I owe, I owe, so off to work I go!

Well, it's official - as of Monday I've re-entered the rat race.

I'm not complaining - I'm doing pure organisational psychology work, and it's what I signed up to do at university.

Anyway, that's my excuse for slipping off the tosser charts. I won't be around 18 hours a day from now on, but I'll be online every once in a while to make sure the peace is kept and to yank JJ's chain.

James, now that you are gainfully employed (congrats, BTW), could you lend me a few thousand for that meteorite Daytona that I've been missing?

Great new James.
The rat race isn't so bad. I'm not winning, but I'm not in the back half of the pack either.

Great news, James. Congrats Now don't forget, when you start winning all of those awards, be sure to tell them that it was all the time spent with the lunatics here they gave you all of your practice

Hey thanks, guys! There's plenty to do and nowhere near enough time to do it, but hell, it's good to feel useful again!

Wow! good to hear it.

Psychology seems to be a good profession if they pay you to ask the same question " So how does that make you feel" ? ;-)
