I'm watching the aftermath of the Russian School siege on BBC right now. What a mess! Makes you wonder what drives people to do these things....
Had a reasonably productive day. Took the bike in for it's 16000 mile service. Hopefully it's not too expensive!
The weather is supposed to be good this weekend so I may go out for a ride somewhere.

Maybe I gave you all the wrong impression yesterday...I don't use SuicideGirls from work, 'cause I'm not that brave...but I do surf A LOT while doing work...sometimes TOO much! Maybe I'm getting bored...Anyway, these restrictions are going to be slowly implemented over the coming months...ah! Corporate life! So I'm not in trouble and I'm not cancelling my subscription......
Now...I'm considering seeing Urge Overkill in London...

t.A.T.u. is my all time favorite band, but I am listening mostly to death/black metal.

Yumm, fish and chips! Recently, it's been Magnetic Fields like mad. Go see the friend. We have that software at work. I can no longer go shopping on Victoria's Secret or visit Howard Stern's site. It's ridiculous. (felt like addressing your topics backwards this time.)
<***Sigh**** October gave me birthday kiss!! Swooon!!!>
Ok....back to reality.....
Tonight was a bit of a bummer. I had my bi-monthly 1.5 to 2 hour long teleconference to the U.S. Fortunately, I don't have to contribute usually so I can just listen...unfortunately, the conference starts at 8 pm UK time!
Anyway, we found out that they're increasing corporate security on the LAN. One of the...

SuicideGirls is not a porn site in my opinion (and many others opinions as well) though. Anyway if they think it is then they are fools. You can surf from your home as well anyway. I wish I had a birthday kiss from Voltaire though. But I'm OK like that anyway. Have a nice week my friend. See you later.
Bye.
Bye.

as for me being a teacher ... ehhh ... errrr ... pandas don't fit well on pedestals of any shape or height. i merely share my experiences, hoping people can use my mistakes and lessons for their own benefit.
but she IS way too fuckin adorable for me not to have patience with her and kill any stupid motherfuckers who even think about hurting one hair on her head

I spent a good portion of this evening applying a Service Pack + hot fixes to our servers at work. It's not hard work but you do have monitor things and kind of pay attention to what's happening. I get to go back into work tomorrow to finish up...ho hum...

Onion Bhaji, Naan bread....just snacking while I figure out what else to eat...

Nothing particular this time. How are you?

Are you sure we don't work for the same company? The company I work for is British, and we always have these conference calls abominably early in the morning. Luckily, I don't have to contribute.
What bothers me:
Pre-recorded unsolicited phone messages
People who wear sunglasses indoors/at night
Phone calls on Sundays before 11:00 am
Curt, unsympathetic doctors in cahoots with drug companies
Disappointing "prizes" at the bottom of cereal boxes
etc., etc...

Check it out! I've uploaded a few pictures from my motorbike trip to France earlier this year. There's more to come but these are the one's I've got so far.
So tell me what trips (travel--not drug induced!
) you've been on recently....

I'm glad to hear all these. You must look very cool on your bike with all this equipment you have. You must look like the terminator except ofcourse the fact you are wearing a helmet and don't have a gun.
tanja:
I don't know about "been on recently," but as for the near future, I am definitely planning on a trip Down Under...
I do most of my travel in my mind these days.

Then, of course, there's the procession of Labor Day BBQs going on. That means meat eating, beer drinking and such.
Enjoy your ride!
