taking a break

so i got a day's mc and tomorrow's a public holiday. but i've gotta return to work on saturday and do some story on the red cross.
(as someone said i always seem to get this kinda stories to do. whether at this paper or the previous. let's see, volunteers, more volunteers, cattery volunteers...)
i'm not complaining though. i think what they're doing is really quite amazing.

anyway, i saw an ad for this month's Her World and something just starred right at me. Generation Whine.

i think i'm most definitely part of that generation. i know i whine, i complain and i grumble far more than i should, especially this year. when instead i should be more than happy with my lot.

take today. i could be freezing my ears off at the office but instead the supes have kindly let me really use the mc and sit around at home, reading, watching dvds and listening to Snow Patrol. then again, could they really have said no? i'm not entirely sure.....
