I got very little sleep last night, and when my alarm went off at 4:45am the husband was like "I'm guessing you can't take the dog out?" and I grunted a "no". So many thanks to him for doing so.
Meanwhile, work is being problematic in that I have a gazillion emails to look at, and some I need to answer and some another team needs to answer, so I need to get on that and work with it.
In other news, if you missed yesterday's post I have acquired a tablet, a Dell Venue 8 Pro. Its a Windows 8.1 tablet--I don't use my gmail account enough to make an Android tablet worth it and I don't want to spend the money on an iPad. It's 8", and so far i really like it, especially for my Kindle app and my Mah Jong app. I'm sure it'll come in handy for watching media, too. It's an 8" tablet with 2GB of RAM and 32GB hard drive, but i bought it off the sellbuy list at work and it came included with a 32GB microSD card. It also has a stylus but I don't use that often. It has Office 2013, so once I get a keyboard for it I'll be able to use it for writing, too. Basically I got a netbook. I just don't know how good the battery is. I'll find out. (A coworker with one says it lasts about 9 hours on reading, so that's good.)
In other news we are thisclose to finishing the refinance on our mortgage, but I'm waiting on one letter from a bank. I've called them three times this morning and am praying the third time gives me what i need or I'm going to cry. Or scream.
Some work stuff going on that I'll talk about in another post; things are changing and I'm not sure it's a bad thing, but part of me is like "NOOOO change is bad" so yeah.
tl;dr becc is frustrated this morning and looking forward to going home.
