Very cool! And I don't know anything about drop bears, but "don't trust cute fluffy things" sounds like good advice

Well, actually, I do know a little about drop bears from the game EV Nova, and what I know is they can't be trusted

As for me;

I'm outside gardening in the sunshine and it's warm enough to strip off a little !!!!

Bookmarked! Thanks, I'm going to really really enjoy this!

Having a beer, because I'm worth it, and picturing Geoff's strip tease

Also savoring the relief of being employed again, as of next Wednesday. I just sent back the signed contract. The downside is that I get to work for three weeks in what I suspect is a factory in the middle of nowhere, an hour's drive from Antwerp. Oh well. I'm sure it will go perfecty well with that depressing November weather we're having.

it sounds charming.

well, if it were always fun, they wouldn't pay us to do it, right ?

but you never know, maybe the factory will be really posh on the inside !

what kind of factory is it ?

FlorenceArt · 10-30-2009, 02:07 PM

Hey Zelda, here you are! Where have you been? I take it those clients of yours requested some last minute changes again

Well I don't know yet if it's in a factory, but if it is it will be a paint factory. I hope I get to visit it, but usually there's no time for anything fun

although yesterday i also took a break to translate the main page of the wiki into french.

(what's that ? you didn't notice ???? where have *you* been ???

)

Congratulations, Florence!

If the place is dull then maybe you could catch up with your reading, sketch the landscape, or do some more computer art. Or you could use their paint to make an memorable mural.

Iʻm just jumping in again. Itʻs been a wild and crazy few months lately.

I hope my absence is forgiven! please! : (I just had to jump off the train for a little bit)

YEA!!!!You're back! How are you? Has it been crazy? How is life? How are the kids?

***just a few little questions****

WE MISSED YOU!!!

AAAAGHHHHH no one told me I had to answer QUESTIONS!!!

life: crazy, check!

kids: nutso, but healthy and imaginative, and lost of fun when theyʻre not driving me nuts, check!

Me: new job that is great, but taking 6 credits simultaneously and having three kids in at least 2 (sometimes more!) activities each, and being in charge of a lot of things (they always give us responsible folk much more responsibility... somehow that doesnʻt seem fair, but I canʻt make myself less responsible. Iʻve tried.) all adds up to a very full life! In fact, Iʻm shamed to say I havenʻt even touch my ereader for a few months, I think

Iʻve been reading kidsʻ books to earn AR points instead, and the library only carries those in WMA overdrive or whatever it is

WhaʻdʻI miss???

Welcome back GK! Of course we missed you.
