pezLackadaisical. Hahahahaha. That's the word of the day.
Burned a whole DVD of music to take to work, but the DVD wouldn't be read. Sigh. I think the drive on this computer is broken; it didn't work last time I tried, too, but it worked on coworker's computer. I'd tell IT, but I don't want them poking around this comp since I've installed Semagic and Firefox...
I've discovered that I attract no random attention when I have my hair up in a pony tail. When I'm dressed for work and if I have my hair down, people like to talk to me/taunt me/try to catch my attention by doing pathetic things. ALL of these people are non-English: South Asian or East Asian, 9 times out of 10. And they wonder why people discriminate against them! Have some self-respect! Like I said a long time ago, if you're a minority or if you stand out in some way, then you should check your own behaviour all the more, because your ethnicity/sexuality/weight/piercings/minority-ness is what people will remember you by, and brand you with.
I want to cut my hair short again. Long hair is annoying and too hot. And apparently it draws attention.
Might go to Cardiff in August, during the long weekend! I shall invite![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
tez_plush to go with me. I wonder if the Cardiff Harbour Festival is any good.
Today's a day of rejoicing, because a client has returned the Post Project Questionnaire and we scored very high. And that project was mostly done by me! Me!

Date: 2007-06-22 11:54 am (UTC)Also, I have just been horribly struck by the potential of plush photos in Techniquest (http://www.techniquest.org/start/), which I really can't do because I'm responsible for managing their grant and the Director knows me. And worse, I know they have a policy of assigning staff to track weird visitors because of the kiddies...
