11th November 2003

I woke up today with new resolve. I’ve been working away like a woman possessed, with the result, that I only have about ten pages to send down to the printers tomorrow. Yay me! I get to go home tomorrow after all (touch wood). Feeling rather sticky and swooshy, but still about 50 times better than yesterday. Bad news is… Read More

10th November 2003

I always thought I was good at dealing with pressure. That belief is really being put to test now… Work is just a nightmare and on friday I found out this week I get to cover for TWO people instead of one. Which means I probably won’t be going back on wednesday. Great. Funny how no-one cared to mention that… Read More

7th November 2003

Have infernal itch in the sole of my foot. Nothing helps, not even banging foot against the leg of my chair. Humph. I’m still rushed off my feet, so this is going to be another short one. It’s a very bad hair/clothes/face-day, but I promised Stu a pic so here it is. Pretty poor attempt at an american smile as… Read More

6th November 2003

Greeting from the Xmas-crazed England. If you want to know how my trip here went, you can read last months entry. Pretty much the same lovely scenario, albeit now it was a ‘hydraulic leak’ instead of ‘buggered landing gear’. I am sooo busy at work I have no idea if I’ll have much time to write anything, but I’ll do… Read More

4th November 2003

Just to divert your attention away from snuffers and urinals I shall give you the opportunity to find out your Hobbit and Elf names. My Hobbit name is apparently Tigerlily Brandybuck of Buckland and my Elf name Tári of Dorthonion, which I quite like…. I wonder if anyone’s waiting for the last LOTR as eagerly as I am. Well, maybe… Read More

All hail the candle snuffer

4th November 2003

All hail the candle snuffer. Anyone want to start a meaningful conversation about my new rugs? No?

3rd November 2003

I didn’t get my fairy lights! They were temporarily out of stock. Shocked I am. Still managed to fill a bag with er.. stuff though. Well, everyone needs a candle extinguisher (is that a word?), surely. And an orange rug… Hmm. Still, now we’re going to have to go back at some point and get the lights… *sigh*. What a… Read More

2nd November 2003

Why did the Bangles sing ‘…just another manic monday, I wish it was sunday…’? I hate sundays with a passion. Even on monday I wouldn’t wish it was sunday. Sunday somehow spells the end of everything. Fun, Sleep, control over your own life… It is without a doubt the most depressing day of the week. At least monday comes with… Read More

31st October 2003

Well, I went to take the Drink-o-Meter test because Jo Whiley told me to. Apparently I’m Chelsea Clinton (not sure if I’m pleased about that really), and have consumed 2106 drinks in my life and spent £8424 (€12 244) on them. With this money I could have bought 0.08 ferraris. So, I think it’s safe to say I don’t have… Read More

30th October 2003

I have a complaint (again). It’s not even 5pm and it’s already dark. What’s that about? Wanna see my arty pic of the day?
