day 1 - no coffee, i survived, it was not that hard really. I had tea instead i guess that still has caffiene in it...but not as much. I'm drinking a cammomile tea right now but it's fairly unsatisfying. It's supposed to help me sleep and relax. That's what i'm looking for right now...relaxation, good sleep and happiness and apparently tryptophan is the key. A pre-cursor for serotonin production... Ate a banana, a yoghurt and a chicken and cheese sandwich with a glass of milk. Not sure i can put more typtophan in my diet than that. I must admit i feel quite good now but perhaps it's all psychological.

i dont really partake in the bitchiness at work, but on friday i took a half day off work and didn't put in a leave form because i was planning to add it onto the leave i take in a week's time for band recording. I told my manager about this and she thought that would be best too. For some reason, K asked M if i put a leave form in and when there wasn't one, K and M went to the to tell the boss (above my manager) that i didn't put my leave form in....seriously who over the age of 10 does that? Apparently boss shrugged and reminded them that he did the same thing last week too. Ha!!

I think everyone has begun to get sick of K, she does things like stand at the fax machine all day and reads incoming faxes NOT addressed to her so she knows everything that goes on on-site, she looks over people's shoulders when they order stationary to see how much company money their spending and she hangs out with the receptionist to get the gos cos she takes all the phone calls, i mean.... i just fail to understand.
