Wow, I'm pretty lame if I'm already behind on this after just one day! I meant to do Day 2 at work yesterday, but then a computer blew up (not literally, but it might as well have) and I had to spend the next 3 hours trying to get another one set up so the pro shop would be able to operate. In the end I had to bring in my own old computer for ( Read more... )

It is SO FREAKING COLD here this week. It's been getting down into the 20s at night and staying in the 30s-40s during the day. I know this isn't that cold compared to those of you who live farther north, but it's Florida, and we're not used to this weather. To top it all off, the heat at work is broken and it's going to take a week for them to ( Read more... )

Yesterday, I got dragged out of bed and sent in to work 2 hours early because the bartender called in a panic saying that none of the computers in the restaurant could load our point of sale program. A few weeks ago, something weird happened to the other bartender, where the computers spontaneously uninstalled the program. The icons vanished from ( Read more... )

I have this design client that was sort of shoved onto me by Michael at work. He's one of our member, and works for a real estate company. Every month (usually), his company has a flyer made up with their current home listings, which is put into the community's monthly newsletter. Last month, he told me they weren't going to do a flyer, so when ( Read more... )

I got to work today and our receptionist wasn't here. Sometimes, especially during the slow season, they tell her to take off one day a week, so I didn't think too much of it ( Read more... )

Damn, this week has not been fun.

Rather than go into another work rant, which I'm sure everyone's tired of seeing from me, I'll just say work continues to be crazy. It's getting a little better, but it still seems that anytime I start to think I see a light at the end of the tunnel, another train comes through and tries to mow me down ( Read more... )

I actually don't have any more work to do here. I have a ton of website things for the weekend, but that's stuff I need to to do at home. So I was HOPING I could knock off early and go home. But our Xerox machine is on the fritz again, and since everyone else decided to take the day off, I'm the only person in the office while the repair guy ( Read more... )

I made an executive decision yesterday: I'm taking this weekend off from all graphic work to start my Christmas shopping and relax. Naturally, that meant I lay awake half the night trying to think of what to get everyone (and coming up blank), so I'm pretty tired today. But I'm mostly done with the graphics projects I have, and everyone likes ( Read more... )

Mom: Is someone drunk already?

Dean: No, that's my Santa.

o_O

Some banquet just got out, and there's a guy dressed as Santa sitting in the lobby, so people can get their picture taken with him. (Adults, mind you. No kids at this banquet.) He really does kind of sound drunk.

It's not all that cold here (it is, after all, Florida), but it has been chillier than usual this week, especially at night. I think it might even be getting down into the 30s after dark. Brr. Normally I stay in the nice, warm house when this kind of weather hits, but my deadline for getting the course photographed for Golf Digest's website is ( Read more... )
