Tower Block Office

Aug 22, 2008 11:13

I'm doing two things today I've never done before:

1) working from home
2) visiting a police station to hand in criminal evidence of a robbery

My temporary office, located in a charming tower block that overlooks the East End, has run out of coffee and biscuits; a trip to the cornerstore may be in the cards. I've got All Flashback Alternatives ( Read more... )

work is a four-letter word, video killed the radio star, sing your life, i'm throwing my arms around paris, we are the pigs

So what number actually are you? The whole thing has got me in a bit of a tiz.

Are you working from home too? If you press your ear against a door and hear some loud 80s music, that will be me. ;-)

No - stuck in the office :-(

Day so far very mellow! Have to leave soon for some police action.

How's your day going? ;-)

Hmmmm, a young Morrissey? What's his name (or the name of his band?)

Blah, I'm relatively certain I tried to read a Joyce Carol Oates book and it totally pissed me off and I gave it away before I'd even reached 100 pages.

WHat the fuck does "fuck about" mean!??!?!

I've never read anything by her before. Just reading "The Falls" and totally hooked! It's like the novelisation of Sylvia Plath and Dynasty combined.

Fuck About means Wow. :-)

I've heard that since she's so prolific there are a lot of good ones and a lot of bad ones.

Huh. Well, fuck me!
