Aaarrghghhhh! I have work to do and I can't procrastinate and do it tomorrow.
What do you have to do today that you just can't put off?

Alt: Long hair or short hair on women/men, or do you not have a preference?

I've studied all day today.
and I booked appointments I needed to get, and I've had a bath.
Alt: I think it depends on the lady but short hair on women can look really cute. I'm growing my hair out at the moment.

'morning. I'm trying to avoid telling a customer that unless he takes his control panels, I'm going to charge him storage.
This needs to be done, but he will get all upset and blub to his boss.

Alt: I like long or short hair, not middle length. I find it off putting when it dangles in my face.

I have to remember to take my microwave pots back home
I've got a few here from the last few days, and as a result I've currently got a curry sat in a massive tub at home, waiting to be seperated into smaller tubs. If I don't do it tonight, I'd rather not chance the curry.

If you really want to know:
We discovered a MASSIVE problem with some scripts that our customers download, meaning that their live production systems would not work if they used them. I immediately asked for them to be taken down from the web as I have just been put in charge of them (these turned up on the web two days after I had told everyone not to put up new stuff). They decided it wasn't important enough to take them down, leading to 7 customers with no live systems

Must be one of the first times you weren't there!

Mark and his friends went, and had a very good time, as always!

Had a family gathering I had to go to, sadly
Was a lovely day nonetheless, but I'd rather have been at the festival.

Yeah, I know what you mean
I had a lovely day with a friend I hadn't seen in a long time, though. I lot of girly talking, shopping and gossiping. These are things that I usually hate, but being with her after so long made it all a lot more entertaining!

I have very little to do today
I'll be viewing a house at 2:30 - that's about it!

The long/short hair thing really depends on whether it suits the person. I'm clipped to a No 3 (beard as well), I'll also admit to some 'manscaping' too.

Have to go to the bank
and get my finances sorted :( considering selling my ball ticket, need the money more and I don't really want to look fat in the photos.

Alt: short hair for men, long hair for women. Though short hair can look really good on some women. I'd love to have short hair, but I have such a long face it'd just be strange

I had to go to the doctors to get the same prescription that has done me no good for the third time in a row.
Didn't feel like he was paying any heed to me at all and kept throwing prescriptions at me to get me out the door.

Alt: No real preference. I've seen quite a few girls sporting a 'semi-Oakey' with it long over one side of the face and short back and sides. Usually dyed red, I quite like that.

I've got to go back in next week to see if there's any improvement..

A flatmate of mine was like that.
and then complained that I never did any housework. Apparently my explanations of "well if you'd let it get to a state where I notice there's a state, I'll clean it up" wasn't good enough.

So we tried a rota, which also wasn't good enough because rather than doing all at one time, I had to do it the minute anything became dirty, which essentially meant spending the day cleaning. I refused to do this.

The flatmate didn't last.
