Bleh. First proper day back at work. Somebody 'cleaned' my desk, which basically means that my address book has gone missing, my report folder was stuffed in my Drawer of Deliberately Missing Items and that my desk is eerily, horribly clean.
I used to hate January, what with the grey skies and such, and the dreaded office clearout, but... I have discovered some cool things about this month:
1. Dear lord-- it's light at half past four in the afternoon!
2. I finally found out why January is called January! It's named after the deity "Janus", a two-headed god who looked back on the old year and forward to the new year. [/geek]
3. Um...that's about it.
This, however, is enough. I also have Switzerland to look forward to on my birthday, which means getting drunk in German. Oh, yes. That. I suppose it would do to actually listen to my brother Paul's German lessons right about now.
Switzerland! Squee.
(That's so January, dude. Mary and I are planning to go to Belfast in February. Ha!)

Look on it this way, Cat-- it's a new year and, quite possibly, a new beginning. 2004 was the Year From Hell for lots of people. Keep your chin up and try to make this year one that you'll look back on fondly this time in 2006.
