perhaps the dumbest time for a holiday September 10, 2014

July and August have disappeared in a flurry or work placement, study and assignments, violin practice and an exam, preparing piano students for their exams, choir concerts, choir rehearsal, NGAC stuff, contract work developing a QA manual (gah) and contract work developing information literacy/intro to research resources (excellent fun times). And now it is September […]

And that is life June 16, 2014

Three great things happened today. 1. I went to the supermarket. I never have a huge amount of stuff but I’ve always avoided the self serve checkout machines. I tried them a few times when they first appeared but I found them stressful. They beeped when I didn’t remove my bagged items in a timely […]

Take your daughter to work (experience) day June 5, 2014

I’m moving ever closer to the pointy end of my LIS Masters and I have yet to do any of my work placement. Until this year it would have meant taking some of my precious month of annual leave and going somewhere in a block. This year it’s more difficult to take a block of […]

This is it doofus…… October 12, 2013

So a few things have been happening. I just haven’t been blogging about them. Perhaps the biggest thing was finishing work on Friday. For good. For any new readers, I took a voluntary separation from my position at CQUniversity. I had been there since 1999 (as a student to begin with) and then as a […]

Sunday in photos June 9, 2013

That’s right everyone. I have spent the day at my desk. This is my view.

Hand me a nikko pen February 26, 2011

Well look at me…studying again after vowing never ever to do such a thing in my whole entire life. Clearly, I have forgotten the trials and traumas of the PhD because I have enrolled into a Master of Information Technology (Library and Information Sciences) at QUT. I chose it because it offered the degree externally, […]
