Has anyone heard from Abe lately?

Yay!! My Blog still exists.

Damn, so much has happened since I last blogged. Yes you could say that that because its been 9 months since my last blog entry, but yeah - well - also stuffs happened. I'm actually a it surpirsed that blogger.com didn't ditch Bloggy Hell due to in activity, I will swear to do better in the future

I Got A Job

Firstly, and I guess most profoundly. The job interview I was going to in my last blog, I got the job!! Once again I go to work in my school uniform (or a suit in lamens terms), I attend meetings (long, long meetings), click on stuff, go 'tap' 'tap' 'ENTER' 'ENTER', attend meetings a week after the first and cover exactly the same agenda after everyone left the last meeting and actioned there own agenda anyway- Which puts an interesting spin on the bosses who love those moto's like 'There's no "I" in "Team"' (nor is there one in 'Stuff off!'). So yes back in the I.T. game, well at least it pays.. it better pay!!

In truth, I like the job well enough. I like the dudes I work with, I like the building and working in the city again. I like coffee breaks and one hour lunchs (round a bouts :-)).
I ride to work now. Absolute pissa, I got home on one the first weeks I started riding and got a wonderful hit of euphoria when I found my petrol tank still read full. Bloody ROCK!

Girlfriend
Also the job also has to earn a credit for introducing me to the beautiful Katherine. A girl who just goes through life making me smile. . . I find it very agreeable (hi kat :-D).
Bike Stuff
What else, well bike stuff. Yes I ride to work now. 5 days rain/hail/shine (shine was more fun, winter kind of sucks a bit). I'm getting so used to riding that I'm usually caining down the road at 34 km/hr (kool eh?). Thats my usual speed, but then I live in the western suburbs and that lack of any hill ANY WHERE helps with the speed.
I've also entered in the 'bay in a day' ride. A couple of guys at work made noises about it and now there's at least 6 of us. All quite cool. 210km's though, something tells me to have enough money for a train ticket
Anyhow, Saturday is calling, I've just gotten my SMS to haul arse to brunch, so catch ya. Hope your out there really :-) (you know I don't care really -- Right?)
