More good and bad things

Good: I have a two-week contract doing a data conversion.
Bad: It's in the city so I'll have to pay for parking after fighting peak traffic.

Good: It's income!
Bad: It starts Tuesday which means I don't get paid for Monday which is a holiday.

Good: It's a beautiful day so I decided to go out.
Bad: The market is closed for two weeks and Aotea Square is full of marquees for a lawyers' convention. A what? I fear the black hole of evil about to form at the city's heart.
Good: The organic coffee stall was the only one still there so at least I had good coffee and a brownie.

I can, but they'll be people I know and you don't - except of course for [livejournal.com profile] executrix

Ah, but she writes rather than practises, I believe. :-)

I can probably do another six, who practise. Some of 'em write fanfic, too. I even used to live with one. Not to mention that handy habit they have of helping me move house and write my will.

Ah, yes, conveyancers are all right (I even know two). It's really professional liars barristers I mean.

I'm glad that the Good outweighed the Bad... And good coffee + brownie counts for a lot.

Good luck with the data conversion work!

They do, for they were very good. I'm not sure they were quite worth a trip all the way into town though.
