It's all quiet on the homefront. So I take 20 minutes to watch the first four Google Sketchup tutorials. And all I can think is... "Do you know how long that took us to learn in Autocad at school ( Read more... )

It's been an interesting week at work. I have really settled in to writing decent VBA for the first time. Oh yeah, before I wrote some automation for creating and presenting mailbox stats, but really, how hard was that? This week I took a form that someone in EMEA created, and combined it with a tool that my partner wrote last year. Now between the ( Read more... )

Then I opened what looked like a spreadsheet named 0 and now it won't display out. *sigh* So close ( Read more... )

When I was doing my portfolio the other week, which, by the way, I think I've gotten all the final rejection notices from Google that they give, I noticed that the CamSCR site had finally been updated after almost 3 years since I quit doing it. So, with their site being updated and my access either gone or forgotten, I have finally unsubscribed ( Read more... )

Alright, it's here, the missing dinner party post. Party? Dinner? Well, we were supposed to escape, us girls, for manicures and martinis, but the shop was closed for no knowable reason. That aside, traffic was so horrid we had preemptively decided to bail anyway. Apparently, I am "the flake" when it comes to social plans. It's not my fault. I ( Read more... )
