We do memes and then start to get scared that perhaps it's a bit too quiet in Cardiff town...

[identity profile] morethanteaboy.livejournal.com 2008-03-25 12:33 am (UTC)(link)
I'll take a quiet day anytime, even if the rest of the week goes insane.

[identity profile] harpermd.livejournal.com 2008-03-25 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I'll give you that. Nice to have a day where we're not running all over town.

[identity profile] morethanteaboy.livejournal.com 2008-03-25 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
And only three pots of coffee today instead of the usual five.

[identity profile] harpermd.livejournal.com 2008-03-25 05:55 am (UTC)(link)
...it really was a quiet day.

[identity profile] morethanteaboy.livejournal.com 2008-03-25 04:26 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm almost surprised Jack didn't decide it was a clear out the backlog day.

[identity profile] harpermd.livejournal.com 2008-03-25 08:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Christ, I'm glad he didn't. I hate those days...

[identity profile] morethanteaboy.livejournal.com 2008-03-25 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
I keep telling myself someday the backlog will be completely cleared out and we'll have actual free time.

[identity profile] hisdarklady.livejournal.com 2008-03-25 02:22 am (UTC)(link)
I still haven't done this one, so you are not the last love.

[identity profile] hisdarklady.livejournal.com 2008-03-25 04:26 pm (UTC)(link)
ha ha ha. I know, I am very behind in the meme war. It's very sad indeed.

Woe.

[identity profile] morethanteaboy.livejournal.com 2008-03-25 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm hopeful it means you have better things to do, what with the new job and all.

[identity profile] hisdarklady.livejournal.com 2008-03-25 09:21 pm (UTC)(link)
There are times when theres a lot to do and then there is rushing around to do it and then, like now, times that are very very slow indeed.
