visual diary, Thu 28/5/09
Had a bit of a crap day at first. I don’t think my workmate realised that in trying to be funny and teasing he was actually a bit harsh. Plus they have me in this crazy box at work! It’s freezing!
Anyway, I pinched this idea solely from Ingmar. We’re supposed to be doing a collaborative artistic project but I’m still waiting for his part. Bit bummed about that too, but am now formulating more projects which don’t rely upon people (which is hard because I have no originality whatsoever). Unless, oddly enough, Kyle Cassidy fulfils a bargain/promise he’s instigated (um, no. I am not collaborating with him. Haha, as if).
Anyway, here’s my visual diary.
1pm
Waiting for the train on the platform. I don’t catch the train supremely regularly, but it was the first time I’d noticed the “mind the gap” warning on the edge of the platform.
3pm
Work. They try to make the place look cheery by decorating it with these idiot lanterns (ha, see what I did there?) but for some reason, it only adds to the soul-destroying nature of it. I finally have my own desk but they’ve stuck me in a corner where I barely fit.
5pm
My boss let me move desks to where it was warmer. I found a cookie, still wrapped. I am not ashamed to say I ate it when I know it did not belong to me, giggle. It was like it was filled with a crunchy Nutella!
7pm
Picked up a present and a CD order before I went out to dinner and a film in Carlton.
9pm
At the film with friends old and new, I bought some coconut and lime kaffir gluten and dairy-free sorbet as dessert. Delish!
Before you go apeshit on my arse for not centre aligning my photos, please listen to me plead my case: I tried, really, I did. The auto-choose-your-own-alignment doesn’t work, and yes I resorted to what little html I know, to no avail.
You will excuse me for choosing shower & bed over flawlessly published web documents. Sorry.
