Work was containable and I ended the day nearly caught up. I have one thing left over and I can do it this weekend or Monday - either way. Nice.

The work bugs came in sporatically so in between I made my new gym bag!

There's a place to hook my earphones, a change purse, and two additional pickets for tissues, chapstick, a pen, some cards to make notes on and oh and also a hooky thing to hang my keys on and it's bright and pretty.  I can hang it off the arm of the treadmill and everything will be quite handy.  I'm pleased with it.  I'll test tomorrow.

I had to reboot today and when I came back up, all of a sudden, Outlook wanted to know my password every single fucking time it went for mail.  On all three accounts.  That got old ... oh, immediately.  I finally found a registry thing to tweak and it settle down but it was really stressful there for a bit.

I would like a Citi Master Card and have been trying to apply online.  But every time, instead of getting 'your application has been accepted!' I get 'they system has timed out, please try again.'   Nice.  I called and they are mailing me an application.  I could apply on the phone but their phone people are more annoying than average.  I had occasion today to look at my virus vault that my (PAID FOR version of - please no lectures on using free software) AVG keeps.  There is a cookie from Citi that is hanging in the vault as infected.  I sent a note to AVG technical support requesting advice.  No answer yet. 

I could turn AVG off and then do the application.  I can't believe Citi would have anything that would infect my computer but it's not critical - it's a back up credit card that I don't really need so why chance it?

When I reboot I get the Quick Time blue Q in my task bar.  I do not want it there.  I don't really want it on my computer.  Curiously, it does not appear to be on my computer. It's not in any program list.  Turns up on no searches and nowhere else I can find.  Except when I reboot and it turns up on the task bar.  It's a mystery...

I got a letter from the estate bitch today - it was to me, my brother and sister. It contained a check for $28.72 - wooohooo! - but the real news is the words "Within the next 2 weeks, you will be receiving the final closing documents for the estate." 

I'll believe it when I see it but this is better than the usual 'soon.'

The baseball game was not on TV. It is on radio - between snow delays.  I listened on the radio.  At 6 p.m. they were 5 hours into the game, 1 out away from a complete game.  Cleveland was ahead 4-0 and the Mariners had the bases loaded.  I gave up listening to watch news on TV. I'm sure the Mariners lost if they started playing again.

Dinner time...

How cool is that bag?!? I like what you did, great idea. Is that outdoor chair webbing at the top and the handle?

Right click, go to Quicktime Preferences. Somewhere in there is "show in system tray" - click it off and it goes away. :) I have to do that every time iTunes or the like updates. Annoying, n'est-ce pas?

But they didn't, so they didn't. You probably knew that already by this time.

The bag is GORGEOUS. It makes me covet it in spite of having totally different storage needs, just 'cause it's so very pretty. :)
