Today SUCKED!!! Short of being forced to listen to Evita round the clock (the one with Madonna), everything that could have gone wrong, did go wrong. It's the last posting day of the month, so of course accounting is in a frenzy. All money in the office, balance adjustments, cancels and so on have to be processed and applied to accounts so that we have a accurate reading of the numbers for the month. Then, because Jorge, our IT guy, was in Fresno today, the server crashed, killing the network. So, not only was it impossible for accounting to do anything, all the phones are ringing and we can't help anyone, cause all the computers run off the network and our collecting system is completely dependent on the server. Why does it always have to happen when the person who can fix it is not in the office??? And then we had to fire Kelly, on of the girls in my department. I say we like I had to do it, which I didn't. I was supposed to be in the meeting. But lucky for me,, at the last minute, I realized that we had scheduled a conference call with a client at the time that they were doing this. So I took the conference call while they did that. But, I was having anxiety attacks all day because I knew it was happening and no one else in the department did. It's one of those things where you want to know, but you also don't because it's stressful. So, now I have knot in between my shoulder blades that is never going away...
Went to the Ren Faire with Emily, Rei, Jessica, Cat, and Steven this weekend. It was a lot of fun. Pretty stuff, cute little kids dressed up in period costumes. Nexy year I want to take Alexis! She will love it!!! I found the cutest onesie for Evei. It has the pirate skull and crossed swords with "Yo ho ho" underneath it, and says PIRATE on the butt. So cute!
I hope everyone is well!!!!! *tacklehugs all*
ren faire,
