I've been feeling sickly the last few nights at work. Thankfully I've never been really ill but it does make the night tend to drag. It could be that I've had restless sleep the last few days, too. On the plus side, this week is passing fairly quickly. The CEO's visit is almost over, so things should get a little less tense. I'm ready for sleep

This week has gone on forever since Saturday. It's not over yet, but I'm so close now. I'm so tired, and yet now I'm home, I haven't gone right to sleep. part of it I blame on Lilly -- she's scratching on closet doors and also on mirrors. v.aggravating ( Read more... )

So I did some list cleaning, but it wasn't any of you, fear not. It was someone I read who no longer reads me. I'm actually not even allowed to leave comments there any longer, so I thought it time they go.

Edit: It's not all bad. I finally got my sound driver issue fixed. yay computer sound.

There's a generator test at the office in Tyson's tomorrow night. We're always staffed, but there's going to people that are staying overnight until it's done, so I don't need to be there. I *do* need to be in on Saturday morning to make up for it. It shouldn't be too bad ( Read more... )

My social schedule is about to become Very clear. One the one hand, I've got more free time, and I should take advantage of it while it lasts. On the other hand, meh.

It's not like I don't have things to keep me occupied. Comics backlog? Check! The last half of Last Exile to watch? Check! Massive game catalog? check, check, and check!

Bah.

Does anyone but me find it funny that there's a contracting company called Hitt Contracting? Unrelated: I am not looking forward to commuting into and out of DC this weekend. Cursed tourists.

One of my coworkers is on vacation. So, from now til he gets back, other people will be covering for him, which is fine. It's just hard to predict what the fill-ins will be like, workethic-wise. Will they be early? On time? Horribly late and never call? (That last one is pretty unlikely, but anything goes.) More important, what will *I* do if ( Read more... )

Last night, I tried to do the good thing. I am not blind to the plight of the homeless, but I am *very* hesitant to help without thinking. I decided to do a smart good deed. I was accosted by a panhandler on my way to work. He wanted money to eat. I offered to feed him. To his credit, he wasn't stupid; I was ready to walk away but he finally ( Read more... )

I could have picked a better time to get sick. I'm not sure what my deal is, but I know I don't like it. And work tonight was a lot of hectic and a lot of stupid, and I kneeled on a carelessly-dropped case screw. That hurt. I've taken something, so we'll see if I start feeling better. I've still got obligations today, so miles to go before I ( Read more... )

The good news is that the shared machine at work is no longer shared by anyone. After it fucked up worse than ever last night, I decided enough was enough. Being the optimisitic soul I am, I tried to repair the installation first. I could have saved myself a few hours if I'd just gone and reinstalled right away. This machine now has my account ( Read more... )
