Castaway

That is the answer to the question that has won me a free trip to any Odeon cinema I choose, and thus a word to remind me of the high point of my day. Plus, it's about how I feel right now, being alone in the office with a huge mountain of work and no freedom in sight for a good two or three hours.

I'm stuck reporting ultrasounds. I hate ultrasounds. But they're not getting done by anyone else, so I'm stuck with them. I get stuck with a lot of things in this job. Like the phones. And the ITU reports. And Sarah Willams' tapes.

Obvious Statement of the Day: "You have a very dry sense of humour." This from Farat, with whom I chatted a few minutes ago to alleviate the boredom of Julia's droning voice and the monotony of ultrasound reports.

May skip onlining altogether today -- I have to return my copy of Blair Witch 2 to Blockbuster (yes, I know, I said I hated it; I did because it's mindless but that's all I seemed to want on Sunday night. One day I'll rent Akira, which is all the anime my local Blockbuster has). And I'm tired. Oh, so very tired.

So, hey, leopard_lady; when do you want to see X2 again? I have a free ticket now! E-mail me and we make plans.
