since my office is moving out of my bedroom and into an actual room, I went and did some office supply and furniture shopping.<\/p>\n
I hate traffic.<\/p>\n
I REALLY<\/b> hate traffic. It’s boring, slow, not fuel efficient and really wastes your time while you’re sitting in it. I haven’t driven through the CBD and near-CBD during the day in so long that I’d forgotten how bad it really is. urghe.<\/p>\n
But Ikea was great. The big store in Richmond – wow, i could spend hours in there (and a few thousand bucks no doubt).<\/p>\n
I bought a (smaller) desk. This’ll go in the bedroom (always need somewhere to do stuff) – and move my big one downstairs (not looking forward to that).<\/p>\n
Also got a nice big thing to hold my ever-expanding CD collection.<\/p>\n
It’s interesting… working for a company based in sweden and buying office stuff from Ikea. I guess it’s in the spirit of things.<\/p>\n
The reason i was in the CBD was to get a copy of my birth certificate. Without which, it’s a lot harder to get a passport (which, beleive it or not, i’ve managed to do without all my life). But now, work requires it – so I’m getting one.<\/p>\n
Getting the piece of paper took about two minutes, getting in and out of the city took forever.<\/p>\n
Bloody city car park. coming out, i swear there was less than an inch either side of my mirrors. talk about crapping myself as driving out. That and it was next to impossible to get out of the car once i had parked (and spent about 5 or 10 mins actually looking for the darned thing).<\/p>\n
Been sorting out my filing cabinet too. Trying to separate the work and personal stuff. will put work stuff somewhere more specific. Going to need to – what with expenses et al now being sorted out from home (can’t just leave them at work until i fill out the form).<\/p>\n
but should all be good…. just have to get on with that task i’ve been assigned.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
