New beginning

7.30 a.m - Arrival at office. New addition to the 'Cubicle'. Through some intelligence thought it would be a rough day. Quite the opposite. Morning passes without incident.

2.30 p.m. Peace still reigns. Not quite sure how. Stranger has been fitting into new shoes all day. Must admit, not a bad show. Wonder whether the calm will last. I'll certainly work to make sure it does.

6.25 p.m. Contemplating the future. With new 8 to 5 arrangement, whither the room for extra-curricular? Whatever shall be my vocational fate? Need lots of consultation on that one. As end of '40 days' approaches, answer should be forthcoming. It now is beginning to make sense.

What have I to fear? After all I've achieved...uncertified...? Nothing but DOUBT must I fear. THAT is the monster to be slain at the soonest. With him vanquished nothing shall obstruct my progress.

Motto for the coming period: He who brought me this far shall take me further still.
