Just for the record

Jerms - a Brief flicker and then gone again.

I'm sleepy. But there's not much point going to sleep now, because it's 3:30 am and I have to be at work at 8. I would have gone to bed much earlier, but my womble of a manager thought that I could happily cope with working evening shifts (ie. finishing at midnight, and then spending an hour walking home 'coz the busses aren't running any more) one night, and then working early morning the next morning. At least I got out of starting at 6:30am, by arguing that the busses weren't running that time of the morning. I feel stupid now for not noticing the inconsistencies in that argument.
Pity I only checked which shift I was doing today (this morning) after finishing my shift last night (at midnight); too late to complain to my manager. I'm sure they didn't do it on purpose; just didn't notice, same as me.

And I just spent the last two ish hours trying to find a particular conversation so I could post a fact they were trying to find - people were debating which bridge in Australia it was that had "Nippon clip-on's" to widen it. For the record it wasn't even an australian bridge, it was the Auckland harbour bridge. But I didn't find the conversation, so it's probably a moot point anyway.

And I feel like typing more now, but I have nothing left to say and don't want to start blithering.

mmmcoffee!
