My apologies for not having written for so, so long, but you see, right after that last entry I was abducted by a tall, thin man who calls himself 'the Doctor' and travels around the universe in a blue box that's bigger on the inside than it looks on the outside.  So I've been travelling all over the universe with him for the last 8 months or so.  ( Read more... )

Blah.  I'm sick with a rotten cold and my Facebook Scratch and Win application won't let me in!  I think I might watch a movie tonight instead, or maybe I'll work on that Heroines moodtheme.

Yes, I have once again re-done the forums over at the Study.  I was getting really tired of all the bots signing up.  We had over 1200 members, and barely any of those were real members.  So I deleted those forums and I have re-installed a new version of phpBB, which I hope will be more secure and prevent all those sign-ups.  Anyway, I wanted to ( Read more... )

I'm on time this time!  YAY!  A very happy birthday to ladyoz.  And it's mine on Sunday. :D

How does one prove in writing that one has excellent oral communication skills?  It's one of the key criteria on a job application here.  Okay, so written are included there too, and I think the application itself should mean you would be classed as having excellent written skills ... but oral?  How do you know if someone has excellent oral skills ( Read more... )
