I discovered on Saturday that I'm not bad at poker. At the very least, I'm not bad at poker when the person with many, many chips has to go home and starts betting all in, and others try to bluff to get them. :) I'm probably not the poker queen just yet. I'm also not quite the queen of world domination (I also played Risk for the first time on Saturday), but that was a lot of fun, so I plan to try again at that! I enjoy conquering the world... but the game gets really boring if you get wiped out while plays still going on. Oh well.
I'm also not bad at counting votes. Yesterday I did some work for the Victorian Electoral Commission, counting the data to be given to the data-enterers (of which I neveer had the chance to be a part- there was insufficient workload. Bummer, it would have been good money).
I do not understand why it seems so hard to get temp work right now? It's leading up to xmas, and I am registered with just about every agency you can imagine, but they keep telling me they only have permanent work. It's enough to make a girl look back semi-regretfully at the sucky job she quit at the last minute...
In UPPER news, Nick won Temptation. He's still only got a pen as a prize, but he's coming back next year (while I'm in New Zealand) to win the lot. Right honey? And he was so right to turn down the prize they offered- it was this super fancy shiny big barbecue. Not only did the BBQ look fancy than anything we own, we don't have anywhere to put it. It would fill our whole balcony, although there was a suggestion we could turn the sausages through the window...
I'm also fairly excited about my AP role. Lots of stuff for me to do, most of it the boring admin stuff many would turn their noses up at but hey- it's to do with theatre, so it's THAT much cooler :)
