right I hate London. It’s bloody lonely here. Weekends I can spend with my partner no problem (fuck I hate that term, but I hate all then others too) but during the weekdays I know so few people outside of work. Dublin was so much better I knew people from school, from college from work and a circle of friends. There was always someone to see or go for a pint with, here there is just people from work. Don’t get me wrong they are great people and I do enjoy going out with them, but it’s quite limiting. I have a few friends but I don’t see them very often (the weekend stuff kinda gets in the way of that…) but ya know it makes for lonely and boring weeks 🙁
Sometimes it’s nice to be in demand, other times it’s not. Work can always be so much fun. On Saterday I will have been with this company for two years, I am the only person from my class still here. I really have to wonder why at times lol, from both sides of the fence.
Following on to my screen name thing I was sent a link from a friend and I could tell what it was from the URL…sad huh
Right work stuff, I’m pissed at being asked all the time to solve problems when the person asking has not made any effort at all to solve it themself. It’s really starting to get to me and I know it’s something to be aware of.
On another note, just had a conversation with a collegue and were talking about someone who use to work here, he said his name and I had no clue who he was, told me his screen name and I knew exactly who he was..sad comment don’tcha think….
Some of the runners up are quite funny too
Well, the Harry Potter movie is finally out, and every kid in America has already seen it 20 or 30 times.
Here at TopFive, we think it’s unrealistic to depict a 12 year old wizard using his powers to battle evil.
The Top 16 Things a *Real*12 Year Old Wizard Would Do
- Turn that owl into a Hooters waitress
- Change Mom into supermodel Heidi Klum, but only for a few seconds at a time. Drive Dad nuts!
- Screw thumbtacks — put a T-Rex in the teacher’s chair!
- Use mystical powers to get school teacher Mary Kay LeTourneau to sleep with you. Then again, regular kid powers might do the trick.
- Bring about world peace — through brutal domination with his minions of large-breasted, booger-firing KoolAidMan-bots
- Grow pubes
- Make sure he doesn’t develop carpal tunnel from spending too much time "polishing the magic wand"
- Dad’s salary: $54,000; Young wizard’s allowance: $212,000
- Replace quavery voice with authoritative James Earl Jones version. For that matter, why stop at the voice?
- In the middle of the concert, impress his friends by casting a "Britney Blouse Removal" spell
- Brussels sprouts turn into s’mores the second they hit the plate.
- Figure out the best place to put the baseball cards in a broom to make cool motor sounds
- Emergency Embarrassing Erection Elimination
- Try not to tarnish his reputation. (Oops! That’s what a 38-year old Wizard coming out of retirement would do!)
- Perform a widespread "nylon-to-cotton-candy" transformation at the girls’ swim meet
- "I wish I were big — and not the Tom Hanks kind of big, but the Tommy Lee kind of big."
I caught the first 2 epsiodes of “24” last night and I really enjoyed it 🙂 Looking forward to the next few parts.
Ya know, I just had something reconfirmed this morning, it’s never a bad idea to leave what could be a nasty situation until everyone involved has read the e-mail and you have had some time to think about a solid reply. It’s even better when it all becomes unnecessary as level heads suggest a meeting! (shock horror) to work it all through. Then again your day can start with your first work im being
“ok….I’m worried this could turn into ww3”
