In keeping with, well, keeping to a schedule, I'm going to try to do my usual read LJ/post thing every day.

Yesterday, I admit I didn't do much.  I cut out some patterns in preparation for costuming.  I played some Mass Effect (preparing for the release of ME2 soon, not that I'll be buying it right away, more's the pity.)  Today, I worked on ( Read more... )

 Thank you so much to everyone who responded to my last post.  Really, truly, thank you.  I appreciate it so much.  Yesterday was this strange mix of people at work being sympathetic and angry on my behalf (I can't tell you how many Feds came through to tell me how they think this is all so much BS) and other people pretending nothing was wrong and ( Read more... )

No good news today on the job front ( Read more... )

Let me explain. My desk, because they had no where else to put me, is in the reception area of my building, meaning right in front of the door in and out.

When they moved me here in...IDK, September, maybe? This wasn't really a problem.

But now? EVERY time that stupid door opens, a draft of freezing cold air comes in. On top of that, about ( Read more... )

Well, what do you know! I'm running Semagic off my thumb drive, and Mobipocket Creator and portable Mozilla. :D All that remains is Photoshop. (Which I found and am attempting to install on my thumb drive even now ( Read more... )

I'm about to say good-bye to my work computer.  Oh, I'm getting a new one, and I NEED a new one.  I can't open any programs, or save any files because this one keeps giving me error messages about memory and volume and crap.  It started with my work e-mail, and migrated to everything else, so I can't even write, cause I'm afraid it won't save it.

So, there is this woman at work. She's sort of like the den mother - she organizes birthday lunches and "takes care" of everyone, but she's also sort of up in everyone's business about it, you know? She's fine with all the joking and inappropriate conversation so long as she initiates it, and she wants her opinion on things heard. But the minute ( Read more... )

My new spring purse ended up being way too big!  So I've sent it back and ordered a different one, in kind of a metallic pink.  Smaller, obviously. :)

Let's hope the same thing doesn't happen with my new shoes.

I'm all moved - did I mention here that I was moving my office at work? - anyway, it's done, and I wanted something to brighten up my new ( Read more... )

I've spent the last two days immersed in dusty files and old filing cabinets.  We are half done, but we ran out of appropriate boxes to archive them in, thus I have something of a reprieve today.

I am, however, moving my office today, so who knows how much I'll actually be online and/or at the computer.  Moving requires not only the physical ( Read more... )

I get to spend my day going through four filing cabinets - that's 16 drawers - full of 40-year-old records, and archiving them in boxes.  No computer.  Just dusty files.

Maybe I'll catch you guys at lunch.
