I'VE BEEN PUTTING IN FACETIME ALL MONTH AND I'M GOING CRAZY. I NEED A NEW JOB.
I WANT THE GIRL TO COME BACK FROM CALIFORNIA SO I CAN LOOK AT HER AGAIN AND FIX HER DINNER. I HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL MONDAY.
I KEEP GETTING HANGOVERS AFTER ONLY 4 OR 5 BEERS THE NIGHT BEFORE. THIS IS UNSUPPORTABLE AND PERHAPS THE TRUE SIGN THAT I HAVE ENTERED MY THIRTIES. SHIT!!
AND I'M GLAD IT'S FRIDAY SO I CAN HAVE TWO DAYS OF NOT COMING IN TO THIS MEANINGLESS JOB! AND I'M TRYING NOT TO SABOTAGE MYSELF INTO THINKING THE CONFERENCE I'M GOING TO IN 3 WEEKS IS GOING TO BE ANOTHER DEAD END ROAD IN MY NEVER ENDING SEARCH FOR A NEW CAREER!
MY SERVERS DEAD; MY MAIL WAS STUCK IN CUSTOMS (PRESS RELEASES WITH CD's/DVD's INTENDED FOR ME BY MONDAY - DOUBLE U TEE EFF DANISH CUSTOMS?), AND TO TOP IT ALL OFF MY ELEVATOR BROKE IN THE AFTERNOON BUT I ONLY NOTICED AFTER FIVE; SO I CAN'T GO OUT WITH THE PRAM ALL DAMN WEEKEND. = AAAAAAARGH!
I'M AT WORK DOING SHIT I DON'T FIND THE LEAST BIT INTERESTING! I'M HAPPY AS A PIG IN SHIT!
THOSE TWO THOUGHTS ARE UNRELATED
DABITCH, CAN YOU LEAVE THE PRAM ON THE GROUND FLOOR (MEANING: IS THERE SOMEWHERE SAFE TO LEAVE IT/SOMEONE SAFE TO LEAVE IT WITH) FOR THE WEEKEND AND BRING THE PASSENGER DOWN SEPARATELY? IT MIGHT BE LESS CARRYING AROUND IN THE LONG RUN.
YOUR KEEN POWERS OF OBSERVATION ARE CORRECT: THE LINK TO THE MICROSOFT REMOTE DESKTOP WEB CLIENT IS *NOT* WORKING IN FIREFOX!
IT IS A FUCKING ACTIVE-X CONTROL, YOU DROOLING IDIOT! STOP ASKING WHY IT ISN'T WORKING!!
DON'T YOU GO LOOKING HURT WHEN I SNAP AT YOU! YOUR IDIOCY DESERVES MY DERISION! THIS IS NOT KINDERGARTEN, AND YOU ARE HELD TO STANDARDS OF COMPETANCY! DO YOU EVEN UNDERSTAND WHY YOUR QUESTION IS SO BLOODY FOOLISH?
EVERYONE INTERACTING WITH ME SO FAR TODAY HAS BEEN BITCHY AS HELL AND I'M FUCKING SICK OF IT. DON'T LECTURE ME ON COMPUTER VIRUSES WHEN YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT THE FUCK YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT, AND THEN ACT LIKE I'M BEING CHILDISH FOR CALLING YOU ON IT. DON'T GIVE ME A LAUNDRY LIST OF THINGS TO INCLUDE IN THE NEWSLETTER, WITH NO FURTHER INFORMATION ABOUT ANY OF THEM, AND THEN TELL ME THE NEWSLETTER SEEMS LIKE A LAUNDRY LIST AND MAYBE I NEED TO READ OTHER NEWSLETTERS TO SEE WHAT A NEWSLETTER SHOULD LOOK LIKE. I KNOW WHAT A FUCKING NEWSLETTER SHOULD LOOK LIKE, AND IT SHOULD HAVE NEWS, AND THE FACT THAT WE HAVE NO NEWS IS NOT REALLY MY FAULT.
OK, THE NEWSLETTER THING IS *REALLY* PISSING ME OFF. I CREATED BRAND-NEW NEWSLETTERS FROM SCRATCH FOR THREE OTHER COMPANIES. I KNOW WHAT A FUCKING NEWSLETTER IS.
