Beer Festival?

Hi everybody,

It is once again Saturday morning. Seriously, I can't believe how quickly the weeks go by. Rory is still sleeping and I'm sitting by the dining room windows, watching the rain fall...

I finished my third week at Write. I've been given all sorts of tasks, and my latest was making mock-up calendars for 2009, so that the trainers can choose an annual leave plan. The job might be random, but at least it offers variety! Fridays are always nice because the weekly office meetings take about an hour out of my 3.5 hour day. There also serve some nice chocolate biscuits (cookies).

The WriteGroup has such a feminine atmosphere, it is almost humorous. One of my jobs for next week is to put together a "trainer emergency kit" for when they are traveling, and this is to include lipstick, pantyhose, sewing kit, etc. The receptionist and I will actually have to go on a shopping expedition for these things...should be a laugh!

There is a beer festival called "Beervana" on today, but I'm not sure if we are going yet. It is $25 just for entry, and then you have to pay for all of the samples. It sounds a bit steep. Last night we went out to our local Thai restuarant in Island Bay, and it was delicious. Fridays seem to be either smorgasboard nights with Nik and Sara or date nights with just Rory and I, but either way it is a nice way to end the week.

I still need to take some pictures...

Love, Amy
