Scribblings from the Mitchy Side

Eee! Watched Private Practice this morning before work and saw Tracie Thoms. She was GREAT! I'm biased, I know, but she was! It was a good, meaty role - a woman who had been raped and was now pregnant by the rapist - and she had some fantastic scenes with Amy Brenneman. What was lovely to watch, was not only Amy giving Tracie great support in her scenes, but Tracie returning the compliment in a gut-wrenching scene for Amy's character, Violet.

thessalian is totally getting this episode inflicted on her tonight.

Eeee!

In other news, there is a big Admin Review at work coming down the pike next week which is making me a smidge nervous. They're going to be looking at how Admin resources are used, peaks and flows of work, that kind of thing. I have been strongly reassured that my job is secure, but beyond that no-one is actually sure what the outcome of the review will be or even what the aims are. Hmph. Will have to wait and see, I guess.

Apart from that, work is ticking over nicely. Earned some brownie points on Wednesday by typing and emailing a document at top speed to my line manager at a very important meeting. Coming from an admin background, I am always surprised when people think typing 2 sides of A4 is a long, difficult task :P I may not get to do the level of copy typing I used to but by crikey does using the internet a lot pay off in keeping up your typing speed and accuracy :D


My Season 2 Big Bang Theory DVDs arrived this week, just beating the postal strike. Yay! I watched a fair few of these while staying with Mary in NYC but I have no problem watching them again. The gag reel is so hysterical, I've watched it six times already. thessalian heard the hysterical laughter the first time I watched it, from outside the flat and through several walls and closed doors *sheepish*

This week is not my favourite week in the calendar (Mum's birthday yesterday, anniversary of her death tomorrow) but I'm doing ok. Laughter, Tracie squee and snugs from friends help a lot :)

Now I must slurp this tea and find some work to do. Yay Friday!
