Sunday interuptus
Jul. 24th, 2011 03:48 pmIt seems like everything I try to do today is getting interrupted. No biggie. I have time and no mad agenda.
I was watching the transfer of TWIT.TV from their new studio to their old one - the live broadcast - when neighbor Ann dropped in to chat about nothing. Which was fine. I got to see the goodbye to the old and a bit of a march down the street to the new. I saw enough. I'll watch the actual first show via Tivo tomorrow.
Then I was watching something else and got an IM from a work teammate. She'd been kicked off the corporate network which happens to all of us at one time or another and is a royal bitch because it usually happens at the worst time - when you are broke and need the billable hours or when you are in the middle of a giant project with no backup. As it turns out she is pretty behind in her work (she's one who isn't inclined to work ahead much) and broke so she's in a bit of a panic. She could be up to 3 weeks without income.
I stopped and scrapped the content of her bugs and gathered her source material so she would at least have enough work to maybe get by for a few days - at least cover her ass with the client. It was a pain in the ass and took forever but it's a horrible situation to be in and she's not a bad one to have points in the bank with.
The Mariner game should make
rsc and
jwg a very happy pair. It means a sweep for them and a new record for the Mariners - longest losing streak in franchise history. Arugh. They do not play tomorrow which, at this point, can be considered a favor from God.
I figured out that probably tomorrow is the day that Southwest will have the CES travel dates available for ticket purchase. Finally.
Also tomorrow is the date most speculate that my Epic 4G phone will get a major update. It needs one.
Since Friday's incident, I've been checking my blood pressure rather frequently and it seems high. I hate like the dickens to start down the rabbit hole of involving the cute doctor in this but I guess I will. Maybe. It means going in, getting checked. Getting new/different pills. Going back, getting checked again. Etc. Etc. I just hate it so much. But, I do need to stay alive for my brother's visit in a few weeks and for CES in January so I guess I'll call next week and get started down that slippery slope.
Bitch moan bitch moan... every single thing in my life is so far above the median bar that my gripes sound silly even to me. I can't even say it could be worse... it's not even bad!
Sigh. Ok, now I'm bitching about not having things to legitimately bitch about. This is beyond ridiculous.
