What A Day!

Well………….my day had an interesting beginning. Started with a rough day at work yesterday to crashing last night around 01:30 since I didn’t have to work today to waking up from a dead-sound sleep to my phone going off at 07:00. It was one of my managers, Kristy, she had a female medical emergency and she was freaking out. She was suppose to open this morning and had called me to see if I could.

She didn’t have the new guy (Jim’s) number (and personally I didn’t want him called since it was his 1st week and I didn’t want to freak him out), she didn’t call Sandee since she was coming in later that afternoon and would’ve made for an extremely long day.

The whole time she was freaking out I couldn’t understand why my phone was so god awful loud that it was hurting my ears. When I finally got out of the bedroom and moved to the office, so to give Harold some peace, I discovered that some how I had turned on my speaker! Holy cow! I was so confused and lost…….I just keep looking at the phone trying to figure it out. I thought I hit the right button so I could talk regularly and ended up hanging up on her…….doh! She called back, by that time I had gathered some of my wits together to let her know that I was going in.

Luckily, I had showered last night except for washing my hair (I hate going to bed with wet hair & do that in with my morning shower), so all I had to do was wash my face, brush my teeth, put my hair up (since it wasn’t going to do anything) & try to dress myself. How I got myself together enough to get out the door I have no idea.

I got to work, while eating two granola bars, surprising Jackie & Brooke that I was there. All things considering, with my brain not wanting to work correctly, I was able to get some stuff done. I was very proud of myself since I felt like a loopy dork all day.

I called the Sandee in the afternoon, because if I was here today I wanted tomorrow off. Which I knew would be no problem, I just wanted to make sure it was okay with her that the new guy opened tomorrow since we had certain projects we had to get done. She was cool about it. When she got there, I left shortly afterwards, even though the actual full shift had 3 more hours to go. I would’ve stayed with I was with it more. But I was so out of it.

While picking up the mail the UPS guy passed me…………I knew what that meant. =) That I was getting my VAIO and I was already feeling good since the mail had a couple of things that Harold had ordered.

We munched down some food and started to dig out our new toys. =) It is weird that VAIO doesn’t come with a back up CD. It has it own thing back up system, in fact it barely came with anything. It does provide a way to make back up cds. The only problem is unlike other back ups with individual cds, for individual programs…………you get stuck with all that crap that they put on at the factory. =( I hate all that excess shit that I don’t need and clutters up my files. But I went and made the back ups, cuz I don’t trust anything.

We decided to jump into the pool to relieve our frustrations with the doing a new set up. It was great! It was a little strong with the chemicals, but we were still able to enjoy it. I’m so looking forward to being able to spend more time in it tomorrow.

We then went and got the firewire stuff and we have been working with the setups ever since. I’m probably going to set up both my notebooks on the patio so I can get the exact settings I want and clean up the other one for day and jump in the pool whenever I’m sticky…………grin……..boy, does that sound like a plan to me.

I’m so looking forward to my day off!
