(no subject)
Apr. 14th, 2007 12:40 pmStill here. Had a totally boring fortnight doing the end of year figures at work all on my own *wibbles* because the boss has been on holiday. It's no picnic doing maths at the best of times but trying to do it while serving in the shop, answering the phone, entertaining the customers and generally being 'available' is a total bugger.
Also had some worry because I've lost touch with a friend. She moved recently to try to find work, promising to keep in touch and, coincidentally, also changed her mobile phone number. Since I know she's a bit strapped for cash I know she'll be expecting me to get in touch rather than the other way around but I've got no means of doing so. I just hope she's okay. Of course this sort of thing happens all the time on the internet. People one view as being closer than sisters suddenly either disappear completely or are always 'too busy' to talk and one worries oneself sick in the first place and accepts that they have found something more interesting to do [complete with new friends, screen names and hangouts] in the second. But in this case I'm really concerned about her and there's bugger-all I can do about it!! Ah well, fingers crossed and trust to luck.
A random update wouldn't be complete without a meme so here's one stolen from
authorm [incidentally, you should check out her books, you really should!]

2. Put it on 'play all'.
3. Shuffle it

Comment and I'll--
1 - Tell you why I friended you. Assuming I can remember :)
2 - Associate you with something. A fandom, a song, a colour, a piece of fruit. SOMETHING.
3 - Tell you something I like about you.
4 - Tell you a memory I have of you.
5 - Associate you with a character/pairing.
6 - Ask something I've always wanted to know about you. (Or else I'll just ask a random question. I reserve that right.)
7 - Tell you my favorite user pic of yours.
8 - In return, you must spread this disease in your LJ - this last bit is optional, of course. Spreading disease is insanitary.
