Okay guess the topic.
No, seriously. My life has become disturbing. I’ve just spent 10 minutes finding a ruler, the US adaptor and so on to take these…

A much better day
I guess the stuff that happened at my mums, that I’ve not discussed (and am not likely to discuss) on here; well; it got to me a lot. It’s quite subtle the way these things work their way into your consciousness. Anyway, work has been better, although I’m not entirely sure why. I’ve not managed…

Rats Arses
So, I had this thought. “Wasn’t it the British Colombia Provincial Nominee Programme” as opposed to a whole Canadian ‘get us more nurses we’re fraking desparate programme’. Having had a very quick look this morning (I am still not in the greatest mood after yesterday) I’ve found that… well, I’ll have to go through the…

Breasts – do they interfere with addition?
Why is it that breasts, or even just a female name, seem to cause blokes in the engineering industry to get very confused about prices and addition. I’ve had it before, at a scrapyard where they wanted over 100 quid for the head off a mini engine. My mum had some wanker of a plumber…

Great shift^w^w Shit shift
So, life continues apace. Mostly at an apace I can barely cope with. I was exhausted today, I crawled out of bed, cursing the alarm clock, the shower, the morning, my eyes for being so sore… I made it in though, I think I was even reasonably awake while I drove in. And then the…

Apparently it’s Toronto’s Birthday

When I get going…
I can be pretty effective. Managed to get my essay submitted (despite my uni’s incompetence); I got the most insane response from the admin bloke. “Thank you for your concern”. WTF?! He ‘believed’ it was fixed. *sigh* When I was (young, all this was fields, blah, blah) working as a Sysadmin, when I fixed stuff…

If you happen to come across my weekend…
I’d quite like it back. I believe today was my day off. Actually, today was my mum’s birthday. March 5th. She was shockingly ‘up’ when I arrived having hauled my washing out of the machine and hung it up, crawled through the shower (almost literally), heaped stuff in the car and headed out the door…

It’s colder…
…than in Toronto. It’s -2 according to my little thermostat in the car; which is hardly accuracy itself – but the windscreen washer fluid froze on impact with the screen – so it was probably at least -2. I actually lent out the window and sprayed de-icer on the windscreen. Why am I writing this?…

Good grief, it’s the weekend.
So, it’s the weekend. Did you notice? I actually hadn’t really noticed; see; I’ve been at work today. I did however work a late and spent the entire morning watching Kasimasi. And I do mean the entire morning. I’d decided to take the morning off anyway – plan was to walk to the shop with…
