positive words or wisdom from miss crow


for anyone who's been feeling low...

snip from everyday is a winding road

I'm just wondering why I feel so all alone
Why I'm a stranger in my own life
Jump in, let's go
Lay back, enjoy the show
Everybody gets high, everybody gets low
These are the days when anything goes

Everyday is a winding road
I get a little bit closer
Everyday is a faded sign
I get a little bit closer

psst. I'll tell you a secret...
the project I've been working on has finally launched *shock horror* I'm still not quite over the shock of it all.
It's a beautiful sunny day here today and I've taken a break from cycling today to give my poor bell ringing thumb a rest... when it's cold and pedestrians in London have no concept that there are bicycles as well as cars on the road... I need to ding my bell lots on the way home. Last night was well chilly!

My tube journey was most strange this morning as I had the overwhelming feeling that I was either really early or really late for work. There was no one on my train... or on the down escalator... I had to seriously think to myself if it was truly Friday or if I had just gotten up to come to work on a Saturday!? Hmm it's Friday... and I was on time to work... stranger things have happened.

follow-through phobia bus conductors and naughty auto generated passwords

okay so there was a strange incident yesterday. I was on the bus on the way to supper with miss W we paid for our tickets to Highbury barn where we were meeting some of her work friends for supper... the nice conductor promised to let us know when the stop was... as he collected our fares with one of those new ticket machine thingies... he let the ticket print out and then tore it 3/4 of the way across and then handed over the little machine to us individually motioning for us to each tear off the final 1/3 of the ticket... how very odd... is this indicative of some sort of follow through phobia? Or do I simply notice very odd behaviours in people?

probably the latter

on another more humorous note... once of our microsite partners today produced a hilarious error... in signing up for the service their systems generate a random password taken from the English dictionary... the password can only be 8 words long and thus truncates the random word at the 8th letter... Apparently the test team requested a change to their password issuing system when they were assigned the password 'punish me' while testing! LOL! how hilarious is that! it truncated 'punishment'!

how much Dutch chocolate can one PC production team consume during a 9h period? approximately 600g /21.1 oz to be exact... won't be needing supper after all!

happy turkey day

to my family back home and to my friends too of course!

received this really cool shirt from my mum in the post today. It says trick on the front and treat on the back in orange writing... it's black and as you can guess it's a hallowe'en shirt :0) too cute!

the weekend was nice and relaxing, didn't end up in Antwerp as intended but chilled a lot and had great dinner with friends and a nice long bike ride. Monday morning, however... came too quickly.

less than a month till my trip to NYC getting well excited about it!
