Moooooo

Sooo get this. Friday my honey brought me a java chip frappy from starschmucks (you know who I mean)... and again he brought me one today. Apparently, according to the Boss and the resident artiste I should look like a cow. Yep. A moo cow no less.

My honey is being mean and trying to make me look like cousin It as I type all of this. I recently had 4 inches cut off my hair. Yep, 4 inches. Right now he doesnt realize it but I have my eyes closed as I type this. HAHAHAHA.He is ontinuing to try to cover my face with hair yet my eyes are still closed.

I am going to leave this post (other than any coding errors alone) so that he reaizes I can somewhat type. I know I am making mistakes, I can tell if my fingers aren't hitting the keys just so... But I won't fix them because he's being a silly butt and testing my so-called typing ability. I wonder how many errros I've made so far. I am used to correcting myself as I go but that doesn't mean anything.

Ok, he's leaving me alone for the moment.

Homework has been a touch rough. The tutorials are worth doing. My honey is messing with me yet again, apparently he missed me today.

Ok, well I am going to spend the next hour with my honey since he missed me oh so much that he ignored me online all day. LATERS!

KaBoom kaBOOM

So here I am sitting at my desk doing nothing much but paging calls. Which is fine. I like it when things run smoothly.

Unfortunately, there are so many days here when things done run smoothly let alone start that way.

Yesterday I felt like I walked into a hornets' nest and got stung all day long.

I'm getting a solid B in the flash class. I have three weeks off of school (that info is for those of you who have been missing me sorely the past two months) for sommer break.

Ok, gotta go. The boss will be here soon.

Laid Out

New layout again. Couldn't help myself. Saw the image, had to make a layout.

That is all for now. I am off to shower and to bed so I can go back to Hell tomorrow. G'night.

Yay?

So today I was exhausted at work, which was my own fault. I slept in on sunday until 930ish something or other and stayed up until midnight - that included my shower. I was working on the new layout and didn't wan tto go to bed with it half-finished. Then I get a lot of people asking me 'what's up with the site? it's kind of.. off.'

So anyway I was exhausted at work. Coffee and Mountain Dew couldn't get me boosted up. Luckily, the boss is off for three weeks on a working vacation. I have a feeling that things will be a bit quieter around the office without him.

Got kudos on the new layout, big yay on that. I am glad there are people out there who like the stuff I do. Can't wait to finish learning flash. If there is a way I will make this a flash blog. That would be great, don't you think?

I have three weeks off of school after this class and then I get to learn PHP and more Visual graphics and so forth.

I am enjoying the classes more and more as they get challenging. I like learning new things, not regurgitating what I already know. A lot of the beginning classes were that and I had to go against the current trends in design, which just isn't a good thing. Ohwell. As and Bs for me!

I am not sure what I want to do after this all ends. I've got plenty of time to decide until then. I graduate in the winter of 2008. Which, by the way, I'll be taking three classes at once and will probably be a recluse, unreachable, wretch during that time period of 6 torturous weeks.

Ok well. I am gonna start getting ready for bed soon. Sweet dreams to all.

Book Update: Still reading Dance Macabre. Bought Strange Candy and Jacqueline Carey's Kushiel's Scion. I'm going to start reading Strange Candy after I'm done with Dance Macabre and then I'll read the new Kushiel book.

Movie Update: Still haven't lounged long enough to watch the Pink Panther. I know, I know.

Laters.

Heavy Metal

Honey introduced me to the movie 'Heavy Metal' and it wasn't half bad. It's an older movie, but it was still pretty good. Interesting story, interesting animation and lots of drugs were involved in the making of it, too.

Check it out.

[ untitled ]

So today I have been paging the hell out of phone calls all morning - note I've only been here an hour and not quite fifteen minutes so far - and the day has already gotten messy. I've actually thought of taking the boring time of my day (meaning the time between phone blowups) and trying to write stories again. The problem with this is that when the phones aren't ringing off the hook people tend to walk around the office back and forth through the area here and I have to stop everything I am doing because it is usually not allowed. (Things not allowed: Reading articles of any kind, reading personal email of any kind, staring off into space for any reason... and such)

I took a vitamin with my coffee this morning, yes I know pat me on the head for being a good girl, and have decided to start taking them on Wednesday mornings. I think once a week should be plenty since I eat fairly healthy.

So things around here have been really swamped. The phones won't stop ringing. I'm so ready to quit working here. I am so tired of being the receptionist. I want to go somewhere to work that I can sit far away from people. I'd like to have a window so I can have natural light to help diffuse the awful florescent lights. I'd like to go to work, do my job, and go home. Such a thing will never happen being a receptionist.

Well, it's almost lunch and I want to clean the computer off before I go. Laters.

Friday

So it's friday again, woohoo, right?

I am really glad it's friday, I really am. I just wish it wouldn't be another day at work when no one wants to work. Yes, I am goofing off by posting, but the phones aren't ringing and once they do I will pause until all the calls are picked up. I haven't been given any other tasks except to call people for interviews. I only reached 1 of 5 people, but the others may have jobs.

To others here it's just another day to whine and cry. I whine and cry about the whining and the crying and the time it takes away from getting work done. Now, I'm all for a break here and there. Get up, walk around, let your eyes stop staring at the computer screen, but then go back to your desk, get back to work. There's never a need to wander aimlessly through the office whining about everything you have to do and all the things that are (supposedly) keeping you from doing them.

So today I called the people who I was asked to call and left messages where I could and made a time sheet up so that when I go to lunch the one that covers it can write down their name if they call in.

I feel like I was lied to about this job. Everyone does their part, everyone pulls their weight and if there is a problem where someone isn't they'll get a talking to.

Yep, they'll get talked to and after a week or two they'll go back to not working again.

So the phones are quiet again. Some people are at their desks. ::TIME PASSES::

So I've done my office drudge duties and now I am back at the phones and back at my desk. I know the little things are supposed to be good for you but when it comes to "Do this, this and this" all at once, it gets a bit annoying. It's like no one can wait for me to finish one thing before giving me another. I am good at multi-tasking, but that means doing something as I am answering the phones.

Ok, well it's almost lunch time so I am off. Laters.
