[#1031748]

After a promising start, I seem to have achieved very little today, save a collection of graphs looking somewhat like this...

Which whilst probably meaningless, it is at least vaguely interesting! So, what earth-shattering advances have you made?

I've done some sitting, scratched myself a bit, thought about packing in smoking, and taken some out of date anti-biotics (dont ask, and I'd advise others not to try it). All in all, a fairly productive day.

What emits at 560nm following excitation at 460nm?

I'm on my way home now but am concerned that I'll barely sleep tonight for pondering!

I have produced much of the material for an unauthorised office magazine. By horrible coincidence, I was reminded of the firm's IT policy while I was busy. Apparently I was meant to be doing something entirely different. 🙂

I've got a commission to write a feature, sorted out the fuses for the lighting in a block of flats, got a bike shop owner to add his signature to the back of a driving license photo in exchange for three fresh espressos, changed some cash into Euros for tomorrow, sorted my CV, done a wee bit of networking with old friends to sort a new job, and retained a solicitor. That leaves 17 things on the To Do list, and actually very little achieved.

Finally got the green light to add some social media to our portal. Okay, it's only a blog and forum to begin with, but it's progress 🙂

Probably a bunch of other stuff but can't remember anything particular outstanding.

Think I'll go and make some Chai Tea now ...

Pretty good day

"What emits at 560nm following excitation at 460nm?"

Something with a long stokes shift? Big lifetime fluorescence molecule?

I had great sushi. That was about it!

Beat my best score on brickbreaker on the wackberry on the train to work.

It was pretty draining, so I've really had to take it easy for the rest of the day.

Took the wife out for lunch at a new restaurant, which was very pleasant.

Trained two new freelancers and secured a decent amount of new work as well.

1. Had a shave before going to work - first in a very very long time
2. Exchanged my USD back to GBP following last weeks jaunt to the US - but overlooked filing my expenses that I really need to recover ASAP
3. Moaned all day to my colleagues that the Flu jab has made me feel really rough and the GP wants me to go back on Friday for the Swine Flu jab - fat chance
4. Got my client to sign off the requirements for his project
5. Bought a curry for dinner/tea/supper whatever

Cut the cock and balls off of a fibreglass reindeer, then with nifty application of expanding foam and car body filler made it look like rudolf had never had any. Then fixed his broken antler.

When people need these jobs doing why do they call me? Its not like I advertise.

I've now got rudolf's cock and balls sitting on my work bench, got them off in one peice - look a bit like a bike saddle. Anyone want them for soup?

Made sure that 94 prisoners got their daily methodone then managed to get 30 of them to work. Convinced one it would be better to go behind his door for a roll check than get nicked for not. Acted as a social worker for one who'd had some bad news about his family & social workers. Sorted a refund out for some jeans for another. Did a target search on one & found a phone charger wire inside his telly. Found out for another when his cat D board's sitting. Bollocked another for pushing in at the meds queue, calmed another one down who was going ape cos his meds weren't there. Called healthcare for one cos he had chest pains, turns out he's not dying.
Etc, etc, etc.

I had a morning of lectures with Rupert Sheldrake, author of "Dogs That Know When Their Owners are Coming Home", "The Sense of Being Stared at: And Other Aspects of the Extended Mind", you know, morphic resonance and all that 🙂

Drove my youngest to nursery and drove to and from work for the first time. Stressful and exhilarating in equal measure.
