LOL, inspirational titles are us indeed. I didn't get up to all that much yesterday. Yeah, true, I went to see Batman Begins, and did a bit of shopping, but not much else than that.
This installment of Batman - good movie, far grittier and 'realistic' than the previous four movies - Batman back in 1989 had the soundtrack by Prince, this time around it's Nickleback, need I say more LOL - and going back in mind to Constantine ruining the Nickleback song and his own chances in American Idol - and yes, I did love the character in the comic books, much more than Superman or Spidey or any other of the superheroes. Was talking to LHO last night, commenting about the film, and a line for the review jumped out at me from the general conversation - 'the ninjas, of course, the ninjas' LOL.
And bought three DVDs yesterday as well - This Is Spinal Tap, Being John Malkovich, and Goodfellas. One day I will go into a DVD or CD store and not need to buy any because I have bought all the DVDs I want, but that day is far far off. Garden State was out, but it was full price, wait a few months, it will come down to the sales bin :)
Today, hmm was quite a rough one at work. One of our major systems got an upgrade over the weekend, and of course, it wobbled a bit in the morning before crashing big time in the afternoon. We can TAKE orders, we just can't provision them, without doing backflips and loopholes and all sorts of sneaky devious stuff. Very frustrating. Add into the mix LDU saying every five minutes how good she feels giving up smoking (36 hours and counting), and how she will never date a smoker ever again. Yeah, I'm supportive and all, but why is it that the most ardent anti-tobacconists are the ones that used to be the most ardent on the other side?
Add to that mix as well, a couple of emails from V into the middle of a busy busy day, needing clarification on the whole situation. I try not to think deep personal thoughts at work, and it was exceptionally busy today - at least this morning - so sent a quick reply back at morning tea, and that was about it. And then the systems crashed grr, taking my mind even more off things.
Hmm, am contemplating my blog and the way I write this evening. Sometimes I guess I am a bit flippant in the way I write, or, alternately, I put too many thoughts together at once in the one paragraph so it looks like a bad topic at the start is following on to what is a good topic at the end of a paragraph. Can see how it is a bad habit to get into perhaps.
Nothing a good sleep can't solve, I'm guessing - eek, I have my first permanent employee assessment tomorrow, what with a temp team leader who I'm not sure of, and with my fears of incompetence in the background and all.
Later peeps
