Oct. 5th, 2004 07:33 am*calls EDF Energy*
EDF: A majority of the network in [insert name of place] is still without power. It will be probably this afternoon before everything is restored. Some of the homes have power now, businesses will receive power last (goes on to explain about not wanting to overload network when power suddenly comes back etc, in case I'm an angry customer, but yo I understand)
Me: So should I get into work or not? ^^"
I could wait and call the office later... only it takes 1.5 hours to get to work and people probably won't be in till what, 8:30? Then I'll be at the office at oh, 10am if they tell me the power's back?
........BAH. Looks like I'll have to go. *gets her notebook and MP3 player and everything* That's potentially 3 hours of unnecessary travel on the train... ah well I am getting paid... *sigh* Maybe I can spend black-out time in office learning more sign language. I learned how to do A-Z yesterday XD

Oct. 5th, 2004 01:37 pmFor Mizuki's sake, wear clothes that fit, people!
Wearing something a size (or eight) too small for you doesn't make you look thinner. It makes you look fatter than you actually are.
And ladies, PLEASE, wear bras that fit you. M&S offers free fitting service. Don't delude yourselves. It doesn't do anything at the end of the day, apart from making you a visual horror. Wear things that flatter your body instead of what you want your body to look like (no, you won't lose weight just because you're wearing smaller clothes, didn't you know???)
In other news, D1 fic now has a name, [Strange Relationship]. Yes I was listening to the song on my way to work and it fits.
It took me 2 hours to get to work today. Power is back at work. ^^" <--- disappointed.
This graduate engineer in the office smells. I wonder what she eats.
