Day 34: Physics and New Faces

I woke up bright and early today for what I'd been looking forward to all week: the Physics of Diving exam! In my excitement, I misread several questions, and didn't do nearly as well as I hoped. But it was over, and now I could focus on the day's work.

Today was busier than most. The shop had a ton of new gear come in, and it fell to yours truly to label it all. I even got to wield the gun that puts those white plastic tags in clothing. Try to contain your jealousy.

This weekend is Lois' birthday weekend (we've been reminded daily for the past two weeks) and her parents came into town for the festivities. I was a bit apprehensive to meet them, knowing Lois, but they were terribly friendly. After sharing the story of my ear (I swear everyone will know about it), I bid them farewell so Lois could show them around town. Also new to town was Teagan, a girl from Melbourne. She's lucky enough to be living in the same accommodation as Lois and me. She'll miss out on much of the charm though, as she's only here for a week.

After work, I got myself gussied up for dinner with Teagan and some of the folks from the shop. Not much to report there, it was a quiet night. After dinner, we headed back to Pixie's house , although Teagan and I didn't stay long. Tomorrow will be a day full of tank filling and all manner of in-shop excitement, so I'm hitting the hay early.

Yours in Partying Hard,
Robert
