Working 9 to 5
…is my way to make a living at the moment. And if the first day is any indication I think I’m gonna like it here! The people I share the office with are lovely, and the other people who work there are also glorious. Of course, I have no idea what I am doing, have no login for the computer system and no space on my desk, but I don’t feel like my head is going to explode!
The day started off with the most glorious skies - they were like something out of Gone With The Wind, a Technicolor dream.
which put me in a good mood for the rest of the day. I feel as if the work I am doing is contributing to something. And this is pretty much all I want at the moment.
After work finished to keep my good mood going I went for a wander round the Shopping Centre, gazing at the lights and all the various prettiness, windows shopping my way through Christmas - I think I finally have an idea what to get Mum, but still no clues for Dad - any ideas?
Then I walked up to the Flag Market and was amazed by the sight of the Ferris Wheel parked right in the middle. In my head, I was ooo-ing at all the lights
(even though it would have been nice to be able to get a full frontal shot of the Harris Museum.
Then I went for a quick look at the Nativity Scene the council wheels out every year before running (well, walking swiftly) for the bus.
Sleep will come easily tonight - using your brain all day is hard!
I wish I could claim that sleep would come easily to me one night!

I like that shot of the Ferris Wheel with the tree in the foreground.
Night shots are so tough.

thethinker - I lied, I was awake half the bleedin’ time. I was so ridiculously tired but yet, come 4 am, I was still awake.
kitty - I can’t wait to get a better camera… and then, night shots, oh I will be taking over the world with my nights shots!! Thank you!
QuantumFog - Much much better! I’d forgotten how good the whole job thing felt. Genius! (Oh, and sorry about the deletion form the Blogroll - it’s now fixed, it won’t happen again!)

I don’t know why but that museum shot reminds me of one of the museums in Chicago and makes me long for Christmas there.

Yeah, that helps, better camera. Hope Santa brings you a new one. : )
You have a good eye for composing a shot.

Miss Britt - Preston or Chicago? I know where I’d wanna be!
kitty - Here’s hoping Santa has picked up on the many many hints I have dropped.
You’re gonna make me blush!
