Morning...

Read through my new contract for work. Was slightly disappointed by the working hours (ie. they're being increased to 8.30-5.30pm, but I won't be the only staff member bitching about working the extra 30 minutes) and had a moment of reading through the internet policy and a slight tinge of guilt. I think it lasted about five seconds of thinking I'll be a better worker, and then remembering how much fun LJ is. *g*

My thanks go to the two boys sitting opposite me on the train (who were so doing it) this morning. It just cheered up my morning ride. )

Heh. Apparently I should be dating A Virgo ) This amuses the heck out of me because my two bosses are Virgos, and one of the bosses at my last work was a Virgo. I get on well with guy Virgo's at work, but I don't think that I could actually deal with them fulltime. If anyone gets the result for a Saggitarian, let me know? I'm just... curious.

I'm tired, but it's my own fault for staying up late (1am... *groan*). I'm wondering what the SciFi series on channel 7 was. I've flipped past it a few times, looks kinda gritty, with lots of orders from the "Ship", so I'm just a little curious.

Hmmmm... the TV guide says it's called The Lone Gunmen. (With a title like that, I can see why it's got a midnight timeslot on a weekday.) Anyone else seen it? Is it any good, or is it just when you're really sleepy that it seems interesting?

Weird Al!

Oh, I forgot to mention! Weird Al! Coming to Australia! In October!

My lil' brother's birthday is the 6th of October, so there's the perfect gift. Tickets for us to both go see him. *g* I talked with Mum, and she said that if he wants to, her birthday present for him will be the airfare from Canberra to Melbourne (and back) for him to come down and visit me. Woohoo!

It's $70 a ticket and on a weeknight, but I'm still thrilled by the idea. I think the tickets go on sale Friday... but I won't have any money until next Thursday... Huh. I knew there had to be a cloud somewhere in that silver lining. *g*

*Wanders off singing Weird Al lyrics:

Since then I've been walking on air (air)
I can barely brush my teeth or comb my hair
'Cause I'm so excited and I really don't care
I've been waiting since last June
For this day to finally arrive
I'm so happy (happy) now just to be alive
