Finished a languishing application for an audio transcription job. Not sure whether I'll get it or not, but at least it's done now. Applied (successfully) for a website testing job. Both of these are self-employed, no guarantees that I'd get actual work from them but worth a try. Boggled at the adverts for 'work from home' jobs many of which are prison officers.

I wish I could get away with wearing a suit and tie to work. As it is, my boss doesn't wear a suit (although he does usually wear a tie, just not a jacket) and I'm not entirely sure how cross-dressing would be reacted to.

What do you wear to work/ would you wear in an ideal world?

(I tend to wear some sort of skirt or trousers and reasonably smart top. If I wear sexy stockings, like the seamed ones, I pair them with my frumpiest skirt, and that tends to average out well. Yesterday I was wearing a fitted crew neck jumper, a green wool skirt, tights, black and silver ballet pumps, and a green necklace. Hair in a bun.) Now I'm not so highly involved with children, I can get away with wearing higher heels, but I still sometimes spend my days crawling under or over things for various reasons, so I have to be comfortable. Also, I don't feel comfortable wearing too casual clothes, and tend to dress smarter than dress code (which is no jeans).

When you pot to a moderated community, do you get an email telling you that your post has gone through, and the URL?

(I've tried to post to holiday_wishes and they like you to go back and add tags, only I can't find it and am not sure whether that's because it's not there yet, or whether it's the huge volume of stuff)

In other news, I got a really great Secret Santa recipient at work - someone who won't guess me, but who I know what they'll like.
