I'm reading this article for class, and whoever scanned it left these giant black spaces around the edges. Back when I worked in a university library, we had to measure the journal pages and program the size into the copier. If we screwed up and left an 1/8th inch of black space the document delivery people sent the request back with angry admonishments written on it. I could totally do this better!

I have another job interview. :) It's for a job... wait for it... SCANNING THINGS! I can honestly say I never thought that particular job experience would ever come in handy again. Sometimes, it is good to be wrong.

The Torchwood radio play "Lost Souls" was on this afternoon, and it had lulz and weird skience. There was an educational bit about CERN at the beginning, which was weird, since this is Torchwood after all. But maybe Radio 4 has to be a little higher class than all the alien sex and swearing of the TV series. Anyway, I <3 Welsh Ambassador Ianto and his bicycle bell, and Gwen continues to be awesomecakes. You can download it here for the next 7 days.

Shameless self-promotion: I entered some icons at [livejournal.com profile] dw_icontest this week, and although I can't say which are mine, I encourage you DW fans to vote! :)

I want a purple iPod nano. I'm not actually going to buy one; there's absolutely nothing wrong with my silver one. (Besides not being purple.) And speaking of Apple-y things, I downloaded the newest version of Firefox today, and I swear graphics are slightly duller colored than they are in Safari.

Anyway, about that article I'm reading...

I didn't know about the Torchwood thing -- thanks! Good luck with the scanning job. As a reader of scanned docs, I can heartily say I'd appreciate your perfectionism.

I believe they time Torchwood to be part of their big CERN coverage yesterday. And soon there's more Sarah Jane Adventures!

Hopefully the interview will go well. I really want a job so I'm not relying wholly on students loans.
