I saw a bit of the Tour de France today on TV and thought of you, Sundae. York to Sheffield ... did it go near your neck of the woods?
Happy tonight because I finished another revision of the neurotox article I'm supposed to submit by September, and which is irritating me to the point of giving me hives. Sent it off to my superior in WV and will hope for a thumbs-up. I had to rewrite the entire thing to make it less 'scholarly' and more practical. Live and learn ... And happy because I finished my first week at the new job and have a new week to look forward to. Tons of work and meetings, but this is not a negative. I wish there were more than 24 hours in a day.

You've not been paying attention, Ortho! Go to the Yorkshire thread immediately to see Sundae's report. Oh, and you're on report, yourself!

What's making me happy today is in a few hours, I'll be at the Cher concert and the opening act is Cyndi Lauper. :-)

That doesn't sound like a queen at all. ;-)

Would it make it sound more queenish if I mentioned there were about 2000 guys on Grindr at the concert? lol

Finished trimming the hedge, so that's another horticultural chore disposed of.
I used to use a flea powered electric trimmer but managed, on two occasions, to cut the cable. Thankfully the RCD did its stuff and the dubious thrill of 240 volts up the Carruthers left arm was avoided. Twice. For this relief, much thanks. A couple of years ago I decided that enough was enough and bought a petrol trimmer. It was worth every penny. (Thank you Mr Kawasaki ![]() The cutting head is almost twice as long as that on the electric jobby, and a damn sight more powerful. OK, I know there's an element of big boys toys at work here, but so far I have avoided the temptation to set course for British Columbia and fell a stand of Giant Redwoods. ![]()

Had an interview today...it went well. I don't think I'll get the job...I would be responsible for 1200 people! The most I've ever handled at one time is 40...I could do it though.
I don't know if I'm more confident in my old age or drunk or in my Matrix zone...I had little nervousness through the whole process. |

And that was my thought too...I clearly noted in my resume that I have supervised up to 40. She mentioned that I might be better off a step below the position I applied for...I told her I could do the job in question, but if she thought the step below was better, I was fine with that too.
