That book was the basis of a story on one of the podcasts recently. Planet Money? No, Thinking Allowed, and it was pretty awful.

What does "natural-processed" mean in coffee circles?

I can relate. I suppose what I'm doing is word crunching, and it is also boring and mindless.

Gold!

That does sound like a change for the better. Fingers crossed.

That's great. Is it something you want?

I should subcontract.Actually, that's not the prime purpose of the job, which is to revise a scheme of categories and tags. That requires me to check each of about 150 links, and along the way I am smugly finding broken links, typos etc.

Hey, if a client wants to pay me big bucks (well, medium sized bucks) to find all the broken links in their site, who am I to argue? But strewthe it is boring for a human being.

I support that decision. :)

So, the invoicing isn't productive thing? Best part of 8 hours later, and I have sent off three invoices and a bunch of expenses that should keep food on the table for the month or two. If the bar stewards pay up.

(I have no reason to suppose they won't. These are good clients.)

So, off to shop for some of that food for tonight's supper.
