The Weekend: Something that Happens to Other People

Made it through the first week in the new surroundings pretty much unscathed - there's plenty to learn still but I think I'm getting my way through ok. Sadly, any plans I had for the weekend were shot by me contracting the plague sometime early on Friday, meaning that between 4am Friday and Noon on Saturday I was asleep for about 28 hours. Feeling better now, although I'm sad that I missed all the weekend goings on, which included Geet's Goodbye Karaoke and a trip to the pool at a swnky nearby club. That latter one might have been for the best though - while I did bring swimming gear with me, the combination of a) said shorts being large and baggy and b) me losing a lot of weight since leaving home has meant that they've taken the appearance of hip-hugger capri pants. Not good.
