The last month has been incredibly fuckin' hectic. Ten, twelve and fourteen hours day at work, often followed by drinks and food with co-workers. In fact, I've spent the last four Thursdays and Fridays out with co-workers.

I finally got my long sought-after promotion two weeks ago. For the interview, I had 48 hours to prepare a 20 minute presentation with a slideshow. It obviously went well as I'm now a trainer at my workplace. This means I'll be teaching brand new employees as well as old employees on new techniques.

I just finished my first two week class last night. It's actually much harder than I thought it would be. For 7 hours a day, I have to constantly be "on". I have to stand up and talk non-stop. Also, I have to entertain. I've got to watch the faces of every student in the class to see when I start to lose them, and then I have to regain their attention. It's a challenge, but I'm adapting and I love it.

A few other things going on right now. My best friend is putting on a dance show at the Fringe Festival with several other friends. The show is absolutely amazing. And my talented girlfriend, Faye, is also displaying some of her amazing work there. Along with her installation, he photography work is all over the flyer and the program. I spent last Saturday's show walking around to everyone going "My girlfriend is in the program!". Needless to say, I'm very proud.

I'm going to go wake up the aforementioned artist and bring her to the Matt and Nat sample sale... I think she forgot!
