grumpy and forgetful

i realised i forgot to mention a few of the highlights of the wedding+associated dancing in my haze.
1. some suprise & very decent crooning from the groom to his new bride
2. much later, a 'dance-off' a-la American Pie 3 (which included one of my colleagues)
3. a congo to the locomotion
4. group ballad singing
5. a wedding 'cake' made of cheese (i.e. rounds of stilton, wendseydale, some others and then camembert) a bit smelly but very good.

went to a lunchtime seminar yesterday. had absolutely no interest in the subject, but went
a) to appear Conscientious
b) because when the notice went out, we were also informed that a new sandwich company was going to be trialled and could we please supply feedback?

well, of course i could provide feedback! so off i toddled at 12:30 down to the meeting room. anyone who has set foot in this country would know that the english are a bit fanatical about their sandwiches, so it was me me, along with everyone else in the company who decended on two pitiful trays of neat sandwich quarters.

i was very dissapointed as i quickly figured out that they had forgotten about the lowly vegetarian and i managed to grab 3 quarters of the only vegetarian option (egg) in the melee before the talk began. it was lucky i wasnt interested in the topic because i couldnt concentrate on anything other than how pissed off i was about the sandwiches for the next 40 mins.

got back to my desk and, at the risk of appearing greedy, wrote some appropriately scathing feedback.

i am sick of the english today.
