Bleh, I'm kind of hungry right now and it's only 10:00am. Thinking I might have to break down and go get an apple from the break room because I didn't get to drink my full glass of milk this morning, which is why I feel hungry I'm sure. I'm sitting here agonizing through a file conversion, trying to get it ready for printing at the moment. With the slow speed of the computer and my lack of knowledge for this particular thing since I've never done it before ... it's ... fun. Right, no, it's not fun ... it sucks donkey dick, but oh well, I have to do it. At least I finally finished putting all of my boss's school crap into the big binders. After her meeting that she's currently in we're going to run them down to her car and then I don't know what's going to go on ... depends on if I get this file converted. This machine is running at about half snail pace today, so you can see how great that process is going.
I'm trying to figure out what else I need to do today to see how jumbled my day might get. I think I might wash a load of laundry once I get home so it's one less we have to worry about for later. Huh, just balanced my checkbook and they changed the site so I had to change my password and get all high tech with it ... and I noticed that I guess they're including our savings account with my online account and when I looked at the balance ... we grew 25 cents! Woo hoo. Lol. No, it's just the interest, but that's ok. OK time to flip back over and see if Adobe is done thinking yet or not. The damn thing went back to thinking after just a couple minutes of work, so here I am again. I think I have to use the bathroom ... so here I go.
Here I am again, I think I'm going to try to be a trooper and skip the apple ... but I know it's there if I really get to feeling like I'm gonna die. Also, and I know this is random, but I think I figured out what I'm going to do with the husband situation. Even though I really don't look forward to these, I think we're going to have to have another one of those 'about us' talks. Blah. It's just beginning to feel too platonic again. I tell you, this computer thinks really hard and it takes too damn long. I think it needs to go to a learning disabled school so it can gain the skills to be up to speed or something.
I'm gonna kill this computer. It's going all fruit loops on me now for what the hell ever reason. Thinking once I get this damn email with the sign sent I'm going to restart it just to give everything a fresh start. I'm also going to check and see if it needs a defragment or not as well as doing a disk cleanup. Man this makes me want a cigarette really badly. Don't get me wrong, the caffeine is good and it helps ... but both of them together while dealing with something like this ... it would make my life better right now, lol. Come to think of it, I just realized, I must really be getting better at what I do because I just created, by myself, a design for a $3000 sign. That's nothing to scoff at either, not the way these companies are trying to penny pinch. I'm sorta happy about that.
I can't wait to see it in print, I hope it looks good and that it doesn't somehow come back to bite me in the ass. Speaking of biting me in the ass, I think I have to change something in relation to paper size vs. document size. Crapola, that's going to take another 45 minutes by itself the way this thing is running! Screw it, I'm not doing it, they can. Bleh ... you know that stereotypical clumsy office worker who has a stack of papers two feet high that she's carrying in front of her while trying to fumble with some keys, open doors and walk? That was me just a minute ago. My boss had me take down those binders of her school crap by myself. At least it's done with and I don't have to look at the shitting things anymore ... oh and I didn't drop any of them!
Now I have an hour and a half to kill ... and have yet to figure out what to kill it with. She just wrote my paycheck ... I could so be outta here and get that shit taken care of ... but noooo ... I'll have to stay here and twiddle my thumbs. Hmmm ... time to go exploring I guess.

while you were screwing with adobe so was i. i was scanning a shitload of pages into adobe, for the first time, i finally learned how to do it. naturally it was on my case from hell. oh, guess what, amazing, i got a "thank you" from ida and betty, and i got what i suppose passes for a smile from the boss, sort of a mini smirk as i passed by, that wasn't exactly aimed at me, and no hello, which is good cause i don't really like talking to him. but he seemed as pleased as a pig in a trough of pigshit, the way the case from hell is going. note: no raise this year because of "the economy", just a pay cut because the health insurance went up.

Gracie, heh, well at least I know I had an Adobe buddy for a while then. I've been learning my way in and out of Adobe for over a year now and there's always something new, lol. That's awesome to hear that it sounds like things are calming down and that you were shown appreciation by Ida and Betty, and even your boss ...whatever that was, lol. At least you know he's happy, which hopefully keeps him outta your hair! Hopefully things will change soon and you'll get the raise you so obviously deserve. -

good job on the sigh hegs! that's gotta feel good! and good luck for the weekend? the question mark is b/c i'm not sure if you'll be talking to the hubby this weekend or not...therefore the question mark! -

CW - Well, as it turned out the computer didn't want to cooperate. Even when I got the document converted, and scaled down, MS Outlook didn't want to cooperate me. I tried sending that email about three different ways six different times and it froze up every time. I ended up having to throw the files on a jump drive and put it on my boss' desk with a note. If she wants it sent so bad, she can tear HER hair out for a while. I stayed a half hour past my regular time just to TRY to get it done and still nothing. I would have thrown the computer at the wall had I stayed another five minutes, lol.
Frags - Thank you. I don't even know yet if I'm gonna get to talk to my husband this weekend yet. So far tonight he's already made plans to cut wood, as I found out via a friend who called me to see what's going on, he's been calling people throughout his day at work (just LOVE how he'll call and talk to everybody else on any given day at work or on break but he never calls me). Then tomorrow he's probably working for the first part of the day and then has to come home and help his dad at the farm since they're trying to get another crop in the fields. Then Sunday somebody is coming to cut and load wood and who knows how long that'll take. So he's successfully blocked up the whole weekend where there will not be an opportunity to talk to him because I can't tell him to tell the farm to piss off. If it were just friends I could, but not the farm unfortunately. That's OK though ... he'll just have an even "better" Monday when it rolls around.

Hege,
I finally quit using Outlook all together. I now check that email account through Yahoo and have no problems. Outlook wouldn't send or receive hardly anything with size to it for me. I get pdf files from a greeting card company once in a while and I really need to be able to retrieve them. So, forget that noise. lol

"Busy in a slow way." I like that tag! My kind of work. Enjoy your weekend and hope that "about us" talk" goes well if you get to it. -

Congratulations Hege you are so efficient at everything. -
Hegemone said on Jun 06, 2009....
CW - Ha, if it wasn't for the fact that it's the work email and there isn't an actual website to check it on ... I wouldn't use it either. Just another way for work to make life more difficult, lol.
Lucy - Heh, yeah by 5pm things were much better ... we probably were just heading over to the farm at that point. So far things aren't too shabby, nothing to complain about yet anyway, lol. Yeah, Adobe's a pushover ... a verry slow pushover, lol.
Wombie - Yeah, lol, it was the best way I could describe it because it's not like I was busy busy busy ... but what I was busy with was taking forever. As far as the talk, we started it, talked for about an hour and I just kind of got run down and didn't feel like talking anymore, not because it didn't go well but just because I didn't feel like it anymore. Had to reel in the thoughts so we can rehash at a later date. So far so ... okay, I guess, lol.
MsStar - I try, sometimes it's more of a curse than a blessing though, lol.
