That is an impressive degree of skanky, manky, foul weather out there. I'm almost enjoying it again, especially the looks I got when I turned up in the coffee shop next door1 wearing no coat, no sleeves - just jeans and a tshirt. I got stared at, bigtime.

Last night was the Age of Legends dinner (to be held each year hereafter as close as possible to the 17th of November). It was good - all the food worked out perfectly, and everyone managed the in-character thing admirably. Of course, [livejournal.com profile] olethros, [livejournal.com profile] inannajones and I have years of practice by now, even though [livejournal.com profile] olethros was playing two characters at once.

I'm just realising that I've never worked so intensively before as I have this year; anywhere else I've worked has had meetings, other people who could be delegated to / have work traded with them, and hasn't been completely expressed to the world via its website. Here, the website IS the public face of the company, and that makes a huge difference, as does the small tech staff - there're five of us, and I'm the only real web-developer as such. And I'm realising as I hadn't before that holidays are essential - the longest time off I've had this year when I wasn't ill was a long weekend in September. So I'm really looking forward to Finland at the end of December.

1 - it's actually three doors down, but the places in between are an employment agency and an Abrakebabra, which by common agreement hereabouts do not exist.
