Happy New Year.
My mobile seems to think the default word when I’m texting 9-6-8 is ‘yot’. Note: I do not love yot. I did not wish yot a happy new year above. Yottube isn’t a popular video site. Yot was not the ‘Time’ Person of the Year in 2006. It’s giving me the irrits.
Seeing as it’s the post New Year lull, I’m taking advantage of the downtime at work by doing my compulsory yearly online induction. Someone hits you in the face. Is there a problem here? Not any more than being forced to look at stock workplace photo after stock workplace photo. Talking about that, if someone falls asleep at work all the time and you make a video of it, it does not constitute bullying. In my eyes anyway. And the other person doesn’t work here anymore. Because he kept falling asleep at work.
Christmas was the usual mix of reflection and hypocracy, but this year had the added bonus of YOU’RE GETTING MARRIED NEXT YEAR SO HERE’S A BUNCH OF BORING BUT USEFUL THINGS. However, I did get some camera porn that reminded me how awesome analogue photography is. And I’m not just talking about film- this is a world where you don’t get the benefit of automatic light meters. Or being able to see what you’re focusing on. Plus, it reminded me of other cameras I can get a hold of, so I’m going to go crazy working out what works and what doesn’t and possibly do some basic chemistry in the process.
