So yesterday I spent the day folding and stuffing end of the the month statements for customers. I finished those up this morning. I also got to stick stickers on envelopes for something personal the boss is doing yesterday when I got sick of folding and stuffing.

This was SO much fun I continued doing it today. I got to stick stickers and fold letters and stuff envelopes. All Fucking Day.

Can you tell how thrilled I am that I got to do this?

I quit around 430 because I had had enough. I even took a break doing tis by alphabetizing some stuff for another person but it didn't take long enough.

Being as I didn't finish today I will be sticking, folding and stuffing tomorrow. When I quit doing it today I started working on graphics. I want to finish those soon. I like impressing the in-house graphic artist with my speed and quality of work.

Class started again yesterday. I'm in web scripting. So it should be fun, I should learn some new things.

Ok, I'm off to bed. It's late and I'm beat. Laters.

Soon SE will be getting a new blog. Hopefully it will get used!

Other than that things have been going quite well! We got a new friend, named him Jack and have been spoiling him a bit with lots of fun stuff and jumpy food.

Here's a pic of Jack:

Check Out Jack!

Please give a warm welcome to Deviant Savant!

Enjoy! Deviant Savant will be added to the opening page when the time comes.

I know, it's horrible to see that I'm thinking. Seriously thinking about starting a design portion to sweetly-evil. I'm just not sure how to go about it.

I think I'll start with school. We have to do a project website and we have to utilize what we are learning. So we'll see. If the site I create for class turns out decently and gets some good criticism, then perhaps I'll do it.

What do you think? Would you use a layout created by sweetly-evil?

I suppose we'll find out.

So life is good, for the most part. There's lots of arguing and stress lately, but it's expected with the major changes that have been made in the household.

Jack is doing well, Velvet is doing well. The Little Lady and the Honey are slowly figuring out how to get along and make things work. It's a lot of give and take and biting of tongues on all fronts, though. Blending takes time.

School is going well, mentioned that in my last post. This post is mainly just an attempt to update people since I'm hardly on the messenger programs anymore.

I've been extremely exhausted lately. I think they are trying to kill me at work with the air conditioning. It's barely 40 degrees outside and they turn the freaking air conditioning on. I wear a tank top under a sweater at work and cover up with my coat. If anyone touches the heat to turn it up they start hearing complaints about how hot people are and how they need to turn the heat down. It's stupidity at it's best.

- - - time passes - - -

See, now I'm at home, fed and sitting on the couch with my honey, pretty relaxed and talking with two people through aim. All is good, now.

I'm off. Laters.

Today was a long day at work. I had hardly anything to do and I didn't get to work on my homework either. That kind of sucked. I got to post some responses to the other homework already done, though. That helped.

The boss is sometimes aggravating. He calls me to make phone calls for him and then the phone is ringing and wants to know why I haven't called the person yet. Ok, I had two lines ringing and a customer at the window. You have a fucking camera centered on me, look at the damn thing.

So I've got my homework done and posted and uploaded. It was easy. I'm kind of feeling weird about these classes lately. I expect them to be challenging and they aren't. I like the fact that they are easy though because it means I'm really good at what I do. I took extra time to do the stuff I had to do tonight even though it was a ten minute assignment.

So far I've gotten straight A's again, yay me!

I've been working on a new splash page for SE. I've got to add our new blogger, Deviant Savant and I'm changing the image since I swapped from Jasc Paint Shop Pro 9 to Adobe Photoshop CS2. The current splash was saved in layers in psp format and Adobe can't open it, so I'm making a new one. I know several people who will find it hot and bothered, I know we did over here.

Well, it sounds like my honey is out of the shower so I'm going back to bed. I had a nap earlier and I'm drinking coffee. I've got a back massage planned for my honey so I don't have to worry about not getting enough sleep tonight.

The electric went out last night and we kind of freaked regarding Jack ( new pics coming soon ) because he's a tropical lizard and we didn't know when the electric would be back on. I had Honey call his friend to find out what to do. She's pretty fucking knowledgeable and I love that we have someone to go to if we need assistance! She was amazing when it came to Honey going to buy a lizard in the first place.

Ok.. I think I'm gonna get going now. He should be done. Laters, Sweet Dreams!

Ok, the new splash page is up and running after a shitload of aggravation since I uninstalled Paint Shop Pro 9 to make more room for schoolwork programs. Yes, I uninstalled my beloved Paint Shop Pro. I couldn't figure out, even with the help file, how to make ImageReady create me a fucking image map for the splash page and you know how I love making my image maps.

So Honey helped me out by finding a tutorial on it and seeing what I was doing wrong to save the html. The help file finally showed me how to do the map itself but the only help it had regarding saving the file was in what form I wanted it saved in. Not much help when it came to the html side of it at all.

Then I got everything uploaded and I thought it worked, but no, the links weren't working. I figured out what was wrong there and the image quit working. I had to rename the image because I used a different one when I uploaded it. So now, finally, it is up and running perfectly.

I'm again seriously considering creating a layout/banner/some sort of graphically inclined design section. Honey may help me with this.

Anyone else interested in offering your assistance in this endeavor?

Ok, I'm off. Laters.

So. I'm sitting here at work and get a phone call stating that the power is out and a tree fell on my car. Also the furnace went out last night.

