tales from an ordinary world

1999-11-08

In amongst the tumult of my working day, I wandered off towards Southgate to meet up with an old net friend. The last time I'd seen her was when we'd done just the same thing about 3 or 4 years ago, and in its own little way it was a repeat performance. I mean sure, we eschewed the food court for the Blue Train (yeah yeah yeah), but all the same...it was calm. This was a Good Thing.

In what seemed a repeat performance of all the other random old friends I've caught up with lately, this friend also indicated a...dissatisfaction with working in the IT industry in general. "There's probably something else I could be doing...but I don't know what". Now, where have I heard that old chestnut before, I wonder ?

Red hair now. Fudge brand "Red Corvette". It's a bit pinker than I expected, but that's fine. It even goes with those sunglasses, in a way.
