I'm not dead

...in case you were wondering. Maybe you weren't. Heck, I don't even know if anyone reads this, which raises an interesting question along the lines of 'If no-one hears a tree falling...'

...You get what I mean. Maybe you don't.

Seriously, if no-one reads your blog, does it - theoretically speaking - exist? Wow, that's just too much thinky for this girls brain. Quick! To the google machine, for a calming search of hot actresses!

(speaking of, I saw some really quite stunning pictures of Michelle Ryan in The Bionic Woman on dorothysurrenders.blogspot.com)

So...What's been happening at number 77? Well, in short: In August/September I moved back to live with my father for a while, to help him recover from surgery (thankfully pre-scheduled, not emergency) whilst also preparing to start a new job. In September started a new job and moved back to 77. New job excruciatingly dull. Keep zoning out and thinking about desk sex (What? I've never worked in an office before - desk sex has never really been an option for me, and day-dreaming about it hasn't lost the novelty value yet...oh, who am I kidding, it probably never will). Also I keep dropping clangers like:

Boss: Okay, you're going to go through the entire database and update every customers contact info, e-mails, fax numbers, everything.
Me: Great! I'll ring them up and ask them for their phone numbers!

Sometimes the brain does not check the words before I speak.

Still, at least one of my colleagues is happy. In her words: "I'm so happy you're here. Now everyone laughs at you instead of me!"

What else? Where was I? September? Oh, yes. New job. Then, October: GP decides we should "be on a break". Two days later she decides we shouldn't, and I start cursing the day The L Word ever allowed provincial lesbians to see how Lesbian Drama ought to be.

That's pretty much everything. Oh, except I had a really good idea for a Vlog (is that right?) for Afterellen, but I know myself too well: I'm all mouth and no trousers. Oh, plus I only have a bog standard webcam and no idea what software I'd need to be able to record and edit footage. Any help or suggestions (preferable pointing me to free software, I still have no money) would be greatly appreciated.

So hopefully, now, life will finally, finally settle down and I'll actually get to feel like I have a steady job and that I actually live here, my house of nearly six months. One can dream, I suppose.
