New job, staggering around the hostel and gay bingo

Never thought I'd be writing that as a title.

New job starts tomorrow and I bought some work trousers yesterday in celebration (see how glamorous?). I asked my boss what the dress code was and he basically described a load of clothes I don't own, so I'll get a pair of proper work shoes and other stuff when I get paid. And the bonus is the earliest start I'll have is 10am, so that's good since I am not a morning person in the slightest.

Sunburn is now under control and has developed into a nice tan, although not before I was incredibly hot last Thursday night after I went to bed. I got up to take a couple of aspirin and suddenly felt especially dizzy, you know the kind where you can't see properly. So I headed out of the toilet and staggered my way to my room door and struggled to get the key into the lock since I couldn't see straight. Some guy across the hall asked if I was OK and I said "No, I just feel really dizzy". After a couple more attempts at the door I looked back and he was gone - thanks mate! Although in hindsight he probably thought I was wasted. I was still all over the place in the room but as soon as I sat down I was fine, so there you go. I think a combination of the heat and my sunburn was to blame since I felt fine the next day. So listen to Baz Luhrmann is my advice.

Other than that the past week has been enjoying the last few days of funemployment. Some drinks in Speakeasy's on Granville on Saturday and also a possible new local cafe. This could be my Central Perk.

And yeah, me and the girls went to gay bingo. I think I might leave that update until the pictures are uploaded since they will speak a thousand words and you'll wish you never heard about 900 of those. Greg asked me what it was like this morning and I thought for a bit, but the best way I could think to describe it was: "It was gay bingo".
