gettin' the hang of things

The feeling I hate most in a job is when I don't know what to do; when I feel like I have to either sit around and do nothing or pester every other employee in the vicinity to get someone to get me to do something. From my brief working experience, I have the impression that that is a required phase to go through at the beginning of any job. Anyway, today was a good day, I actually had stuff to do (and not just messenger-boy-errands, but some actual important stuff too) and I'm booked for the rest of the week... that's a great feeling.
Next week I'm going to visit the Versaille Castle. I think I might have mentioned that already, in the entry when I raved about that cheesy hot dog. I'm looking forward to it. I really like having my own little space in an apartment. It's so nice to be able to settle in somewhere.
Gross. I tried to gargle vinegar and salt a few minutes ago (helps throat) and I kept accidentally swallowing it. My stomach is burning. blegh.
