Heute - auf den Tag genau neun Monate nach Installation des Counters - wurde die 5000-BesucherInnen-Grenze überschritten! *staun*

PS: Neun Monate!? Was, so lang bin ich schon hier???

Ok.. so yesterday the Boss showed up with two more Microfilms and said: "Oh yes there was a first order of material. And actually those are more important than the ones you've done so far. You'll have a lot of work until May. I'm sorry." Ok...!? Just to give you an idea what two microfilms mean: All those months so far I've been working on two microfilms! Obviously I wont leave this working place as soon as I thought. I had a first look into one roll yesterday and will continue with the second now, just to get an idea of how much it actually is and estimate how far I can get until May.. Gee!

I had to submit a work report to the Boss today. I wasn't scared or nervous - because I know the quality of my work is good. Maybe I'm sometimes a bit slow because I'm a too meticulous and perfectionist worker - but the quality as a result the work is good. Even if that sounds like bragging, I know it and I'm confident enough to say it.

And in this case I wasn't afraid of being to slow because I'm making good progress - in fact I'm already working on my last ten documents on the microfilm (and I still haven't shown you photos of my present - soon to be past - "office"). Then I'll continue with literature research and am more flexible in relation to the place where to work. I'm looking forward because I'm eager to read the background of the documents I've been dealing with all these months..

Anyway, as for today: The Boss was very satisfied indeed. Great success!
(It feels so good to see that one's work is appreciated.)

You know what's also a little miracle (maybe psycho-zitali has an explanation for me?): On the whole I'm a messy, unorganised chaot. (Contrary to my resolutions you shouldn't see my room right now.) However, if I work on a confined project I'm organised and well structured and systematic. How come?

Talking about being organised. I can't really say that about all of my Boss' research notes on the topic. It is very likely that tomorrow the Boss will show up with a bunch of copies or another microfilm with Voten which he had somewhere at home. He wouldn't have been aware that they where missing if I hadn't mentioned that it appears to me there have to be way more of them than what I've done. Well, we would have found out, eventually, but that would have been quite some trouble for the time line of his project I guess. Now I'm really excited. Depending on tomorrows outcome I may be ridiculously busy until end of May..

[Edit:] Sorry little brother but I had to delete your comment. No last name allowed on this blog! So here is the censored version of your entry..

Oh, and I'm of course ready for new adventures: :-)

Don't look before you leap And you'll become a hardcore extreme sports addict

I've taken some work home the day before yesterday and stayed in yesterday. Nothing serious just a little cough and a little sore throat. As usually it was my own fault. All the virusses which hit my colleagues during the last two weeks couldn't do me any harm but then I wasn't careful enough during the skating last weekend. Activity, feeling warm, opening the jacket, the old story. But that day in and plenty of tea (no "Isländisch Moos" unfortunately) were good, it's almost gone..
