Worky

Much too rushed and busy to post.
Maybe tomorrow - when I am working from home - I'll look up some of the photos of all the work I did on my first house to thrill Lynn. Hee hee.
TTFN.

dive said...

Yup. Until the end of the month when our clocks catch up with yours.
What a dumb system that is.

Some advance warning, Dive - I'm looking into overseas study at options at both the University of London and the University of California. It's going to be a tough choice.

dive said...

Yay, Lucio! You should come to the UEA in Norwich.
It's a great University!
We could have a lot of fun and get absolutely no work done whatsoever.
Which I seem to remember was what being a student was all about.
Er …

Cant wait to see the photos. Ive been known to do a bit of remodeling work. One time I went down to the basement bathroom to repair a 1'x1' piece of drywall. Before I knew it I had the entire bathroom gutted down to the studs. In true British fashion the only thing I saved from the old bathroom was the "throne."

Dive: Unfortunately, my university doesn't have a student exchange agreement in place with the UEA (but I will make inquiries about this at the upcoming Global Mobility Fair.) UL does have some great cinema subjects...

No Lucio come to the University of Gloucestershire! ;)

Ok Dive, I'm waiting to be thrilled. How delicious. Seriously; I'm very interested to see.

Ah...too worky. That is how I feel. I looked at my in basket at work today and wondered if I would ever see the end of the paperwork. Plus, it is nearly time for us to do job reviews. This means that I have to find a socially acceptable way to tell my secretary that she is driving the other secretaries mad.

She may tell me to go to hell. That is what I like about her, she isn't shy about saying exactly what is on her mind. Probably why the other ones detest her so much....

I can't wait to see your "house" work photos. There's nothing sexier than a man who can remodel AND cook!

savannah said...

the hours are catching up with me...i just stopped in to see ...and i have no idea how long i've been dozing here...comfy place, sugar...i'll just sleep on the couch, ok?

Lynn: I know nothing at all about the University of Gloucestershire, except that University of Melbourne doesn't have a student exchange agreement with it. It would be fun to answer the question "Where are you studying?" with "UG!", though. {:-})

dive said...

Hee hee, Mark! I ripped the old throne out, though now I wish I still had a nice Victorian one; these moderns versions suck.

Lucio: Check which English unis yours has a student exchange agreement with and I'll give you the local lowdown on them.
You can't go far wrong with London, though. Some Aussies might tell you to take a brolly but I rather think you'd want to hit the museums, libraries, cinemas, restaurants and theatres rather than stand in the street.
Come over and check it out anyway. Sushi and a ride on the Eye is on me.

Lynn: I've started scanning old building site crap in so maybe there'll be a post later in the day.

Maria: sheesh! Reviews! We've still not done ours from last year. We're too busy. Good luck with your secretary!

Neetzy: I'm afraid that kind of man just doesn't turn me on. Hey ho. I prefer boobies.

Savannah: Sleep well.
xoxox

Lucio: Here's a question: WHAT are you studying?

Volmon said...

Dive: I'm slowly making my way through the online information regarding overseas offerings (mainly in Britain and the US), but I will need to speak to the relevant advisers at my university regarding the shortlist I eventually come up with. All of this is going to take a while as I also have lectures and tutorials to attend - and, of course, essays to write.

As for what I'm currently studying: Art History and Cinema Studies, mainly ... but I also take the odd Philosophy subject when one crops up that seems relevant (this semester, for example, I'm taking Aesthetics). I'm also studying French and Italian - on the side - in the hope that they will come in handy when I eventually find a way of moving to Europe.

Oh, and I'll buy the Japanese meal! {:-})

dive said...

Sorry, San Fran … but with those subjects (especially æsthetics, which Americans cannot pronounce) you've GOT to come to London or Paris, Lucio.

Volmon said...

I think you might be right, Dive.

dive said...

Yay! I'll put the kettle on.
