I'm back.

Sorry for being so lazy. I honestly thought that noone was reading this, so I didn't bother keeping up to date.
So' here's what's been happening...
Timebooksellers had a sale on until the 23rd of December, so i've been working there like mad. We shipped out up to around 40 parcels a day, it was total madness and we still haven't quite got back to normal.
I got called in to Marketmetrics a few times. Turns out I'm actually really good at market research. I got called in to do surveys about RU486, the new abortion pill their thinking about making legal (with a prescription mind you). The survey was so unethically written, every statement and question was negatively loaded, and actually managed to change a lot of peoples minds. It was quite obvious where the client stood on the drug. It went against everything I've learnt about research design and ethics in Psych, I'm planning to write to the Age about it. We all prostitute our souls from time to time though, and I need money for germany; at least with this job I can whinge to people and make sure newspapers etc are aware how biased the results are.
Marketmetrics is on mandatory shutdown right now, so I'm only working at Timebooks, which is fine cos Bridget has gone on holiday, Jasmine has just got back from Heron Island but is working at officeworks too and working there alot. I'm catching quite a few extra hours.
Christmas was awesome. I got pj's from Fran, who loved her cookie jar and gluten free cookies (she's on a gluten free diet to see if that helps her eczema). From Mum and Dad I got pots and pans, a teapot with pictures from the tea party in Alice in Woderland on it and (drum roll please) a digital camera! Grandma made me a cushion and gave me some money too; so I got a lot this christmas really.
We spent christmas at our friend Tamaryn's house. She has a ten month old called Rylan (yes there is an L in there, her partner's name is Cable so he was never going to have a normal name), he was so excited ripping the paper off everything, he got a blow up castle with a ball pit in the middle. It was huge, I wanted to play in it too!
I got my eyebrows waxed today, I've never done that before. It doesn't hurt, your eyes just water for a moment and it's over.
My parents are leaving for Fiji tomorrow. I'm going to get Google Talk up and running tonight while I still have my Dad here to trouble shoot for me. So if there's anything else I want to tell people, I'll tell them on that or write emails.
MWAH!!!
