# Top 5: Social networking status updates for executives
Suitable for use on Facebook, Twitter, or the social networking site of your choice…
I’ve been a tad disillusioned at work this week, (can you tell?!)

2. Lyn is synergising [...]

Like a scene from The Neverending Story, the Nothingness washes over my life like a tsunami – leaving only the echo of empty rhetoric painting a beige white-wash atop the decomposing elements of a promising life.
I’m feeling a tad melancholy this week…
For no particular reason, I’ve been reassessing every facet of my life:
Finances: I need [...]

Sleep. It’s one of those things you don’t appreciate the value of until you aren’t getting enough of it. (Sex, exercise, coffee and time-off all come to mind too…)
Like many 30-somethings, I struggle to juggle the competing demands of a young family, demanding career and a busy social calendar.
By the time I collapse into bed at the [...]

1. Finding a job I love
For most of my career, I’ve focussed on doing what fits with my family obligations, [...]

Government departments are stoopid [sic].
The particular Government department with which I’m in constant liaison regarding my divorce has included me on their mailing list as MRS Ex-husband. MRS. *AHEM* Have they MISSED something?! *sheesh* Talk about being slow on the uptake.
(Yes, I’ve called them to fix it. Twice.)

Long before Juno, (was it really 22 yrs ago?) Madonna preached to her papa about teen pregnancy and told me to respect myself and make my man express himself. Since those glory-days of punky feministas, the wave changed to angst-ridden and now angry young chicks, culminating in Christina and Pink teaching our youngsters to be [...]
