Yay, April Fools day, the day you can't trust any online news.

Ahhh.. Friday rolls around once more. Going to meet up with a friend tomorrow, haven't seen him in a month or so, a colleague from when i worked at the boarding school, we'll be wondering around London visiting our favourite shops, and perhaps have a bite to eat - not terribly exciting, but fun.

Short week today. Monday-thursday, with Friday off. With next Monday off, means two short weeks in a row. Yay.

I've said it before, but I'll say it again. It's nice to be able to walk through the British Museum on the way to/from lunch. Walked through the great court on the way back from lunch today, only spent 4 minutes in there, but gave me a smile.

Hmm easter.. a strange time of year. I enjoy the extra holidays.. and I enjoy the whole concept of being forced to eat chocolate. But I am not a pagan or worshipper of some other insane religeon, and so I don't really get into the whole 'celebrate' for greater purposes thing. I'm not even sure if we're supposed to wish people a 'happy easter' or not. I'm just happy to be home alone, and able to chill out watching dvd's and staying in my pyjamas.

Had some great news today. A friend of mine was due to ask his girlfriend to marry him, and found out today that she has said yes. This must surely mean a party!! Great!!

Music for the day: Hands around my throat - Death in Vegas

Aston Villa victory today, winning 2:1 with a man down.

Mixed news for Villa in results for other teams. Birmingham City draw (good), and Newcastle win (bad). Leaves Villa 6th in the table.. but still with a good chance of a Champions League spot.

I applied for a host of jobs last week, as I sometimes do, and I am !happy to report that I have received not a single response. I am not terribly surprised, it seems to be the common thing to do now, not to respond to applicants - I think it is related to the way in which you apply. If you apply by snail-mail, you get a reply, either positive or negative. However if you apply by email, the only indication of a negative result is lack of response. Strange really, when all negative responses could be sent out in a single bulk-BCC email. Either way, I am still without a job lined up for when I leave my current one (July 9^th).
