Never Been

Never been a straight A student before, but with this class I am getting straight 100% As. The teacher is even commenting in the grade window about my assignments to me which is normal but I still can't figure out why I'd be getting 100% on each and every assignment. Yes, I'm doing the work, along with two or three others, the rest are behind or non-existant. I think the teacher is basing the scale on the few of us who are doing the work.

I don't even want to know the grades of those who aren't keeping up or commenting.

Other than that, things are ok. Filled out an application for a clerical assistant job the other day, haven't heard from them yet. I have a dr. appointment on monday. Nothing major, but important to me.

Talked to a few people I used to work with today for a little bit. I guess my replacement has a house arrest anklet and has a bad attitude toward the place, she's only been there a week. They don't think she is going to show up on monday. I wonder what my forner boss thinks of her. I wonder if he asked her if she was creative in her interview, if he interviewed her at all.

Not my problem, not my concern.

I'm off. Laters.

Warranty Good

You know you do it, too. You hesitate about buying that extremely expensive warranty on the electronics you buy. They aren't always worth it (seriously) and when you don't need them you feel the amount of money that you wasted.

Well when I bought my laptop, I wanted the 4 year warranty. I knew I was going to have the computer for quite a long time and that things go wrong on occasion (especially when people in your family and yourself is kind of klutzy) and something may happen as to where you regret not getting the warranty.

It happened with two digital cameras, I remind you. One was dropped into a container full of ice water, the other was dropped by the little lady's friend. No warranties there, folks.

So long, long ago when I bought the laptop, I paid 400 some bucks for the 4 year warranty. I figured why not since they told me it literally covers everything, that included the screen and the battery which they used to not cover - per the representative.

So now I am getting a free (400 dollars worth) AC Adapter for my laptop. Apparently there is a short somewhere in the cord, most likely near the connection, that is causing the battery to not charge. So the battery keeps warning us that it's low because the laptop isn't reading that the power cord is connected. Blahblahblah.

So with the new power cord the battery will charge and I will once again be with laptop! Anyway. I'll be using the Honey's to do homework and check email but probably not much else. I am going to try to send out the cord tomorrow because supposedly once it is scanned as sent they are going to ship me the new one. That could take up to 10 business days. Tomorrow is Friday so I expect to have it within two weeks. Seriously.

Ok so, I am off to finish dinner! Laters.

What I Want

Or is it what I need?

I want work. I want to work somewhere that I can get along with my coworkers and not want to kill them. I want a job that I will enjoy and be able to apply my skills to. I want to work on the internet. I want to work with web design. I want to code fantastic websites that will not only work but be pleasing to the eye. I want to implement my desires to create intranets for companies that abuse paper-use. I want to help the environment by saving trees from companies using an intranet.

Laters.

Beaten

So I found this great site that has a ton of tutorials on what I needed to make my homework work. I was able to finish my homework only a day late and hopefully it'll be accepted. It's hard to find information you want to tell you 'do this and this and this' and then have it backfire on you. The tutorial I used told me what I had to do in order to make it work, so I did it. I typed everything out and added my styles, fixed what got broken in the process and then fixed the styles. Then I tested it and made sure everything worked, even had a friend test it for me, too. I still haven't gotten that email though . . . ohwell, it says it goes through and it probably sends it to the value instead of the indicated mailto.

Hopefully all will be well excepted and tolerated, and whatever. I don't want to get into trouble for using a tutorial that basically gives you all the details of what to do. That is the web. You can find everything from creating a basic form to creating a flash website in minutes. Yeah.

The honey is now attempting to get his media center up and running and I am attempting to help by giving him file names. Nothing more for me to help with I guess! I am not the tech! Maybe I'll learn something new.

Sooo finished. I am going to go find out shortly what time to be ready for our trip to SF. Laters.
