new friends

October 12th, 2007

Yes, many things have happened since our (where art thou elf brother?) my last post. Things like the great party we had outdoors last friday of last month, my congrats to the FC for that, or even the always exciting news on latest Reykjavik weather.

But the truth is, we hadn’t had time to write about that. Simply because we are still in an adaptation phase of the new positioning of players in our beloved forth floor. What happened was that, under a social excuse, we got some new friends up here. Friends to talk to and to play foosball with. Friends to massage our shoulders when we are stressed and fetch us a coffee when we are busy. Friends that can make some noise when we are trying to concentrate on some bug big problem too, such as where to have lunch, but friends are friends and we always look at the good side.

So all together, we are now 12 gentlemen, 2.5 ladies and 2 bathrooms.

And by mentioning bathrooms, there are rumors on how unhappy the little one is with the new situation. You may not know much about bathrooms but I assure you that they are a very understandable, kind and caring species, but with a very small heart. They burst into tears with the smallest things. Anyway, before the merge both bathrooms were cared and shared with whole our loving hearts, but now have been set apart. They no longer share the same “load” of responsibility.

The little bathroom has recently expressed its discontentment with the mathematician who has assigned the bathrooms to each gender. “-This is an outrage!!” if I may partly quote its comment. It seems that somehow the so-called mathematician has managed to put up an equation where a bathroom twice the size of the other should multiplied by only 2.5 ladies is equal to the square root of 12 gentlemen struggling for its little sibling….

Life is not fair when you’re a bathroom!!

Friday Party

September 18th, 2007

This ain’t news.. sorry about that..
But ya’ll know about the next last-friday-of-the-month party… it seems that the FC has decided to award us with some crazy, off-site but still a surprise party. They even call it “the-best-last-friday-of-the-year”!! Won’t that be raising the bar a bit too high, dear FC folks?? Should I need to remind you about the so many last-friday parties we been having that this one will have to step up to match its name? Just as an example, August-last-friday, which was even the last day of the month, some say that makes the perfect combination, something like the stars being aligned and the moon full and shiny as never before. And so we got that end-of-summer wild party that I can no longer remember of it… (I wonder why..)
To be honest with you, dear reader, I can hardly stay quiet on my chair just imagining what sort of amazing thing they are preparing to tame please our wildness selfs. I feel like I’m 7 again and it’s 7 am and I’m waiting for another Transforms episode!
Damn.. this is exciting!!
