It's really too bad his mum couldn't make it, that would have been fun.

I am stuffing myself with biscuits and having mixed feelings about a Christmas bonus I just got. Mixed because, while it's great to get a bonus and I never have had one before, they are STILL fucking about with my new contract (should have been done in AUGUST) so I don't get the full amount but some pro rata fraction because officially I still work PT.
Now I'm going to the cashpoint and then getting a bagel and sitting in the sun reading my Robert B Parker for an hour.

I did absolutely nothing last night. Ok, I wrote ONE Christmas card, but that's about it.
I need my coffee.

I once worked on a film called "Welcome to Woop Woop", for what it's worth.

I just finally got a hotmail account again for pseudonym stuff, and then remembered one of the reasons my old account got cancelled for lack of reading was that Eudora isn't hotmail-friendly. Ah well.
And yeah, Nicole, woop woops aside (I just like typing "woop woop"), I know pretty much how you feel, and I generally am one of the Positive People.

(I don't think the film was any good. I just did a bit of research for Stefan Elliot, the director. It wasn't very exciting, but I was able to do a flawless camp Australian accent by the end)

I'm not gonna pay just for this email account, it's purely a reader-mail thing, so I figure I'll just check hotmail from time to time.

What's the meeting about? Are you likely to be judged in some way? Will action (positive or negative) be the outcome? Tell all - I'm sure we can all empathise.

Good luck regardless, H. Mann - it'll be sucky but over soon. Let us know how it goes.

Man, also I am really not getting back into this job thing. I feel like playing hooky again. And having a drink. Though maybe just of coffee. Bleh.
Also, H., it always seemed odd that you didn't post to these threads.

Horace, don't sweat it, these are pretty low key threads. I think of them as like a faculty lounge without the misery poker.

H, if you want that intimacy, go back to writing stories for the PD (or just give in and pitch the stories to the paper, but tell them to fuck off with their exclusivity claptrap).
