Morning, dears
I just got an email from uni saying that they have organised a special extra lecture for us this afternoon by some people from London, and that we should make every effort to attend.

Shame they have already given us heaps of work that take up all our time really, isn't it? I feel that will be getting done instead.

Oh, and it snowed here last night, but it all seems to be gone this morning :(

I can only presume
that the string "Open Plan Office" in an advert attracts the smug, ostentatiously-conscientious types who want everyone else in the office to be able to see just how hard they're working. Perhaps it also assists the petty little gits in their sad little competition to be the last person to leave the office, because it's far easier to see who's still there at some silly hour of the evening when they're laid out in front of you, as opposed to checking round the doorframes of other offices to see if the lights are still on.

You're a morning person because you find you work better in the mornings.

It's been snowing for a couple of hours now, but there's only about an inch or so on the ground. It's currently coming down as a kind of snow-drizzle. It's worse up in the north east, towards Aberdeen, according to my other half, whose parents live there.

I'd like to be snowed in, but in all the years I've been working here, I've never yet not made it to work because of the weather. I've taken several hours to get here on some occasions, and have had to leave early to avoid being snowed in, but I've always turned up.

It's not so much dedication to the job as bloody-mindedness, to be honest! I start out and I've got to make it all the way or I've failed.

Yet some of my colleagues, who live in the city, nary a mile from campus, would not appear on those days "because the buses were off".

They could have bloody walked.

Walking through snow in May - would that have been 1975 by any chance?

My dad did regain mobility, after squashing a vertebra, losing about 2" off his height and spending 6 months in a neck to waist cast. He did another vertebra in in a car crash (along with a lot of other bones, it was a nasty one) about 8 years later, and amazingly fully recovered from that as well!

it's cold out today.

So, despite my beanie hat and thick fleece, I was feeling it chilly when I was out. So I decided to adopt a thermal management strategy of walking really fast. But the problem is that I'm quite a fast walker anyway, so when I put a spurt on (snigger) I'm walking at least twice as fast as the average Dundee shopper.

So not only did I have to dodge the people coming towards me, I also had to avoid those aimlessly wandering shoppers whom I was catching up. All this, and slippery conditions underfoot.

I also, for some unknown reason, decided to wear suede shoes today.

I am an arse sometimes. And shopping sucks.

Yours made me cry. I think everybody wants to try riding a dumb waiter but I've never met (or heard of anybody) mad enough to actually do it!

that's just one of his many stories that reduce me to tears of laughter.

Just the other day we were playing a gig, him with a recently healed finger wound, and halfway through our last song he was playing a djembe and his finger basically exploded blood everywhere...

In other news, me and BK have decided to do a comedy gig up in Leeds at some point in March. We must be off our fucking rockers.

Hello again all, only an hour left until we can go warm ourselves in front of the fire with a glass of whisky
Some of you may remember a large and unbearably tedious job I was procrastinating over before I went on holiday, purely because I would rather surf the internet than do it.

I have just come out of a meeting with the big boss people and, since the job is proceeding so glacially slowly, rather than jump to the obvious conclusion that I'm a lazy shit, they have given me three data input droids technicians for 20 hours a week each, to get the project moving.

Yay for procrastination, and delegation! Now this project will get done without me having to lift a finger, which is the only conceivable better result than me not having to lift a finger, and the job getting filed under B.

Well, I had to go to a certain hotel to measure up some rooms for new furniture.

Because they'd had to gut the rooms completely, due to "to many bugs".

I know most hotels have bed bugs, but how bad does it have to be before there are "too many"?

How do you think they measure it? Bugs per square inch?
Bites per guest per night?
Grams of bugs per room?
