Same. I reckon I've got 9 hours worth of work stuff today, and that's before packing and wrapping the last two Xmas presents. Going to be a long day.

I'm feeling pretty impatient.

I've knocked out everything that had to be done this year and can't find any enthusiasm for work that can wait until January.

I just want the clock to reach 5 so I can run out of the door and start Christmas. \o/

A clap on the shoulder and an enthusiastic 'Buck up, mate' to everyone with more to worry about than me at the moment.

I'm not going to add too much other than to say if I can hold myself together until bedtime I'll call today a raging success.

I read that as 'raping'

Anyhoo.

I'm feeling a bit ill and a bit anti-social. Someone's been trying to call me all morning and i've not picked up. :/

I feel like I have ants in my pants and want to get going with this Christmas shenanigans already!

In other works I HATE BEING AT WORK!

Not bad, been really ill for the last few days with this virus that's going round so been off work but I reckon I'll be over it by tomorrow leaving Christmas free. Hope I didn't give it to the frail old man in the barbers, I helped him get up but in hindsight my courtesy might not have been the best idea :/

That's how posting on certain other forums can affect you

As for the anti-social bit, that's what computers will do to you

I am now bored.

Me and my colleague are playing the name game.

Any other suggestions for "easy-to-play-in-the-office-without-getting-caught" games appreciated

And I told you that if you were feeling bad then to come home.

Not bad.

Work feels as if I am marking time at best. I am off to another department January 5th.

I look at little Matthew though, including his raft of ****ty nappies, and it all has a purpose though.
