Hi Ho, Hi Ho...

...it's off to work I go...

Yes. In startling news I'm actually working this week. I'll be at Nigel Kidson & Co, solicitors, working as a secretary and audio typist.

Wish me luck. Hopefully I won't mess it up too badly.

No...but one of the partners insists on describing the punctuation he wants in his letters by his own random names. Like, a colon is 'two dots' which is really odd when you encounter it on a cassette tape while doing audio typing.

He also has the annoying habit of not being able to just clarify when I ask for clarification on what he is saying, but instead explaining to me how to do audio typing in its entirety. All I wanted was for him to listen to one sentence and tell me what he meant. I didn't need him to sit over my shoulder explaining how he thinks I should type directly into the letter template instead of taking the bulk of the text down in rough first for ten minutes.

And then go through the written notes I had already which had everyone's name and address and re-shuffle them into an order he thinks will make it easier for me, but just leaves me entirely lost.

Argh! I'm taking a five minute break just to sort my brain out!

In good news, I've had enough dead time that I've begun to write a cheat's guide to Fading Suns-verse and why it's bad for you and Christa this morning!

annwfyn@hotmail.com will be checked periodically throughout the day, either more or less regularly depending on how much work they are giving me to do.

I think there was meant to be a comma there somewhere.

The document is on why Fading Suns world is bad.

It's for Andy and Christa.

Tho it could also be 'why you're doomed, and probably without sex'.

Without sex? And Christa agreed to this mission?! Hogwash :p

I think I've proved you wrond already.. I'm proud of the fact that I managed to squeeze in a little sexual healing, and in the first session no less. :)

Good luck. You'll do fine.

If they give you hassle then kick 'em in the nuts!
