Take a number

susandennisIf one or two people are just piling it on me - work wise, I get all stressed. But when more than two people start going at it, I'm a big chill pill. Take a number... your crisis doesn't even make my morning top 10.
One of my favorite clients (and one of the ones with a crisis) called me this morning and with the aid of caller ID, I answered "Crisis Hotline, How May We Help You Today?" She cracked right up.
Then I got a teensy window of opportunity and made a mad dash to the grocery store and library where my stuff was just almost over due. Now I'm back having a liverwurst sandwich. And chips. Waffles with Ridges.
I think spam is the new hemlines..... Stock goes down, amount of spam goes up and Google's usually extraordinarily success spam filter is having a real hard time with the new stuff.
Because of the way my laptop wireless is configured, when I reboot the DSL modem, the laptop breaks connections and tries to get on it. Yes, I could reconfiogure the laptop but instead I'm using this as an excuse not to wear out the modem by restarting it.
About a year ago, I went from the medium fast DSL offering at Qwest to the fastest offering. At the time, I did not notice that much speed difference. The Clearwire is about the same rate as just under the medium fast Qwest level and all day long as I try to do the same stuff I do all the time and now I'm hitting delays, I've said to myself "Oh, now I remember..."
Before I got back to work, I should note that the Mariners play in Baltimore tonight which means the game is at 4 p.m. my time. I love living on the west coast. 4 p.m. is a perfect ballgame starting time for me. Thanks.
