Just got offered a blog editing job. :-) Freelancing may yet work out! Going to take Fri evening off from writing, though... need a break.

alihale @rossdavis Got savings for several months, also have some income outside Porism (regular blog work). I have planned this, don't worry! :-P
alihale @explodey Interesting about the dates. I was taught to put "10th January" etc - I wonder if it's an American custom becoming wider spread?

alihale Bag of fun-sized chocolates came with stationery. This is a new one in Office Diet temptations... "Are your suppliers making you fat?"
alihale "Information and communication" has the synonym "censorship" in one of our govt lists. Suspect someone with sense of humour wrote that one.
alihale @rossdavis 1st guy had only been in local govt a week, & was only told about event yesterday. Not even registered. Was a good start... :-S
alihale Tired after spending the day training four people to use our software, but it beats being stuck in the office ...!
alihale @TimBrownson Will take a look when I'm home from work and see if I can keep your inimitable style whilst allowing for DLM's audience! :-)
