Watched the first episode of this last night and it was actually quite good. It's from the makers of Sex in the City of which I was never a big fan, and had actually forgotton that fact until close to the end of the episode when the main character gave a monolgue just like Carrie Bradshaw used to in Sex in the City.
But apart from that, I thoroughly enjoyed it :-) It sorta reminded me of Northern Exposure but it's not quite so kooky. Must be 'cos it's set in Alaska. I'm not saying it's as good as Northern Exposure, oh no. In fact it will never be as good as Northern Exposure :-)
Santa's bringing me Season 4 for Christmas! Yay!
Had a pretty good day in work yesterday, not that I generally get bad days in my new job but yesterday just seemed to .... just go well. I've been given a job to fill and haven't been having too much luck on finding the right people for it even though the ad is up on Seek etc. It's a very specialist role to do with a specific peice of EDM software. I've since found out from a very close friend that EDM stands for Electronic Dance Music (think that's right) as well as Electronic Document Management. There's probably more people with an interest in the first EDM rather than the latter, but it's the latter that I need.
So imagine my surprise when I had three CV's emailed to me yesterday and two interested phone calls! Jump for joy? I almost fell off my chair! So I'm quite happy that I seem to be getting some where at last. And it all happened due to someone else's blog. Good stuff this bloging malarky :-)
But with the good comes the bad.
I was not a happy bunny last night. They are widening the freeway which isn't that far from our usually quite cul-de-sac and the barstewards kept waking me up in the early hours of this morning. Disrupted sleep makes Miss M more of a bitch than usual...grrrr..... as the neighbour next door very nearly found out when he decided he'd like to drill a wall at 8am on a Saturday morning! Oi, shit for brains some of us have been working all week and relish the lie in on a Saturday morning and I really do not appreciate being shocked out of bed thinking the bloody wall is gonna come down you fuckwit! ....grrr...snarl....grrrr
And the reason the freeway is being widened, for those of you who are intrigued, is because of the Lane Cove Tunnel. Yet another waste of money because people won't use it 'cos it will cost too much on the tolls so Epping Rd will still be as packed and cramped with cars every morning with people trying to get to work in North Ryde. Boy am I gald I don't work there! BTW, you can see the Freeway widening in the pic - fun huh?
Though it does remind me that I really should get an E-Tag for the car, especially as more and more new roads are Tag only. Which has now reminded me that I need to pay my bills. and it's nearly pay day! Woo hoo!
