h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Still? Wow...long-term project then. No time, or just not enough help to pull it off?

I heard you couldn't make it to the Dutch Meet ?

Not enough help = no help at all.

No, I wish I could.

Finances, as always.

hfh is very disappointed too.

I have bought a lottery ticket for tonight though.
If I win we'll both be there, in a hired jet.

Too bad you can't make it...she told me yesterday.

But...no worries...I'll see you both again in a few months anyway for the Christmas meet. I know, it's not much, but it'll have to do for all of us...

It's too far away.
Haven't you heard?
The "Christmas" meet in London is going to be the weekend of January 26th.


By the way, I've written a write-up on the town where hfh & I were born.
It's up at Peer Review if you want to read about it.

*continues toquietly*

In that case I might have to pick a weekend to fly over, and visit you two anyway...

What about a chaperone?

~grin~
For who ?

And did you have anyone particular in mind?

For you!!!
You need to protect yourself from us love-starved women

Love-starved women? Is it that bad ?
I always thought that one was about as much as I could handle at the same time

I can't speak for hfh's love-life, but mine is bare.

Sorry to hear that
Unfortunately I've go too much things on my mind at the moment to even think about things like love-life, let alone pursue it

Me too

But I must say that it doesn't worry me in the least. Whatever happens, happens, sooner or later. I kinda like that way of living

Hey Steve, just dropped by to check out what's new around here. Well, more sweet nothings.
My best regards from the best metaphore for boredom: a law firm on Friday afternoon.

Cya soon.

LOL!! Hey Kairo...never thought I'd see you in here again!
And metaphores for boredom...ever tried the biggest port in the world

Sorry Steve, you may have beaten me just now. I try to stay away from there as far's I possibly can. On those odd occasion or two that I landed there, I ended up lost in every conceivable sense.
Besides, their soccer sucks.

I know...and the bad thing is that I have to pass that stadium every day on my way to work, and from work to home....
Oh well...another month and a half, and then I should be finished there

Sounds swell. Wish I could say the same thing for myself - I've been planning to be a goner around here since I moved to the East, but no dice so far.
They got the next project cooking for you? Or are you still unaware of what's gonna happen?

haven't heard anything yet, so maybe they'll just let me sleep in for a week or two before they start nagging me again

Those are the blessings of Dutch employment protection. And if they can't find anything, there's gonna be a handsome severance deal waiting for you if they wanna sack you for it. So actually, the worst thing that can happen to you is - sleep in for a coupla weeks!
