deep end

Wednesday, February 20th, 2008

work has just bought visual studio for me to do coding. which is sort of funny, seeing as i don’t even run windows normally. it is a good thing, but i’m proceeding with caution. application programming has always sort of scared me, and i’ve always seen trying to do programming on windows/.NET as spreading myself too thin.

but it’s another skill, which in the long run will make me more indespensible/hireable. which puts my mind at ease a little considering other things on the horizon.

assorted

Tuesday, September 4th, 2007

all last week i’ve been surrounded by fundraising chocolates. this morning i finally thought i might get one. i’m in need of sugar or something. i ventured to Judith’s desk with such purpose. but all i got was a bemused look from Judith. they’d all gone.

the next best thing i could find was the arnotts family assortment. which really isn’t best by any stretch.
