if it gets too heavy overnight, might have to walk to polytech in the morning. blergh.

It's doing a good job of sprinkling lots of floaty fluffy stuff here at the moment, ground is quite wet tho so it's not settling much - tops of our cars look pretty snowy too! But my camera is crap & so are the outside lights, so no pix of our cars til daylight. If there's anything left by then...

I wear suits and I'm awesome.

FUCK YEAH - DECENT SNOW!!!!! Woot! Might have a 'snow day' tomorrow... city tends to shut down for snow... just like it does for big shakes.
If it wasn't so damn late, I'd be out there making a snowman!!

hopefully there'll still be a few feet of snow left tomorrow :cool:

The more you wait for it, the more you'll be let down.
Now I'm not disappoint.

I was wrong, and I'm happy about it :D

BRB, I might have to make a snowman before I go to bed.

I will be constructing a snowman tomorrow. It is close to my sole goal, with the exception of the consumption of bacon and coffee and whisky to make building more funzors

Hi GetSome

Meet Francis.



He's about 5'4" and he's awesome.

You can hardly see his right arm (on the left) but it's holding up his bamboo broom.

Hmm, so apparently in a job interview which I have today/ Monday for Vodafone a common feature is role playing - the interviewer wants to buy a phone from me and I have to sell it to them. If it's a random phone I am guessing they wouldn't expect me to know the specs of it, so I'm not 100% sure how i should go about that.

Woot!

No work today. Too much snow. We've got close to thirty centimetres here in Woolston. Can't even see the Port Hills, just a wall of grey. I hope Nurse can get home from work.
Now, where did I put that Whisky?

In other news, I'm conjfused and sure there must be an easy fix....sometimes I find my keyboard doesn't type want I want: the letters become all mixed up, e.g. 'lol' becomes 'nrn'.
Any ideas how I can fix this (browser close and reopen works, but there must be a hotkey or something I'm pushing to make it 'speak' in another language.
