. And there is a phone next to my computer. So apparently they expect me to answer it. I think it's rude to have the new guy answer the phone. But oh well. By the time I picked up the phone they had hung up. It's not my fault, nobody told me I'd be answering the phone. But they called again a minute later and I got it and told them to call back later because Sanne wasn't there. So I survived.

Working still on the flyer. Don't you just hate it when you make some experimental changes that you don't mean to save, and then you accidentally press CTRL-S instead of CTRL-A when you want to highlight your text? Oops. I completely messed the whole document up. Haha. Luckily it was fairly easily fixed. So no disaster. And I think I'm pretty much done soon. Then I can get working on the poster. No hurry. Deadline the 23rd. No worries.

NO MORE PLUME FOR YOU! COME BACK: ONE DAY! NEXT!
