Today was one of the busier days at work in recent memory. We were short staffed one person in the first place, and poor Dan0 got stuck training a newbie. I can’t remember the last time I fell asleep during dinner watching Law and Order, but I was in and out of consciousness today for sure. I’m sure Matt didn’t notice since I don’t snore. Ever. And anyone who says otherwise is a LIAR.

I even got decent sleep last night. I’ve just felt pretty spent the last few days.

That’s all I got. Catch you on the flipside.

Easy money

So we moved to a new timesheet program right when I was switching shift. This means the manager who approves my timesheets changed during the migration. Somehow I slipped through the cracks on that. This isn’t to say I’m not getting paid, it’s just that nobody is approving my timesheets. Technically I could be putting in like 90 hours each week and nobody would ever see it. And it’s not that I’m slipping under the radar, it’s that only my approving manager is even ABLE to see my timesheets. Currently, since there is no approving manager, there is nobody that is able to see them.

This has been going for a few weeks now, and they can’t seem to get through the helpdesk ticket system to get me set up properly. My manager suggested I just put in 24 hours and 24 hours of overtime in for each day. He figured that might jump out at them enough to get them on it.

We have news on monitors 24/7 at work. There’s some fluff-news morning show on atm. The little sponsorship slide comes on before the commercials “This program brought to you by Tylenol PM. Stop hurting and start SLEEPING!” in a nice cheery voice. first thing in the morning. Yeah? bite me. nice timing.

Traffic. Massachusetts traffic on the pike. It’s not as bad as I95, but it can be pretty bad. Sometimes I think I attract the worst of the worst drivers, but I tell myself that’s silly. Surely it has something to do with my driving style or simple chance right? I used to think so anyways. I remember a couple of times some years ago driving with lordbrand where he’d comment “I never see so many asshole drivers doing crazy things as when I’m driving with you”. It seems I’m a magnet for nutty drivers, and I have a sign on my bumper saying “fuck with me”. I need to see about reversing polarity on the magnet and getting that sign removed =P.

Dust to dust

I’m turning older today. Boooo!!!

I was talking with about birthdays over the weekend since mine was looming over my head like so many thunderstorms (of doom). We were recalling the days when birthday money was such a great thing. You could finally buy that special something you’ve been eyeing at the toystore forever. Now any checks I get make me think more of “which bills can I take care of”. Funny how things change. I’d envy Peter Pan if he wasn’t a crossdresser. I’m just not into that. I don’t care what you heard on the street. I don’t even know that guy…

Oh and I’m totally jacking this from Bri’s LJ… Since my b’day is on 6/6/06 and all. And that makes me EVIL (queue Kevin McDonald)
