^Whoaa Snow? At this time? Brrrr!
Faran, sorry to hear that the guy who hired you is acting like that.

That's just so not right!! He should be nice to you and don't expect that you already know everything!

Did you do anything special for the weekend??
talliann
Apr 15 2007, 07:58 PM
Hmm, nothing special. I just went shopping since all my friends birthdays are coming at the end of this month and in May

. What about you?
Ratty, you should moved to Europe. Today it's been 25ºC here

We had 28°C too today... beautiful blue sky... it was gorgeous outside. I just wish we had a lake or something close.

Oh and for you Fahrenheit ppl: 28°C is about 82°F. 25°C is 77°F.
I had to poke myself all day and tell myself: it's April... 15th!!! It's NOT summer!

Weather was lovely in Dutchieland too, the sun is already shining even though it's still very early!
Ratty, so you lived in Germany for two years? That's very nice, but all I want is to leave Europe some day. LOL
Have a lovely day all, I have a meeting with my job-coach later today.

Not really looking forward to it but ok, I guess I don't have a choice.

Hey all!
Just come back home from Naples...had a very busy day attending two conferences on Medieval Dutch Literature...and the weather was soooo nice there...what a pity that i had to stay in an overcrowded classroom and put up with those BORING five hours...

woke up this morning with a splitting headache...listened to classical music and relaxed in the afternoon...seems my headache has definitely gone...

Apr 21 2007, 02:07 PM
Hey all! Sorry about your fall Ratty. I hope everything heals up quickly.
Well - the new job didn't work out at all. That nasty old man was more than I could take. I finally quit this past Tuesday. I feel more disappointed for myself than I do about letting them down. Ah well, back to the job hunt.
Everyone seems to be talking about their local weather so I'll just join in. It was 35 C yesterday afternoon, and at 9 a.m. this morning it was already 30 C. Maybe summer has finally arrived in southern Ontario.
Has anyone been watching Drive? I turned my neighbours and Nadia on to it and it's totally fab. Oh Maja - btw - it stars Nathan Fillion, and there are quite a few other Firefly alumni involved.
Mal! Totally shiny.
MajaBee
Apr 21 2007, 02:30 PM
Î'm watching it, Faran! I mean... Nathan...

you don't have to tell me twice to watch it!

It's not really my type of show (car race

) but it seems, they're focusing a bit more on the characters now, so it doesn't get too boring.
I always hated Fred in Angel but it was nice to see Amy Acker there, too, and I wondered why "Pickett" LOST his nose band aid.

Apr 25 2007, 08:10 AM
Good morning everybody! Wish you a wonderful day. Weather is fantastic (maybe a little bit too good) here in Germany, hot and sunny and since two or three weeks we haven no rain here
hey Faran, very sorry to hear that about your job

anything new now concerning the hunt?
Faran
Apr 25 2007, 09:37 PM
I've got two possibles right now Kyra, hopefully one of them will come through. If not, I'll just keep getting the paper and sending out resumes.
Selkie
Apr 25 2007, 09:41 PM
Good luck, Faran!
MajaBee
Apr 25 2007, 10:18 PM
Faran, Nadia: Have you heard the bad news?
About Drive...
Ratty
Apr 25 2007, 10:20 PM
they didn't even give it a chance!
MajaBee
Apr 25 2007, 10:23 PM
No, they didn't... but it's FOX, so nothing new there?
Robbie: Please tell Ian to stay away from FOX shows, they just don't last long.

Hey all, still on the job hunt, but there are listings every day in the paper for someone with my qualifications, so I'm hoping something comes along soon.
I went out for lunch with some friends on Saturday and I guess someone decided I didn't need an outside mirror on the passenger side of my car. I came back to find it hanging off the side of the car by a few wires. I've contacted insurance and am going up to the collision centre today.
Will my bad luck with that car never end?
I sat down to watch Drive last night, having completely forgotten that it's been cancelled. I still can't believe that they only gave it 3 weeks! It was only intended to be a minimal short arc show anyway; they should have just let it play out.
MajaBee
May 1 2007, 01:28 PM
3 weeks? I wish they'd gotten so much...
Drove premiered on April 15th and they pulled the plug on April 24th.... not even 10 days and 4 episodes later.

You guys ever tried to listen to "The Two Doctors"? The link is to the left side of this page. I never thought that "geek" would be so entertaining.

I've just came back from a long weekend to the lake , the weather was fine and I am completely relaxed... I really don't look for tomorrow!!
Faran, I hope your bad luck with the Bug will end veeeeery soon but I prefer to hear that you have found a new job!!
..and Fox did it again!! gah!!

I'm getting a little bit excited now, only 13 days left...........
MajaBee
May 2 2007, 11:21 AM
Time flies by, doesn't it? You seem to be in good company btw... I got an email from a good friend last week, telling me she got married 2 weeks ago (and yes, I am still pretty bummed that she didn't tell me before... since she seemed to have planned it for quite a while), then the brother of a friend of mine is getting married at the end of May and the sister of another friend of mine is getting married in July or August. She and her future-hubby decided to go on holidays in Australia and get married there in secret but someone spoiled it and now everyone knows about.
So, it seems a bit like everyone's getting married this year (or next year... 2 other friends of mine are talking about getting married next year).
Just I remain the spinster...
kyra
May 3 2007, 06:09 AM
hey Maja, I believe that there is someone waiting for you outthere
I'm in a very good mood today, because I got very important and good news. My mom was at the doctor a few days ago and she got very bad news about her blood test and it seems to be that the blood illeness she had hardly survived when she was twenty came back. The doctor decided to make test again to be sure and the last two days were days of hopes and fears. I thought about cancel the wedding and my mom thought about her last will...

but now the second test shows that everything is fine and the first one was wrong. The doctor said that it was a mistake from the laboratory.

I'm very happy now
Faran
May 4 2007, 01:01 AM
Goodness Gracious Kyra! I'm certainly glad that everything's okay, but whoa, how nerve racking! I guess that's why they say doctors just "practice" medicine - cos they never seem to get it just right.
Selkie
May 4 2007, 02:07 PM
OH dear, kyra, that's just scary! I'm glad it turned out to be ok.

OMG.... it'd be a very bad nightmare Katja! I'm really glad that the test was wrong and that your mother is OK!!
...and no kidding you are excited about the incoming wedding!! I am excited too!! (I'm always excited for my friends' wedding...!)
