What Ho!
Have you missed me? Yes, it's been a while. Life just seems to be zooming past at the moment without giving me much time to sit back, reflect and write LiveJournal entries. In fact this entry has only been made possible by my return to working in the Library on Sundays, and hence a proximity to a computer and nothing else competing for my time.
'What's this?' I hear you shout. 'We thought you'd escaped that hellhole and moved on to pastures new....' This is true for the most part, but, masochist that I am, I have returned here to work Sundays (hopefully just til Christmas) in order to try and clear some of my horrific student debt.
Other than that all is well in my hectic little world. Work at the Commission continues to be good. Although at times I still can't believe the amount of trust they bestow on me and the autonomy that I have. And somehow I've managed to talk them into letting me completely rewrite all of the Digital Archiving Policy. The amount of work this will involve scares the bejesus out of me.
I've also just started back at Uni for the 2nd (and final) year of my Archiving degree. This year should be pretty straightforward academically but I really can't be arsed getting to know all of the new people so it's been a little odd so far.
While I remember, I've seen two movies this week that have made laugh to the point of tears. Firstly Clerks II, yes it's overly sentimental at times, but fuck was it funny too. And secondly, The Aristocrats, maybe I'd watch more documentaries if they were as hilariously depraved as this one.
What else to I have to say? Hmmm......... Not too much really. I'm busy all the time but it's mostly dull work and study stuff. I often wish there was a way for me to connect to LiveJournal when I'm driving to and from work, but then you would be innudated with hundreds of 'interesting' observations on the habits of the Glasgow to Edinburgh commuters.
There is one bright spot ahead though, work agreed to pay my Uni fees for me this year so I recently booked a flight to LA in March. I'm already daydreaming about spending hours sitting in my jammies on Rian's couch :o).......
That's all for now folks, I'll try and make it back again next Sunday.......
