Grrrrarrrg

Yes, work was just getting a bit much for me today. Holiday period and I thought there would not be so much to do, but lordy how that bookguard rolled in. I have not even made a dent in the piles that were set aside for me to do, and not even a look at the enclosures, single sewn hinge tape and the minor mends awaiting my ministrations. It was awash with holds, simultaneously mind numbing and time consuming. By the time I left this afternoon (late again) I couldn't actually string a sentence together properly. I can only imagine what it would have been like without a tape deck.
Today I was luxuriating in some bogan sounds, particularly the joy of early Metallica. I'm not sure that is the best music for book guarding situations however, I find I need the uplift of something more radioesque and overproduced. Or the gleeful filth of a John Waters film soundtrack. I'd forgotten what a treasure the chicken grabber song is.
