Came into work after a day off to find 250 emails in my inbox. About 10 were "real" emails, and one was a mail from a client sending an file that we asked for. Then about 240 mails were from the sys-admin, telling me that my mailbox was oversized. And each one of those 240 mails incremented the size by 1k, due to the last mail.

That really is insane.

As I sit here trying to write an essay on the effects of time on news stories, a sudden thought comes to me. Why did I bother going to University to do a degree at all? Why didn't I just become a puffin warden on Lundy Island and do a far more fun OU degree? I'd have got to live in the wilds and study easier, more fun courses on linguistics and evolutionary statistics. Then on the other hand, would I have ever had that idea if I hadn't done a chemistry degree at a green-wellies university and ended up working as a data analyst? Hmmm.

And just to prove that that wibble isn't the worst thing I've written today, quote from my essay:

So we can see from this last point that skilfull journalist skeleton obviously uses the effect of time on news is not only fleshed out but also use of language.

I'm sure that made sense as I was typing it *sighs* late edit )
