I'll tell you after I get some sleep or after I'm back from work.

;)






But seriously...

I'm four hours late for "work". I could go in now and claim to have arranged to work a late shift... or just appologise and ask to work the late shift. Or I could call in sick and take it as my day off this week. I got up at 6AM as normal because I usually start at 8AM - because we're students we get a lot of flexibility in the hours we work. However, only one of us is allowed to start at 8 and while that's almost always me, my friend Katie arranged to go in at 8 because she needed to leave early today. So, it's 6AM and I don't need to be up for another hour... so I go back to bed because I'm really tired, and I've only just woke up.

I have no idea what I'm going to do, but I'll probably get dressed and go do the late shift. Woops. :rolleyes:

Employee: "Sorry I'm late for work."
Boss: "Why are you late?"
Employee: "Oh, I had car trouble."
Boss: "Car trouble? What was wrong?"
Employee: "I was too hung over to drive."

True story!

So does Nag. But I can't grow it back on pain on no sex.

But anyway...

Tuesday I didn't go to work in the end. I blew it off and called in sick.
Wednesday I went to work, and worked an extra half hour.

Wednesday night I went on something of a massive bender after my band played the worst "gig" of our career. It was amazing. I got roped into a drinking competition next week, I very nearly ended up in an orgy, got barred from a pub for the first time in six years... Great night. (Not my wildest by far, but certainly my wildest night in a long time.)

Unfortunately... it turned into a great morning. So at 2AM I decided it'd be a fantastic idea to turn upto work six hours early. Needless to say this didn't work out too fantastically. But I ended up working all day Thursday anyway despite not sleeping.

Today... I was tired. Really tired. Really, really, really tired. So I didn't go in. I'm now in trouble. :(

On the bright side... it's not a huge issue. Offically I'm fairly sure all I need to do is make up the time. Unoffically... people are pissed that I didn't show - and my attendance isn't exactly spotless either... and next week I need to throw a sicky to take my girlfriend to the other side of the country.
