oh, I hate being at work when there's nothing to do! Can you write at the office? (I often don't like to get the creative/work headspaces mixed up) good lord imagine if my work required a creative headspace!

no word from the latest interview yet?
I dare not start writing at work - partly because of the subject matter and partly because they are, technically, paying me to be here. Doesn't seem right somehow.

nah, not a bloody peep out of them, and they promised to let me know ON (last) Friday.
I mean, I'm trying to schedule a nervous breakdown here! They could be a little more sensitive to other people's schedules! If they give me the damn job, I'll have to cancel the whole thing.
I have the opposite problem. I work with a large group of women who are obviously descended from lizards. It is 96 degrees outside and they don't want to turn on the air conditioning. IF it falls much below 80 degrees in the offices they start bitching about being cold.
My sympathies on the nothing to do front... I hate that feeling, because I too have a guilt complex about working on my own stuff on company time.
I can't work on my own stuff here anyway because I'm a little anal about the environment in which I write: it needs to be very, very quiet and I need to be alone as I sometimes talk out ideas OUT LOUD and get quite worked up about them *looks around shiftily - no one needs to know just how cracked I am*
