I has a less lulzy Brig icon!
Here is Babelcolour's wonderful tribute to Nick Courtney, who died last week. Sad times.
In the News today...
Booked the Doctor Who Experience for next Thursday!! whooo! :D It will be awesome! I'm told you get to pilot the TARDIS at one point. Oh. May. Ga!! *FREAKS OUT*
Expect lots of pictures of proskynesis and me pissing around the exhibits and generally making nuisances of ourselves. I wonder if we'll get thrown out. XD
Speaking of London, I have a vague ambition to, one day, go to Buckingham palace and get a photo of myself giving it the middle finger. And possibly doing the same to one of the beefeaters. I'd kind of like to do the same at that fucking royal wedding that's coming up. Anyone know if there will be protests? I hope there will be. I want an excuse to carry a 'Tory scum' sign, and that seems like the perfect time. :P
Anyway, in other news...
Does anyone have any tips on what to do in an interview!? D:
I'm kind of panicking at the moment because I have seriously NEVER had a job interview before!! I mean, it's only a Post Clerk job, but... What do they ask you? What do I say? HOW MANY TIES SHOULD I WEAR!? Oh god, do I need nicer shoes? My smartest shoes are kind of worn down and I can't afford new ones. Do I risk it? *panic panic panic panic*
They usually ask if you want to ask questions, right? What the hell do I ask? I kind of want to know if I'll ever be able to increase my hours (for moar monies in the lead up to Finland moot). But I have no idea if that's against interview etiquette.
Even though this is totally not going to happen... What if they offer me a medical plan with Bupa or something? I have a moral objection to Bupa! What do I do? What if they're insulted? They're a solicitors specialising in personal injury claims - what if they like private medical care above the NHS?! Aaaagghh!
What if they tell me to do a dance!?! I'M TERRIBLE AT DANCING!
What if they make me take my trousers off!?
What if they ask me to kill a man?
WHAT THE HELL DO I DO!?!?! D:
And finally...
My Apple products are being weird. First Poddy Mk2's headphones socket breaks down. Now iPhoney refuses to actually ring when someone calls it. It's not on silent, either. I CHECKED! I even used the home phone to test it.
Just checked it again and it's working now. Strange. :s
