Andreas isn't here yet. I was kind of expecting that, since I know he's meeting Melli for sushi tonight and so he's coming a little bit later today.
I still feel good about running yesterday. I can get easily excited about things, but I also know that after a while I tend to let them slide. Anyway I looked up the possibilities of taking part in runs next spring or summer in this region. Fortunately there are a lot of runs in Cologne, so I can at least have a goal like 'I want to take part in that-and-that run' and get my motivation from there. I doubt that it'll work, I know me too well for that, but it's worth a shot so I'll try. Pi noticed I had been running when he came back, for my sport shoes were in the hall. He wants to run, too, so I tried to find out where we could go. There seem to be a lot of opportunities for longer runs close to where we live. That's the nice thing about a living in a small town, there's always a little nature close by. I told him I wouldn't mind doing it alone from time to time. I like to just keep my own pace and don't feel the need to talk. If I keep it up I might think about an mp3-player, though.
Anyway, as I said I looked up the runs taking place here on the internet and there were pictures of a 10km-run last year, so I checked out the result list and found my aunt. I was very proud, she made place 11 (women) and place 3 (women her age). I even found pictures of the race, so here's my aunt, seeming very happy after the race.
She's the one with the blue shirt. Or, you could say, the small one. By the way, she ran the 10km in 43 minutes. Now, I have no idea, what that means, but I believe that it's a good result.
I realized I can't post comments from work. Obviously comments are regarded as 'Chat' by the Smartfilter installed here and so it won't let me through. So, I either have to wait until I'm home or I have to put everything in a post.
PS: A former trainee left this company yesterday. He was employed here after finishing his training for about 9 months and now he found a new job. Also, as far as I know, his contract here ran out at the end of this year, so he wouldn't have been around here any longer anyway. So, he was this keyplayer in one project, since he was basically the only one who knew how to do it, which is also most likely the only reason why he could work he for so long. Now, of course, the project isn't even close to be complete and they got this student to finish it. It will also be his work for his diploma. Poor guy. Bet he didn't know what he got himself into. The really stupid thing is that the guy who worked on the project before isn't around anymore to show him the details of the project, so it works like this.
Thilo (who left) told Martin (a trainee) what there is to know about the project and now Martin will tell the new guy what he remembers Thilo told him. I wanted to expand this procedure and have Thilo tell Martin, then Martin tell Stefan, Stefan tell me, I tell Andreas and so on until someone would tell the new guy. But I don't think that's going to happen.
Anika just emailed me asking if I wanted to have a breakfast break. So, hopefully, she will be here soon and I won't be alone for a while.
Current mood: A lot better. I'm still angry at the world and feel an urgent need to just hit our chancellor. Don't ask. I have my reasons.
Listening to: Dirty Little Secret by Sarah McLachlan (I just recently started to really listen to her new album and it's really quite good.)
