Happy New Year ... And All That Jazz

Hello and welcome to my blog. If you are reading this, it means that I am still unemployed (and you are probably employed and wasting precious time and bandwidth procrastinating at work!).

Well, Owen convinced me to take the plunge and join the blogosphere. So here I am. I'm starting this with a couple of objectives in mind. Mostly, I am hoping that this blog will help me keep in contact. Having just finished my Grad Dip, I'm hoping that this will serve as a way to keep in touch with my fellow Info Man graduates. Also, being tied up with the Grad Dip has resulted in me being a rather slack friend over 2006 so I'm hoping it'll also help me stay in contact with those interstate, and those I don't see as much as I'd like. So feel free to leave comments, have a read, correct my spelling and/or grammar, or completely ignore this if it's not your thing. I'm also hoping to use this as a reading diary - something all good librarians should have (or so I am told) and maybe as a personal kind of journal too. Well, not too personal but you know what I mean - if I bitch about you I promise I'll use a pseudonym!

I also wanted to say - HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! Owen, Gypsy and I saw in 2007 in very low key fashion by staying in and watching the fireworks on telly. I made a new year's resolution not to swear and broke it almost immediately while playing a boardgame with Owen. Still, I'm back on the wagon now. I hope 2007 holds wonderful things for us all!

I'm so glad you stuck to your guns and started your blog. Another reason for me to procrastinate at work, not that I really needed one because I'm bored to death with what I'm doing.

Keep it up Miss Kok.

Tsk, tsk, Jodi swearing already. I misread what you’d written at the end. I thought it said you were back on the sauce. As you’re sponsor, I was quite concerned for that moment.

Hey Jodi, just borrowed someone's computer here in the 'Berra. I love your work! I am busy house hunting which isn't my idea of fun. Stay in touch and 'everything will be fine.' Just ask Angus.
