What significant things have I done today?

[Sibling DavidH]

Heading off soon to a Rotary Club dinner where Mrs H will give a talk on the charity for which she works and I am a volunteer.  We are hoping the reason the Rotarians have invited us is to give us some money.    Fingers crossed for us!  Anyway, we'll get a free dinner.  I'll try and get some photos to post here.

My brother-in-law joined the Rotary Club to help drum up business for his business. Instead he ended up taking hours off work endlessly to do Rotarian stuff....... sort of backfired. But now he is well stuck in and has never looked back. Constant dinners.

Wrote a nice letter to the Revenue folk and a stonking letter to my heart consultant who has got my diagnosis wrong AGAIN.

Sorry to hear about the heart thing, Griffin.

I shall shortly have a rant about last night in the ranting thread.

Managed to do some coursework.

[edd]

I obtained, from three individuals who all claimed to be knowledgeable and authoritative in the matter, in-depth and extensive explanations on the inner workings of a heating/AC unit at work that somehow managed to contradict each other on almost every single point.

At home, I completed some chores that my wife normally does ... in addition to my own! (And she's not even sick or anything!)

Last and most selfishly gratifying, I fulfilled a promise to myself to be more active online, here and elsewhere (see: this post).

[Scriblerus the Philosophe]

Got all three letters for my internship application lined up (and one already in my inbox), taught debate, talked about what needs to be done to better the team with my boss, researched my great great uncle (police chief of Chicago from 1911 to 1913 and a former Pinkerton man), decided a wikipedia article on my great grandfather needs to be expanded and that I should talk to my grandmother about it as well as dig up other information on the man here at home, narrowed down the potential topics for my history paper (labor rights, I think, or possibly Stetson Kennedy and his adventures in destroying the KKK).
I shall write my essay for the internship and research my memo for it, too before the night ends. In reverse order.

Where are you applying to (if you don't mind me asking, and bearing in mind in your reply that big corporations often have at least one person who can work a computer and see what people say about them. You might want to be vague, to the level of industry sector only ).

Just the usual, saving the planet.....

It's a common delusion North of the border.

[Pachyderm]

But it's what I do! I even have a cape and wear my underpants on the outside and everything!

Taaa-taa-daaah! SuperPachy to the rescue!

You might want to consider taking a few days holiday.

[Griffin NoName]

Managed to wake up three time this morning for three events (unavoidable) after being awake all night. Now I feel like s*it.

[Aggie]

You might want to consider taking a few days holiday.

Might be unfortunately common in the industry (then again, I'm north of the border).  My undies stay on the inside, but I wear a fire-proof super suit, blue dishwashing gloves, and carry a electronic fart sniffer.

[Pachyderm]

Where do I get me an electronic fart-sniffer?

I have to rely on the old Mk I nasal protuberance....
