what's been going on round here lately?

So... two days of VMware training. It's ok, but looking more forward to playing with VirtualBox and creating VMs from my redhat boxes than setting up ESX and all that horrible Windows malarkey. The trainer has a really annoying tic. He can't help it (or maybe he can) but it still makes me want to punch him.

I got a wedding invite at the start of the week (thank you, you know who you are!)

Rich starts work next week and has developed an interest in Aleister Crowley and the OTO. Very glad about the first thing, can't really say too much about the rest of it, don't know enough to really pass comment.

I got a receipt from college acknowledging my payment for the dressmaking course; I start in September. I am really looking forward to doing this - I need this sort of structured approach to get me out of the house and doing something for myself for a change.

I have a leaving do to go to tomorrow, should probably get quite emotional. My first manager I had at this place is going after 10 years along with three other (ex) members of staff, but I hope they'll get a good send off.

Jo's wedding reception really was a lovely thing. She looked stunning. It was fabulous and a total surprise too to see Caitlin again and finally meet her lovely girlfriend Jen. They are moving to London to start a new life and I hope to be able to catch up with them a bit more often.

I am feeling tired so I'm going to sleep soon.
