Just because everybody on my flist and my friends flists was doing it, didn't mean I had to do it too. Besides: I am quite happy with my job, so there was really no point for that 'career-meme' that's doing the rounds. Except that at the end of this week I had a blow up about some client who thought he could just ignore my work and let someone else get all the honours and I was seriously considering finding another line of work. So I did it.
That careermeme:
1. Go to http://www.careercruising.com/.
2. Put in Username: nycareers, Password: landmark.
3. Take their "Career Matchmaker" questions.
4. Post the top ten results.

Okay, that was helpful. Since I still prefer to keep the specifics of my professional life away from my journal life I'm not gonna post the results. Because as it turns out I've been making my money for the past ten years with exactly what I want to do. In my top ten my job ended up on number one -combined with number 7- and all the suggestions in between are my hobbies, so that's that, I suppose. I guess I need to find a way to deal with stupid clients. Because I can't think of anything else I'd want to do for the rest of my life.

But because of the above mentioned incident, this weekend my mind has been out of control. I can't turn off thinking about it, because I'm deeply insulted and fucking angry. It could have something to do with pms, but let's not blame the hormones for overreacting, because it was truely worthy getting upset about. I've decided to ask the boss on Monday exactly what was said and if he at least defended my work to the client. I've been so dissapointed in him lately. /job related rant.

On with a meme that's way more fun and just as revealing: Seven Quirks )
I was gonna post another meme, but I still have to upload the pictures I collected (see quirk 7 *g*) Instead I will finish this post of blah with links to all the other places I've set up camp in. Not because I think lj will implode, but because some of my friends and favorite communities have moved there.
I now not only have a hide away in Greatest Journal, but I've also staked a claim at Insane Journal (because having a Dutch blog, personal picture-corner, parkingplace for my artwork, moviereview-section, myspace, hyve, Cupid-profile and an experimental website next to this live journal aren't enough;) You're welcome to join me there.
What do you mean: *Get a life!*? This IS my life. )/pimping

Right, off to get those pictures for the Five Hot Women Meme online:-)

In between whining about the job and doing laundry for the second day in a row (I have to make good use of the final sunshine of the season;) I've also managed to finally collect all the necessary pretty for another picture-meme.

A while ago [livejournal.com profile] tanisafan decided the original Hot Guys Meme needed a counterpart, so I had to find Five Hot Women (such a chore). I wanted to follow the same rules and tried to pick women from my own generation, but I failed *g*. So I'm posting pictures of six women, in order to at least get the average age right -sort of- :) I did manage to step away from my usual harem, but I'm not satisfied with all the photos I found, so I've added some links to clips of the ladies in motion, to show you why they made the list:)
Let me introduce you to six female hotties )
Wow. Whas that as good for you as it was for me. I need chocolate. Yum.

I've updated my booklist - again. It's still growing, despite my best efforts not to buy more books until I'm done. I've had to add two titles I initially bought for my brother, but kept for myself after I desperately tried managed to find him other presents for his birthday. And when I went to The Hague for the party, his girlfriend Gayleen not only handed me back a book I lent her (and which I have now put on the recommendations-list), she also handed me a book I gave her for her birthday, with the message I had to read it.
I might have to add even more books later, since Jelle kindly mailed me more authors recommended by that bookshoplady that told him about the Floortje Zwigtman's books. Since I'm still not recovered from that story, I simply can not ignore books recommended by either Jelle or that lady;)

I fear I'm never gonna get rid of the to-read-list. *rolls eyes*

And finally: I was going through my -also never ending- links-to-remember list and found a snippet of news in The Den of Geek, that might be of interest to some people on my flist, in particular [livejournal.com profile] tanisafan and [livejournal.com profile] kennedy_unknown as it concerns Veronica Mars and I seem to remember great disappointment when that series was cancelled last season.
