I decided to try Notetab, since James recommended it. It seems good so far, although I feel I'm missing out on something. I mean, I don't have to type all the a hrefs and things! Hmmmm. Is it cheating? Perhaps.

So, I was going to write about K-PAX, but I think I'll leave that again. I don't have time to write anything halfway decent, so I think I'll just ramble on for a bit. *g*

This program has all sorts of weird smilies. Did they make these up, or have they been in common net use for years and I just haven't noticed? Like 8 :-) Wizard and B-) Wears horn rimmed glasses and :-o Singing national anthem and [:] Robot and :] Gleep. What's gleep? I don't even know what gleep is, much less what a Gleep smiley should look like.

I could tell you some top secret WHSmith info. (As if you cared!) Geoff Hurst is coming to visit us on the 8th May, either before or after he visits the evil Waterstones at the other end of the High Street. He's not doing a public signing, though. He's just signing stuff for us to sell. Which is sad, because Hodder Headline, the company that publish the book, are actually part of the same group as us. So how come we didn't get him doing a public signing? Not that I'm wildly excited about it. But I'll still get scared if I have to talk to him. Which I probably will, because he's coming at 4 - 4.30pm, and I'll be at work. Eek.

And the other news is about the new and really expensive lift that took months and months to be installed. It's not working properly. There are two major problems with it. First of all, someone (staff, luckily) got stuck in the lift for ten minutes today. We were told not to close the lift to the public because it was just an "intermittent" fault. So beware! If you read all my archives you'll know which branch I work at. :-D The second thing is that the wall between the book stockroom and the lift (the one that's part of the lift shaft, basically) has a weird thing going on with it. About 5 squares have appeared on the surface. It looks like something to do with the lift is moving and pushing the wall further into the stockroom! And our assistant manager said I was silly for not feeling safe in the thing. Now I feel justified!

I've written quite a bit here, haven't I. I was going to talk about Angel and Buffy but I don't think I have time now. Not really. So I'll put that on the K-PAX back burner. Goodnight!
