Had a really tedious time at work today. We were looking for people aged 16-24 who wear glasses and do not wear contact lenses and would consider wearing them! Huh. I found one all evening.

I suppose I was due a tedious time at work after the excitement I had getting to work. Today's discovery: the snowstorm that looks very pretty from your bedroom window is highly dangerous to walk in. Well, I'm sure those of you who live in places where it snows frequently know this, but in London we get something like 2 inches of snow every 5 years - blizzards are not a common occurrence! I'm thinking this snow has fallen as a special treat for me 'cause I didn't get round to making a snowman with the last lot, but I'm working for the next two days, so won't get a chance to. If it's still here on Sunday, I'll go out and make one while Tim & Peter & Richard laugh at me through the window.

I have made some new userpics, bringing my total up to 14 (of 15 allowed), with a space for the octopus pic I still don't have. I finally have an angry picture! Contemplating doing artistic things with some of my old pics which have been around for ages, but I don't know what yet.

We get A Lot Of Snow, and people still take awhile to get their "snow legs" back for the season... it's weird. Take December 25... we got 'bout a foot of snow. And one of my coworkers broke her arm going for a walk. Not good. Last year, I fell no less than twice.

Thusfar, I seem to be doing OK... that day, I had to hike into the office (for some reason, snow removal doesn't happen on holidays around the office park...), and survived with just a really sore leg. -rt

Snow?

Hmm... Not much snow here. My boss took 6 hours to get to his home in Cambridge last night by train, so I guess people just aren't used to it in this country. I'm sure we'll happily laugh at your snowman efforts if there's still snow left on Sunday as it's all melted around here (*meep*). Oh, and guess who got a live journal? :)
