Holy crap, it's like you're 3 departments worth of people rolled into a one-man army! Congratulations again DP, keep climbin' that corporate ladder!

Thanks for the weel-wishes Aeliana, it's much appreciated!

My official role now is basically everything involving accounts and finance. Payroll, ensuring that suppliers get paid, liasing with clients, preparing the company accounts, etc. It's coming up to the end of the financial year and my workload is ridiculous, but I'm still strangely enjoying it all.

And I'll definitely ask my hot co-worker out for a drink soon, but I'm not sure if inviting her back to mine to play Wipeout would go down very well!

Nice man, congratulations on the new job! I don't dread coming into the office but could definitely benefit from a change of scenery on that front too... I wouldn't say I'm miserable where I'm at now, it's just kind of boring and ho-hum. I definitely understand how nice it is to have that energized feeling in the morning when you "want" to go to work, rather than feeling like you "have" to! What exactly is it that you're doing now? And when are you hooking up w/ that hot co-worker? Invite her over for a beer and some Wipeout HD!

That is great news Aeliana! It's always nice to find that special someone, and it really makes you appreciate the finer things in life when you're in a state of constant happiness. I'm genuinely really happy for you!

I'm in a pretty good place right now too thanks. I started a new job last month which is so much better than my last one. I actually enjoy going to work now, something which I thought I'd never say! Having a hot co-worker also helps massively.

Hey DP! Life is excellent here - long story short, I've been in the heat of a new (2 and a half months) relationship, so I've been going out more than I have for the past couple of years and it's been a lot of fun. Haven't been gaming as much lately as I usually do as a result, but I'm also genuinely happier than I've been in a long time (and when I do get time to game nowadays, I find that I'm enjoying it and appreciating it a lot more as a result of better balance in life) so it's all been really good for me. How have you been man, what's new?

Hey Aeliana, how's things? I haven't seen you around as much recently, so just thought that I'd drop by to see if everything's ok?

Hahah, thanks DP!

誕生日おめでとう to the King of Japanese Imports!!

Thank you sir!

I don't know whether I have a strong mental fortitude or am just plain insane for entering two seasons in a row of THL. I only got 400 trophies in Season 1 and that exhausted me enough. Now I'm aiming to double that, so it's going to tire me out even more!

Holy crap, I had no idea you were ranked so high in WipEout HD! The King of Japanese Imports declares you the King of Futuristic Racers.

Best of luck in Season 2 - Color me impressed you have the mental fortitude to tackle two back-to-back seasons! It would be an honor to have a DP review of my guide, I'm aiming to have it completed over the course of the next few days and posted/submitted before the end of the weekend - I'll keep you posted.
