Not sure why that particular title except it was the first word to pop into my head.
Been an odd day today & I'm in rambling mood again so apologies in advance. Got to work this morning and was happily typing away (happily as it was non-work related! ) when bang on 9am the whole building lost power - computers, lights, even the phones work on electric so they were down too. I was a little baffled at first until my boss and the accounts woman came into my office and confessed that they'd been told about the power being off today but had forgotten about it (now if I'd done that I'd have been sacked!) and that it would be off all day! Now for someone who answers the phone and works almost entirely on the computer, this was a bit of a problem to say the least! I managed to get all the filing done that had been building up since the stone age but by half 11 I'd done all I could so my boss sent me home with a load of letters and quotes to type on my home computer. On my way home I stopped by the supermarket, (may as well get the groceries done when its quieter!) then when I got home had a spot of lunch, and then did the typing which I got done fairly quickly considering how much of it there was. Anyway, by half 2 I'd finished work for the day - how cool is that! I've spent most of the rest of the day on the net although I did manage to get a small amount of housework done but couldn't be arsed after that!
Anyway, not really much to say today although I've managed to stretch out a story about bugger all for long enough - I think I just needed to talk!
Oh, before I forget, I must say I like bondgirl - she's great! Fancy starting a new thread (what being a GROKer means) because she'd been inspired by my journal - I was very flattered when I read that. Another person to mention is Andrew Pixley who commented on my enthusiastic journals and posts - heehe, I always thought everyone must think of me as some daft woman with a Graeme fixation (and I am!) but its very nice to be complimented by fellow GROKers, especially such wonderfully talented ones as they both are! Now before I get too sickening I'd better go.
bye for now nezangel x
Mood - Odd, happy, sad, tired - basically mixed!
Music - Bend Me, Shape Me (oo-er!) - Amen Corner
I worry 'bout u 2. I swear I only read your journal's to check if you have seen the light. It's Bill, bill, bill that should be adored. Although u 2 with Graeme and Tim leaves Bill free 4 me. No, no continue with your obsessions...evil cackle
Long live the minx! Thank you for your response to a response on a thing over in the main forum. I'd been worrying all night about whether I should. I was torn between sticking up for my mates and running a thousand miles from the first sign of conflict. Gad I'm a coward.
By the way, Bindy - you'll have to fight me for Bill...
Thanks for your support guys - I was worried about how people would react to my stepping in but the whole situation got my blood boiling, (she's not the only one to suffer from PMT - see Spev's journal and the erm..."apology"?), and I felt something had to be said and as I can modestly claim to be the most powerful person in the field of GROK...perhaps the world, I decided to tackle the wretched problem myself!
(erm...I hope people realise that last bit was a semi-quote from Gender Education and I'm not really that self-important - honest!!)
Honesty, as a newbie the entire situatioin scared me and as it was exteremly funny and not offensive I was confussed. I saw goodies humour and then suddenly I didn't understand. Good it is all over, thanx Nez.
