Dear You-Know-Who-You-Are,

Just as a reminder - I.AM.NOT.A.MIND.READER.

As long as we're clear on that now, m'kay?

Sincerely,
Your Frustrated Admin

(to anyone still visiting -Hi!  I know, long time.  Will try to update better, honest)

Hey LJ staff and owners, whoever you may be -

If you really wish for the advertising to stay on this here blog, then stop it with the unstoppable video ads.

I'm not generally a grammar or spelling snob, seeing how bad my own can be at times.  But once in a great while, I must protest.

Viz Media, this is for you.

I received a Spanish minor at one point in my life, so I realize translating from one language into another can be difficult.  I can only imagine the difficulties of translating a language that ( Read more... )

The bad news:

I hadn't felt good all afternoon - but neither had anyone else at work.  I chalked it up to allergies, stress and an incoming thunderstorm.

After last night's post, I signed out of here and opened up Word '07.  Waited 5 minutes for it to download and install updates.  Finally had the blank page with the blinky cursor teasing me when he stepped into the computer room.

"I don't feel right".  He didn't look right either.

We were both cranky yesterday...maybe it was the time change, or the rain, or the dinner that was messed up, or something carried over from Saturday ( Read more... )

First, my favorite hangout/message board changes (they called it an "update") - and goes from a slightly annoying layout to an eyestrain- and headache-producing nightmare complete with (yes) lime green highlights.

The main color of the board is black, in case you were wondering.
