More links. I am a link-gathering fiend!

• Twelve Ways Bush Is Stealing the Ohio Vote.
• For those of you wanting to get the fuck out, Slate explains how to move to Canada.
• For those of you determined to stay and fight, they also explain how.
• And for everyone, there's this.
• For a cheap laugh, go here. Right-click on the photograph of Dubya. Select "Properties". Look at the file name. I love Netscape.
• ktl has things to say.
• So does mip, here.
• More moving to Canada info: are you a skilled worker?
• Oi, the stupid, it hurts. Also, fairly frightening that the doctor actually said that.

Dear coworker, please stop trying to engage me in conversation. I'm here to do my job, no to be social, and frankly, I'm in a foul mood, what with the election and the fact that my ovaries are trying to strangle my uterus or something. Grar. And for the love of fuck, tone it the fuck down, I'd like to hear the people I'm talking to, dammit!

Um, yeah, PMS + anger + sadness = not a good combination. I wish my period'd start already. Feh.

I'm hideously behind on NaNo, and if I don't catch my snap by Friday I'll never mae up for it. So yeah. Expect some banging my head against a wall soon.

Attempt at distraction: Let's make some plans! First of all, obviously, will be my birthday on 20 December, and I want to celebrate with people. E, John, I know it's a Monday, but would you two want to do something? Dinner (at a restaurant or at my place), out for a drink, whatever? Any other Edinburghers have a suggestion?

I'll be leaving for Belgium in the afternoon of the 21st, and I'll return around noon on the 30th, so Belgians, if you want to meet up, suggest a date. (Place of meeting would obviously be Antwerp.)

And New Year's, of course, will be celebrated over here as well, probably with copious amounts of alcohol. Somebody remind me to make a drunk phone post, yes?

Dear girl in the short skitr who hung out just inside my field of vision during my smoke break: Thank you for brightening my day. :D

I made it to 68 points on the skilled-worker test (lower than it would have been had I arranged for a job in Canada). It's my mad language skillz (or, you know, not). First time French will ever have helped me :)

Now to secure a job up there, and I'll be good to go!


I'm kidding, but not much

Hee! Hey, I doubt I'd make it far on my French, and I studied it for eight years. Am a bad Belgian.
