Hump Day


Morning all. It is the middle of the week. Let's try to finish it up strong.

I think I will go take a nap.

Sorry, I double checked, and it's not Friday. It sure feels like it should be though.

I'm so used to coming into the office when there's no one else here, that I get cranky when someone comes in early (on time). Especially when they're one of those fake cheery people and they want to do a bunch of stuff.

I'm going to make it a requirement that if anyone wants to talk to me before 9, they must bring me Starbucks.

Fuzzy, can I take a nap with you?

lol, Mz I am so not a morning person and I get crankier when I am greeted with cheeriness.
Slept good after crummy accident-prone night. Got about a 3inch cut/scrape on my left leg from walking into the open computer drawer. I had it open and my husband called me over to look at a paper. That set the tone for me dropping everything in sight. I am still quite tired though.

Fuzzy let me know when it's soda time. I am prepared today.

Hump on.

I agree that people shouldn't talk to me before 10. If I actually come in on time (8:30) it is still nice and quiet in here. Makes it a little easier to settle in and start doing my work. I don't like cheery people, especially when fake and it's still morning.

Mz - I'll be if you hang a sign to that effect (not talking to you before 9 or bring you good coffee if you do) people may leave you be.

And naps for everyone!

Hey Woo. I think you need a nap before soda time. Nice that you remembered you Mt Dew though.

It looks like JD's been joining in with coffee for soda time. So let's change it to soda and coffee time, and I'll join in.

I kind of renamed it beverage time some time last week. I was looking for beverage buddies. That will cover soda, coffee, tea and the other large assortment of possible beverages including the good old standby, water.

Good morning all.  I'm doing a couple loads of laundry this morning before I take off for a couple of days.  Youngest daughter and I are going with my dad tomorrow up to his cabin for a few days.  He's been saying for a while that his place really needs to be stained again, and since he's getting older, it's getting harder for him to do this kind of stuff.  So I volunteered to do it for him since I have the time.  He also informed me last night that he's been seeing quite a few bears around his place....he told me to bring my camera.  Um ok, but I might be too busy running in the opposite direction to get a picture of them.  weirdface

hump day it is.
Yesterday I had a disagreement with my boss. Long story short, I was right, he was wrong, his arrogance is only surpassed by his ignorance. You'd think a victory like that would fire me up or give me a certain sense of victory, like I just won a battle. Not the case, I'm exhausted and I need to be around this turkey again?

oh! let me know when its beverage buddy time, I will have coffee. OH I got to remember to bring my coffee to work today, I am almost out. I bought a bag of starbucks french roast this time. Last time I bought it, it was $8. Yesterday it was almost $10.

i'm a cherry morning person about 99% of the time. when i come into the office, i make the rounds and tell everyone good morning. if this routine that everyone is used to is altered in the slightest, then automatically everyone thinks i'm in a bad mood. it takes a lot to make me in a bad mood, although i'm easily irritated... and of course, i can be tamed with food...

nap time... did someone say nap time?

good morning everyone!

I don't mind a smile and a good morning. I'll smile and say good morning back. But "Good morning, how are you, I need you to do this right now," gets me grumpy. And this person is fake cheery, so you never know when she's sincere.

I used to never be in bad mood. But lately, I've noticed that I'll find myself in a bad mood and not even really know what caused it.

Um, I think it's called work. Or in my case, it is often the dealing with the traffic while driving to work.

Although, some days I just get up cranky. Then everything annoys me. But when I am in that mood I tend to keep to myself more than usual, just so I don't accidentially take it out on someone else.

Same here, when I'm in that mood, I try to keep to myself, and then I can get out of it. But when I'm trying to stay away from people because I know I'm in a mood, and they keep calling and coming into my office, it just makes the mood worse.

I just got a text from Fuzzy. She's in a meeting.

She has proclaimed that it is now officially beverage time.

Refreshment on.

Okay. Sorry I am late. Had a 10:30 meeting. Fun. But got a bagel and cream cheese. Nice.

Beverage on!

today I noticed that my mens multi-vitamin has no iron in it. I wonder why, and wonder if that isn't contributing to my sluggishness. I think I shall go by an iron supplement today.

today I noticed a real prevalence of these weeds all over the place that look like minauture dandelions, but they're not. they actually kinda look nice, but they are thick, especially alongside the medians of the freeway. No grass, totally these yellow weed flowers. There are some purple ones too.

Mornin' all.  I hope you're all off to a good start to your day, sleepiness not considered.

I had a horrible night last night and it bled over into today.

My laptop crashed, losing all of my emails, contacts, and most importantly my FireFox bookmarks.  This is particularly troubling because I had about 30 companies bookmarked that I was following daily in the hopes they'd have an opening in an area I wanted to work.

Now I gotta try to remember them all.

Then, about a week ago I noticed a small, clear pool of water in my bathroom.  I checked under the toilet to see if it was coming from there, but it seemed fine.  I wiped it up and assumed it was condensation drip from earlier.

Last night (this morning actually, around 3) I went into the bathroom and the pool was back.  Again, no sign of leakage from the toiled, but this time when I wiped it up I noticed the floorboard was damaged.

I went to the room next to the bathroom and sure enough, in the closet the carpet was wet, there's a drain in there that four small pipes feed into.  They are condenstation drains for the central air units.  It must have clogged because it was full to the top and a small trickle was running onto the carpet.

On the plus side, the apartment management impressed the heck out of me.

This is NO exageration, not even a little.  The maintenance guy was here within 5 minutes of my call, he had the professional carpet cleaners here less then five minutes after that (they were just finishing up a job in a vacant apartment a few apartments down). 

After only 20 total minutes they were all gone.  The carpet was steam cleaned, the pipe was unplugged and they'll be back Friday to replace the water damaged portion of the carpet padding.

Not bad!

I'm happy for you as for as apt maintenance and suddenly very sorry for myself. cry

They were supposed to fix my shower. Instead they fixed my husband's in the master bathroom. no.gif Apparently the apt mgr got confused and that is what she told them to do. But if they turned on his shower wouldn't they see that it was perfectly fine? hmm But she said yesterday that she promises that everything will be fixed and that we will learn to love them

Sorry to hear about your computer woes JR.

But i am glad that the management seems to be on top of things and took care of you.

Have a better day.

Woo, I thought about your troubles when I posted that. Hope it wasn't salt in the wound hmm.gif It's good that your management is vowing to make it better. Maybe you just happen to be catching them on some bad days.
