Tasty! 

At work today I saw a customer's account number had "1337" and told my colleagues about it, and nobody got the reference.

I guess leet is an old person thing now? :(

I still smile to myself whenever I see the number 1138 somewhere.

I think I need a drink due to the ginormous clusterewok that has become American government.

Aha, well we're headed the same way if the Conservatives win the General Election that they blatantly only called early because they believe they'll get a larger majority his time.

Yeah, but we're dealing with what you would get if the UKIP won.

UKIP have become a bit of a joke over here really. In their manifesto they want to ban EU flags and make June 23rd (date of the EU referendum) a national holiday called "Independence Day". :roll:

Yeah, I've been watching the polling numbers.  Good to see that Labour is surging after being behind so long.

I'm nearly at the halfway point for the novel I've been writing, and have been thinking about a pseudonym to publish under.

It's harder than you'd think.

I don't think my real surname is that great, and also my full name seems to be surprisingly common, so I need something with more googleability. (That has to be a word by now, surely?)

Hmm...

Eh, I don't know, there quite a few authors with common names, I think.

 

But maybe something with initials?

 

 

Finally can pop on here, after my wi-fi was being a butt, lol.

There is apparently a famous American inventor with the name Andrew Beard.To make it extra awkward he also has the same middle initial as me. :p

I tried rearranging my name to use my middle name as either my first name or surname, but they ended up being authors already. I came up with a few others who for various reasons weren't okay... two of them were pornstars. :lol:

I think I have one now, but I'm not 100% set on it yet.

I had a job interview.  Thought it went well, but the guy said he was going to e-mail me asking for references.  It's been several hours now and I still haven't gotten it.  It makes me worried he was just saying that to get me out the door.

Fingers crossed it's just that they haven't gotten around to it yet. I don't think my current job ever asked for references in the end, even though they said they would. Good luck!

 

 

As for me, I've been struggling with car trouble for ages, and it's finally giving up the ghost. The head gasket has gone, and I've held it together this week with a temporary fix but it's time to let go. Dropping it off to the scrap yard tomorrow. :(

It's a bit sentimental to me really, as I bought it off my grandad a year before he passed away, so I'll be sad to see it off.
