Of Snow, Work and “Friends”

Well, we finally got the first batch of snow that has decided to stick around. I can’t say I am displeased that it took this long, I love when there is snow on the ground. The only downside I can see is that people drive like absolute idiots. This was, of course, also the first real snow I had taken my car out in. It performed reasonably well, didn’t feel like i was in any danger due to traction. Only got stuck once , and that was when i stopped at a stop sign, going uphill, on sheer ice. Traction control handled the car surprisingly well, and righted any errors on my part. The only downfall to the car so far is that since it’s a diesel, it hardly heats up at all while sitting idle. Hence it is really a task to clear the windscreen of frost.

Work has been really busy these last few weeks, had two major brochures to get to print.One of them was kind of sprung on me with a two week deadline. Worked late a couple nights to get the necessary shots of the tools/machines. Overall I took over 2500 photos in the last 3 weeks. Grah! But they are finally done, and will be off to print on Monday hopefully.

Over the last few months, my friends have slowly been disappearing, I guess you could say. I haven’t seen a single one of them, minus Em, in the last 2 months at least. I let it slide at first, since they are busy with school. I can understand. But its now been TWO months. Even if i message them most do not respond. I’m just fed up with it. I would rather have friends that i can actually t alk to and have relationships with other than”XXXXXXXX is Busy”. I had originally planned on having a new years party this year again, but I have since decided against it Why would I have a party for friends who I only ever see once every blue moon, and every other time I try and catch up with them / hang out, end up being blown off. The only time in the last 2 months that it even looked like something was going to be happening, I wasn’t even notified when it was called off. Hence, I am tired of even trying to make plans, don’t feel like wasting my time anymore. It is time for new friends.

Oh, I also need to take a new photo for the top banner. Need a new wintery one. :D
