haldoor: the road is long, with many a winding turn (sawyer)
Well. Done two jolly posts already from work today, so why am I doing a third from home, you ask? Well, must put a record of the work "do" in, and a couple of interesting TV watches over the weekend to mention. So don't go here if you aren't interested...

A couple of Kiwi photos (not great quality, but them's the breaks) under here too, if you're at all curious as to what excitement befits a Kiwi work do )

I am not keeping my resolution to not do this from work. I am so dead one of these days, I just know it.

Trouble is, I feel less and less like working the closer we get to Christmas. What's with that, or am I just incredibly sick of my job after all these years? Don't answer that, because I have a sneaking suspicion I already know the answer.

1. The South Park Uncut movie is really funny. A lot of swearing, but really funny. Note to self: watch from the start next time.

2. "Saw" is a really icky movie. If you don't like icky movies, don't watch it.

3. There are compensations for kids being a pain and not settling til late when visiting people overnight. They are called "early nights" the night after you get home, and you get to do lots more computer stuff without interruption *grin*

4. Using a rubber glove designed for your left hand on your right hand (when the last right hand one has broken) when doing dishes just isn't the same, tho' it will do at a pinch.

5. Doing chores first before you get onto the computer is worth it. Then you don't have to rush around like a blue-assed fly six minutes before your husband walks in the door at 9.30pm to make sure the place looks like you do something other than sit on your ass in front of the computer.

6. And I even WORKED at work today too. *pokes tongue* Okay, so I e-mailed [livejournal.com profile] kaige68 first, but once that was done, I worked like a trouper. (or is it trooper?) Anyhow, it's set me up for the week. I shall (note use of "word of the day", Kaige and Kat) be a good little kitty this week and work hard, thus giving myself extra time to write good stories. So there!

I should have known it when I woke up with a sore eye... thought briefly about NOT going to work, but then I know I'm being relied upon to open up at the moment as the other early starter is on holiday.

Anyway, it kinda went downhill... getting to the worst tonight really. Could have been more awful, but some days, you know? You just wish you'd stayed in bed. My ranty-ramble is under the cut should you feel like reading about my blues...

It's my own fault though, really )

... so shouldn't even be doing this. Stuff it though. It's Monday morning and already I have too much to do, so why do any of it?

On a completely different note, I had a successful weekend with the Christmas cards. Still got to put in the inner words bit and "Merry Christmas" on the front, but no big deal. That'll take what, an hour? Didn't get my newsletters done though... *sigh*, so that's tonight's BIG JOB. Mustn't get distracted by MSN or any other bloody thing.

Another good thing? Started a great thread with Griffin on the EN RPG yesterday. Going very nicely. Rain, I love working with you, did I say?

OK, this was the last fluff around. Must do some serious work now.

Nearly missed Chapters 4 and 5 of In the Shadow of the Eagle - what was I thinking!?! I haven't been in LJ for days, too busy wrapping up the Austria thread in EN RPG every time I've been in lately. So finally checked both Chapters out today when I realised they were there, thank God!

Otherwise, not much else of note. We have just moved offices at work, so Monday I MUST remember to go to the new one, not the old one. Packed up yesterday (Fri) and it will all be there at the new place on Monday. I'm in two minds about it, actually. Has good and bad going for it. Good being new place, bigger, we have our own kitchen and loos (had to share with another bunch of people just as big as our group at the old place, and that always had a "them/us" feel about who messed up most). Bad being the parking's not as good, it's 5mins further away from home (neither here nor there I suppose), and the seating for us office-bound staff is crappily arranged. So, it remains to be seen whether it will be better or not.

I have a headache right now, have had all afternoon. Really should take something, as every little noise is bugging me. And I have to say "Don't Phunk With My Heart" is REALLY REALLY not the song you wish your 9yo would play when your head's near exploding *sticks out tongue*. I only haven't said something because I really don't have the energy, and it's keeping them off my back. But, it's time for bed now (for both N1D and N2D) so I'm about to push...

...as "Hidalgo" is on Sky in 10 mins, and I really must watch it...

Okay, that's my little rave for now. Off to ogle Viggo!