No clue as to when I'll be available or when I'll get to post again. Laters.

The electric came back on ten minutes after leaving the office.

The furnace is running and we are toasty warm.

The damage to the car appears to be mostly aesthetic, but will still need to be looked at and repaired.

The tree has been cut to pieces and is lying on the ground where the groundskeeper left it. I'm a bit perturbed by it being left, but whatever.

I made a shitload of buttons for the boss' website today. Yay me.

So overall, a very stress-filled day turned out to be not so bad after all.

Let's hope the weather holds. Laters.

I miss my honey. He hasn't even been gone a full day but I'm used to talking to him most of the day and evening. I got to talk to him on my lunch and this evening. All is well here and all is well there.

Jack is hilarious though. I swear he tried to jump from his one spot where there is somewhat a pile of vines in his tank to the log on the other side. He made it, but it was kind of hilarious to see him jump that far.

Alright well I am going to lay down and watch tv until my honey is available again.

Laters.

These are the days I wish I were independently rich. Either people are trying to annoy me by bitching and moaning (apparently they keep trying even though they don't get a reaction from me) or they try to freeze me out. I am so sick and tired of people bitching and moaning about their fucking lives. What do they expect me to do about it? Basically, I have the urge to tell them to grow the fuck up and get over it.

All I heard today was "I'm hot." "It's too hot up here." "OMG it's so hot in here!" to the point where someone went and turned down the fucking heat. They turned down the fucking heat even though they saw that I was covered up in my fucking coat. I keep wondering if these people think that if they make it cold enough that I'll leave. Oh wait. They don't want me to leave, then one of them would have to answer the fucking phone.

They interviewed yet another person for the position I want. I'm getting fed up about that, too. I've gotten to the point that if they screw me over on the position then I will simply have school find me a place to work or help me start out on my own when I graduate.

I'm exhausted and going to lay down now.

Look in the mirror today and smile at yourself, CHELLE. Connect with your true spirit and blow away the cloud of depression that is looming over you. This sadness is not yours, so send it far away. There is a happy-go-lucky feeling in the air that you should work to connect to. Keep things light, energetic, and fanciful. You are the expert of all that is disconnected from reality.

So.. I'm the expert of all that is disconnected from reality. Wonderful. Now how exactly am I to utilize this when I have to deal with other peoples' personal bubbles?

Honey will be returning home, cat included, tomorrow. I am waiting patiently. I know it's only been four days, but having someone with you all the time, talking, snuggling, watching tv, playing games just gets taken advantage of. Then when they leave for even a short period, it's strange. You're so used to them being there to talk with and they aren't there.

I had 80 emails from the blog in my box today (I got 2 more as I was deleting the other 78) from porn sites trying to get my readers' attention, but guess what? MT has a built in catcher. Instead of posting all of those trackbacks to my blog, it catches them so I can review them. I junked them all. I know you all want the pr0n, but too bad.

And I swear Jack was playing peek a boo with me. Yes, Jack the Dragon was playing with me.

Ok, I'm off.

So yesterday was an extremely lazy day. We didn't even get dressed, which is always a good thing. I enjoy lounging around in my robe watching tv, snuggling, and napping all day. So the kitties are getting along quite a bit better. Quite funny, I fell asleep on the couch Saturday and Honey's Kitty was at my feet and Velvet decided to lay on me, only a few inches away. Today they were both in our bed, Velvet in the far bottom corner and Honey's Kitty as far opposite as he could get from her. It was adorable and if the bedroom hadn't been completely a disaster area I'd have taken pictures.

The Little Lady is in trouble again and I am not going to discuss the details here. It's a rough time with her sometimes and I don't know why that is. She's normally a good girl and I usually don't have to worry about her doing the stupid things that some of the other kids tend to do. Today she did. I don't blame her because adults were involved and lied and then she didn't tell me about what was going on.

Trust has been ripped away and will have to be earned again, the passage will be rough but I'm sure she can pull through.

Laters.

_S I G H_

I am trying to be in a good mood, but people are making it extremely rough today. More later, please stay tuned!

So today was a pain in the ass. I had to hear the Hyena all day today. Her voice, her annoying fucking laugh. The Hyena can't even interact with anyone that doesn't have a dick between their legs properly. Oh wait, she can't interact with them properly either because she's all in their face and practically rubbing against them when she discusses things with them. She tries to act all flirty and cute but her voice is worse than the chick from Sorority Boys.

The guy I was going to work for as an assistant, you know the graphics guy, came up to me today and asked me where I had left off in the photo resizing project because they couldn't figure it out. He and his assistant couldn't figure out that I had left off on the same photo in each folder because they didn't look. Ok, if he couldn't figure it out alone and his assistant couldn't figure it out alone, how fucking stupid can they both be if they couldn't figure it out together?

I need to resend an email to my academic advisor because she still has not gotten back to me on a proposted graduation date.

I had planned on doing some work on the computer but I kept falling asleep and somehow my honey forced me into taking a 3 hour nap. Better than a three hour tour anyday!

Today seemed to last forever. The end of the day, say like 5pm when all the crazy people leave, is always a better time. It lasts extremely long but it is so much more relaxed.

Alright. I am off. I feel much better, thank you.
