So, the ID cards got passed even without Blair present, and now the total smoking ban's come through too. And there's a picture of Ming Campbell in an F1 car in our lobby, of which the only thing I can say is don't you think he looks tired? And yet, I am not disconsolate. Either I'm learning to emotionally ignore politics, or I'm subconsciously aware of a forthcoming Outside Context Problem. Either way, I think it's probably for the best.
Yesterday, trying to follow a link from someone's Memories to a deleted journal, I got the message "Error: couldn't determine journal from arguments." And haven't we all felt that at times? In other LJ peculiarity news, why has 'pic#5051120' reared its ungainly head in my drop-down list of icons?
The Sisters of Mercy are touring again soon. What follows is one of the conditions from their contract with promoters, offered without comment:
"promoter must NOT USE any of the following terms, or any local translation of them, or any word derived from any of them, and will use his best endeavours to avoid using any similar terms of abuse:
doom, goth, death, dark
This applies to the content of all advertising and promoter's announcements"
This afternoon and again tomorrow afternoon, I shall be engaged in what I think is the first formal training I've had in all my years here; appropriately, it's for something with no apparent relevance to my job. What this means to you is that I'll not be tootling around online as per usual, so direct anything urgent to the mobile (even though it may well be off, I'll get to that sooner).
