Post Halloween

I know I haven´t been updating in a while. That´s simply because I haven´t had much to write about. I´ve actually been working full weeks because the hotel has been really busy for a few weeks. It´s not now though, so back to three days this week. Last Saturday it was Halloween and I was suppose to be off on Sunday so I was really looking forward to it. But then one of my colleagues turned sick and I had to work Sunday as well. I decided to go out for a while and then home early and to bed. Of course that didn´t happen. First I went with my roommate and some friends of hers to a tavern and had dinner and beers. Then we went to a gay bar called Blakes in Midtown. It was soooo much fun! I loved it, even though it was so crowded you could barely move, and my wings were working as hooks and got stuck in everything! People, chairs, cabinets, doors, etc… After that my roomie and her friends wanted to go somewhere I don´t know and I decided to meet up with my friends from the Hilton. They were having a farewell/birthday party in another club and had booked a vip corner. That was lucky cause otherwise I wouldn´t have gotten in. It was a lot of fun there too it turned out, and I made it home by 4 or so. The next morning I overslept and had to get ready and to the train station in 10 minutes, just to have to wait 15 min for the train. Grrr… I almost made it on time to work though, only a few minutes late. Since it was the time change (daylight saving time) I spent the entire day at work changing the time on clock radios. Some real clever person made it so you have to use a screwdriver to open a lid to find the 5 buttons you have to push, and then screw the lid back on. So in my 8 hours, and thanks to a lot of “do not disturb” signs, I made i through 4 floors which is about 200 rooms. It´s gonna take days to have them all changed! I told them to get satellite driven ones before next time. It would have been so much easier. I hope someone else managed to change the other 1002 clocks before tomorrow.

Also, I´ve been trying to convert my phone to prepaid. I gotta say this place is kind of backwards sometimes. First of all they usually wants you to by a cheap phone and not just a sim-card, and i don´t want that shitty phone. So, I bought a sim.card with a contract and then I told them I wanted to convert. They said it was fine. Now however, my contract is cancelled, my sim-card doesn´t work, and they tell me I have to go to a store and buy a new prepaid sim-card, which I haven´t been able to locate. But what ever.

Anyho, now I have to go and buy a money-order for the rent, since you can´t pay online or with cash or  check, or credit card. It´s real advanced over here!
