I just saw an ad for Trance Nation America Two on the TV. The reason I looked was the music, so why did they need a girl in a bikini posing on rocks???? Now I see what looks like a laptop, a tv and HiFi humping????? btw that one is for MTV2.com. Ok I admit it I am watching Undressed on MTV

Doh

I have been looking at the photos from a rafting trip I went in Colorado. I had them scanned when they were processed. I have been trying to workout why the order is back to front. Then I remembered that the disposable camera winds the film back into the film case rather than the other way round.

Now that I have had the weekend to think my options they work out like this,

1) Try and get a transfer into the parent company, that would at least save the year I have spent on my green card application.

2) try and get a job in D.C. I would like to stay in the area, I have my reasons.

3) If it looks like I am not getting job by November then I will pack up my life and ship it back to Scotland. Then take the time in between November and my Flight for Xmas to do some travelling.

I can’t belive this, it is like reading a book except this time my friends and family are phoning me to check I am ok. I had a panic email from my mum saying that she can’t call the US, all she could get was recorded message. I replied to an email to my sister that she forwarded onto my mum.
I first heard the news when I drove into work, while stopped at traffic lights I heard someone in the car next to me shouting “FUCK”, I guess he just heard.
We didn’t do any work today just watched the news first hearing that the first tower had collapsed, then the second, then a report that there was another plane circling Dulles Airport which turned out to be false. This is just too much to belive
I don’t know of anyone who would have been working in either the Pentagon or the in the World Trade center but my heart goes out to the friends and family of people who do.

Friday night was dinner at Sunflower Vegetarian Cafe It was amazing to have a choice of more than 2 things on the menu. I would recommend it if you get a chance. After dinner we moved on to Iota to listen to some music.
Saturday breakfast was bagels in the sun. Then work for a while untill I gave up on trying to get something to work. After a trip into D.C. I met up with JW, DS and few other people for a night at the Black Cat Brit pop night. Back home by 3:30am after being stopped on Route 50 by the police. They were stopping everyone looking for drunk drivers. I had only had one beer so I was fine. I am now tired but happy…..
