Just finished working for the day and have 30 unread threads to check in on before crashing. Glass of wine time.

Day off tomorrow.
Have a CV to update and a cover letter to write, as well as get some Shakma done.

I'm with ya there, Pins. I feel like I'm in a runaway minecart and I'm running out of track! I've been feeling that quite intensely for a few months now. There's this constant nagging feeling at the back of my mind that there's got to be more to life than this. When you're young you carry the notion that the future is the fabled undiscovered country, but all of a sudden it feels to me like I've not only got the ordnance survey map of it, but the AA have drawn a route right the way through it showing me exactly what's coming.

Yes! Is this what middle-age is? Life begins at 40? Except life doesn't 'begin', it's more a realisation that this is life... Which is why silly things like The Hub and Action Figures are so important....

So guess which genius has somehow managed to delete all copies of his CV before 2004 and needs to get a job application done before Thursday...

I don't think it will take Columbo or Poirot to work it out.

Mum:
She was meant to be coming home for a visit Monday to see how she's physically cope. We have concerns. Unfortunately the visit was cancelled due to illness, very similar symptoms top what I had the week before. This may delay her release which wouldn't be the worst thing in the world for various reasons.

I managed to get shot of both projection slots for Sunday am - it's a fifth Sunday in the month so nobody rotaed to do it - but I'm probably going to have to get up and go down early to complete the build on our new projection PC. Taken ages to do, cos I've not been around during the week and when I have I've been ever so busy!

Ugh. School-work Sundays are bad enough, but when they start with an hour missing they're even worse.
I'm also disappointed to note several of my clocks on automatic time signals haven't updated, so at present there are different time zones in different rooms. Fortunately it's still only 8am in my study.
