...and here I am sitting at my desk at nine o'clock again... another day, another dollar... *sighs* So. Okay. Inspiration for today. There's quite a bit of fic with Doyle undercover with straight hair and all - Harlequin Airs for one, though he has a beard and is decidedly non-yuppie in that one! Oh, is Spring-Heeled Jack another one..? Not read that for ages, but I seem to remember it's an undercover-Doyle fic... *g*

The AU Doyle pic is, I think, the one that came to my mind when I saw the pic [livejournal.com profile] ali15on put up last night, though there's a bit of me that still thinks I know that pic - it's the way he's holding his mouth... Actually buggritbuggrem, here it is (hope A doesn't mind the signal boost), just in case anyone knows it (pic on the left).

It looks Cassidy (pic on the right)/Intrigue sort of time to me - and there's something about the colour of this pic that makes me think tan (though of course it could be stage make-up or studio lighting), which would match with filming in Australia... But um! *g*

Oooh, wait - I have another game with which to avoid starting work.

Difficult... The first two pics look most similar to me, but the differences with the third one could be due to so much, even just the pose... What d'you reckon? (Mystery Pic - The Big Knife - Cassidy) *g*

Okay, a bit of a puzzle to think on cheered me up, and fortify me for getting the hell on with work... Realistically everyone faffs when they first get into work, whether it's sanctioned faffing or not, right? Though even more realistically, Job 1 really doesn't have space for the faffing, cos it's really more like piecework in a factory, but with words and paragraphs, so... get on with it!

Today
09.00-10.00 - At desk. Faffing with this post. But I do feel more cheerful than when I sat down! Trouble is, it's 9.45 now...

10.00-11.00 - That's better. Job 1.1 13/26. Meanwhile, the smithy's on the yard, there's a strong smell of what I presume is burnt hoof, and I can hear the clanging... Wonder if they still call themselves smithy - probably not... *googles*... Oh, a farrier, of course! Still wish I'd known he was coming so I could've closed my windows!

11.00-12.00 - Fiddle practice - checked newspaper - Job 1.1 14-23/26

12.00-13.00 - Job 1.1 29/29 (normally half a day's work, but today I have extra to do... *sighs*) - Job 1.2 1-4/29.

13.00-14.00 - Lunch!

14.00-15.00 - erk, late lunch again, cos I looked for that MS picture again and then fiddle-practiced, and then... - Job 1.2-5-11/29.

15.00-16.00 - Job 1.2 12-22/31.

16.00-17.00 - Job 1.2 23-31/31. Yeay - one more to go... Job 1.3...-

17.00-18.00 - Job 1.3 1-12/23. Gaaargh - so close to finishing, and it's an awkward one (in an unpleasant font!)

18.00 - 19.00 - And done. And downloaded two more assignments. And blargh for awkward assignments that stop me finishing "on time"... *sighs* Still - done now, at 18.50. Time to cook dinner... and write. *g*
