Triassic

  • I’m contemplating doing my Masters degree. This proves that I have had a personality transplant somewhere along the line because the thought of doing further study used to horrify me. Now it feels rather appealing. But I’m wondering how I would work the financial side of it, and whether it’s the best time to do it.

  • I found a Dinosaur Playset at Crazy Clerks for $2, consisting of a large bag of plastic dinosaur figurines. I bought them and have been created little scenes on my desk (as well as leaving them mysteriously on other people’s desks). Then I found the Forest Creatures Playset, and now my dinosaurs are attacking deers and lions. It makes the day a little more interesting.

  • I also have a new whiteboard, a much more adult workplace innovation than the dinosaurs. But the dinosaurs are more fun.

    What are you planning on doing your Masters in?

    Wow - I'm eager to hear about how the Masters planning goes. Good luck! (Said sincerely, not in a 'what in the world are you thinking' way - just to clarify.)

    Oh, and your dinosaurs make me feel better about my little ceramic sheep that holds business cards. And the plush bear holding a flower. Then there's my magnet toy. Maybe I need a whiteboard myself.

    heh :) I have a Ferrari F1 lego playset on my desk, together with a bunch of toy cars and motorcycles.

    I saw the pics of your new playthings. I love them. Also, I've started using the word, pobblebonk, in my every day speech. I use it as a term of endearment, where others might say honey, or sweetie. It's awesome!

    In law, Cassie - I'm thinking I'll leave it for 6 months or so though.

    Aww, post-doc - a ceramic sheep! I'm actually looking forward to getting some colourful pens to brighten up the whiteboard to-do list a bit.

    Ooh, some cars would be an interesting addition Mela - maybe the dinosaurs could go for rides in them!

    Indeed, it's a lovely word A-R :-)
