Long-overdue Update

September 21st, 2003 · 2 Comments

Sorry I haven’t updated. I just haven’t been in the mood. Don’t know why.

Friday was incredibly busy. Had two co-workers call in sick– one in each of my jobs. Plus my other coworker is still out because of her broken ankle. That left only me on the switchboard. Little old me, not been there for a month even, and still VERY uncertain about my job. I thought I was going to go mad. Luckily it was Friday, and it wasn’t nearly as busy as it has been earlier in the week. Still, it was busy enough to cause me a great deal of stress. And the fact that Adele needed me too made it that much worse. You see, Judy was going out of town for the week, so we were already down one person in our unit. Then Carol called in sick. And to make matters worse, one of the Prelitgation panels that Judy was supposed to prepare for didn’t get prepared. Not only was it not on the schedule, none of the paperwork had been made for it– and the FILE HAD DISAPPEARED. Here we had doctors, and lawyers, and chair people, who are all getting paid by us, and we had NOTHING to give them. We searched high and low, and couldn’t find it. As of 4:30 on Friday, we still hadn’t found it. They limped along as well as they could– I’m sure the lawyers had thought to bring evidence with them. But it was still a disaster.

Got my hair cut on Saturday. Is now about 3 1/2 inches shorter, which seems kind of drastic but doesn’t actually make that much difference when my hair was as long as it was. It’s still about halfway down my back.

Went to the BYU game. We were robbed. I know, I know, we could have played better. Our offense is still young– especially our quaterback, who is a true freshman. Not that he got any help from the offensive line. Gave him no pass protection whatsoever. But the refs were incredibly bad. Handed the game to Stanford on a silver platter.

Have been thinking about waxing philosophical about internet friendships. But will have to wait for later. :P

Still having Y!M issues. They’re spreading just slightly to AIM, but nowhere near as bad as with Y!M. I just don’t get it. If it’s not Y!M, it must be something w/ my connection. But on BOTH computers? I don’t get it.

Very sad about GT. Even sadder because it’s all because of ended friendships. *sigh*

Oh, and according to this quiz gacked from Angua, I am 78% obsessed with Harry Potter.

Mellie, I want to see what *your* score is. :P
