Sorry!

Apologies everyone who has tried to communicate with me by whatever means the last few days. I think after eight months of not having to be anywhere at a particular time and deliver my half of the bargain where their half is to pay me, long hours of intensive work have knackered my brain - hopefully temporarily ( Read more... )

Working is the pits. Who invented the concept, anyway. I seem to need naps to recover a lot.

There is a Pratt Institute. It's best known for design, and I used to work with lots of guys who went there. They were all fashion majors, and were like a combination of the casts of Project Runway and Queer Eye.

And my daughter wants to study foreign relations! I knew there was a reason.

Everytime I've had to input data in relation to the Pratt Institute it's caused me amusement. Especially when a student who was surnamed Shufflebottom undertook study there! Something has to cause a grin in a boring workaday world.

Yes, it is the pits. I remember now!

If there was a 'Pratt Institute' in the UK, as there is in the USA, what would be the criteria for obtaining a place?

Whatever the criteria were, the applicants would fail them.

If you were to undertake a degree in 'Foreign Relations', would there be a lot of holiday sex involved?

*looks wistful at lost opportunity when I chose English and Classics instead*

The Pratt Institute of GB would be an empty vessel you mean?!

How about a Masters? It's never too late to 'learn'!!

Now Foreign Relations I could do!

To hell with Psychology and Counselling!

I think I fancy a new career in Foreign Relations too! I wonder if there's a course in Gov Training next term? We've done drugs, bullying and plan on sex. Foreign Relations sounds right up our street. Let's hope the Plain man doens't sign up too (not that he'd turn up)!

Working is exhausting. But sleep is fun!

And yes, a degree in Foreign Relations would involve a lot of Holiday Sex...with a lovely European man or something...*cough i mean what?*

Working shouldn't be exhausting. One day it'll sort itself out! Seven hours of solid typing a day is pretty hard going though.

Tanned, big muscles, and a sexy accent? (As long as his garlic breath isn't toooo strong though, hey?)

Some might say an exhausting day at work is a productive anf fruitful one! Of course, I don't say such things, but still... Seven hours of typing would be exhausting yes!

Yes, tans and big muscles are a plus...but I'm more into artists! (And he would have to brush his teeth and be nice and minty fresh! :D)
