Since my work resume is currently in fighting form from the recent job-hunt, I figured I might as well update my writing portfolio as well today. And you know something?

- Made it through an overtime shift without incident!
- The only person at work more clumsy and accident-prone than yours truly is named Grace. Hee! Irony is funny.

I missed one episode of Primeval last week (3x03) and WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED???
