4. Post the top ten results (or whatever suits)


At the moment my teeth are really sore, thanks to the new night-wearing tooth-plate I have that is supposed to stop the snoring. I've worn it once (last night) and while [livejournal.com profile] da_norvegicus thinks I was quite quiet, my mouth is taking a while to get used to it.

Oh well - drinkies at the office tonight, then a little while of sitting at home, watching cheesy videos and knitting.

"*Scribbles on notepad* I'm afraid this dilemma is common in the world of Sports, the athletic condition if you will. You'll just have to find a coping mechanism..."

Every job advert for my company gets emailed around internally before it hits Seek. Some of these jobs are in Sydney :) If I see anything, would you like it? Anything you'd like me to look for?

That's very sweet of you. Am particularly after something for about 6 months, so reynardo at optusnet dot com dot au would be happy to hear stuff.

I've taken that quiz three times and it keeps telling me I should be a website designer.

Which would be useful, if I knew a cheap, fast way to get the necessary skill set, and if there were any openings in field in this area.

Don't be an electrical engineer, it's REALLY hard to steer a train when you're a bolt of lightning.
