Fine and dandy

Hi everyone,

Things are still going well here in Welly. It was a beautiful sunny day today, tomorrow is Friday, and my job is still enjoyable. I feel like I am getting to know my workmates better, and I even got my own phone and phone number today! They also mentioned something about a bigger desk...does this mean they intend to keep me? I'm still not sure.

Tomorrow evening is a special fashion show that the Write Group is putting on for our office building (all 11 floors of it!). It will be catered and the theme will be recycled fashion, which is right up my street. I'm looking forward to socializing with everyone in a casual manner; I think it will help to break the little ice that remains. Michelle should be returning on Monday, so I'll resume my normal duties then.

Rory is very busy with his new Xbox. I've tried to buy him a few things at the charity shops, but he doesn't get as excited about bargains as I do. Then again, he only paid 40 bucks for his new telly, so maybe he is a fledgling bargain-hunter.

We don't really have any plans for the weekend yet. The weekends keep coming up so quickly that we don't really have time to think of anything exciting to do. If the weather holds, I'd like to walk to the seal colony at Owhiro (pronounced "Ofeero" here in NZ) Bay, which is about an hour and a half walk each way. I'll be sure to take photos if we make it!

Miss and love you all.

X,
Amy
