fpb | beginning again, I hope

Today I finished my first paying job since the catastrophe. It was a kind of work I particularly hate - a company budget, full of tables and accounting terms - and I think I was right to warn the outsourcer that it was not my favourite kind of work, but they were as desperate as I was and I took the job. And I did it! And that in spite of a damned unreliable computer with a fondness for eating paragraphs at random and shutting down whole programs without warning. You could have heard my screams as I worked from central London; but I got the job done in time and to specifications. Maybe I can start building up a business again.
