Fact: Service Improvement Plans are not an interesting thing to write. Not
even semi-interesting. I suppose they could be, but certainly not here in
Merton. I spent yesterday discussing with a bunch of people what it felt
like to work in the authority. Seems I'm not the only one to be none to
impressed at the moment. Having got over the "we don't have any desks for
your team" problem the premises office are scared - not only do they have to
share an office with my team but we also play music *screams and runs for
the door*
I'm trying to work out how some strange public library standards relate to
Web sites. They don't. They do however do my head in. Last years plan
doesn't help. And I don't think anyone would actually care what I wrote.
Hardly an incentive is it?
Everything else just trolls on really... Weekend in Brighton was good(ish)
still not feeling 100% and of course there's that small matter about a
certain person I met the other week who's overseas. Which of course if
anything else does happen it will result in whatever being a complete
disaster because I don't want it to. How positive can I be at the moment?
*grin*
Maybe I should just go shopping instead.
Lyrics of the moment:
Tell me
Please don't

I have to admire those people who manage to write a good side of A4 as a diary entry at least three or four times
a week. I don't know what I'm lacking, at the moment I think it's probably the energy of putting my thoughts down on
paper... it's too much like effort and there's enough stuff grabbing my attention at the moment that it's not the top
priority.
The office move is still turning out as bad as previous entries, although my desk and files are no longer eight
floors away from my computer and telephone (which of course still aren't working). But today was largely spend at the
BBC being interviewed for a documentary they are producing about
organisations monitoring employees use of the Internet *sigh* Big Brother is out there and watching.. at least I think
I manage to give the impression that it's all hype which is something against the battle of the nasty software companies.
Today, however did manage to establish one fact, despite all the negativity I could summon when I lost my phone not only
did someone not sell it or just throw it in the bin but tried to return it to me but that someone in my office actually went
halfway across London to pick it up for me. Awwww. So a big public thank you to the nameless person who found my phone and
to Len for being an absolutely bloody star. Just two and a half days to survive without a mobile *eeek*
I'm still trying to work out how Wednesday went. Good. I think. But I'm never sure about these things so I guess I'll
have to be patient. At the end of the day it's nice to meet someone who has a whole range of qualities I find attractive
that I never thought I'd find in one person who seems to be at least midly interested back. Now I'm just waiting to see what
will go wrong, cynic or what?
Ohh and another Madonna quote.. I'm gonna have to find someone else to listen to ;-)
Lyrics of the moment:
"Tell me
Love isn't true
It's just something that we do
Everything on offer
Don't ever tell me to stop
Please don't
Please don't tell me to stop."
Madonna "Don't Tell Me" (Music, 2000)
"And I don't know where to start
What can I do - I don't wanna feel blue."
Madonna "Bad Girl" (Erotica, 1992)
