Good and Bad

As I open to day's post, let's move along from bad things to good things. Shall we? After all, ending on a positive note would would certainly set the mood for later tonight.

To start, why was I hired my my current employer? By today's events, I would have to guess that it was to accept the raw end of a stick while having to gleefully accept the opinions of others. You see, I got pulled into a project yesterday in an attempt to help hasten the apparently slow progress of said project. Okay. I can help with this. I came up with a game plan to accomplish portions of the project and set forth to work it out. From my end, I made no progress this morning due to xyz crap and a doctors appointment mid morning. So I roll in this afternoon and get asked about how I intend to accomplish the goals. [Excuse me while I bend over next to a fan. Oh, that's better, pressure relieved.] My plan is apparently not acceptable because it will not be conductive to getting the project done TODAY! Well, wait a minute here. P.A. system vs. quite guy. You can see how this conversation went. Anyways, I had other stuff planned for the afternoon and I was NOT happy with the insinuation that the project HAD to be done today so that good news could be reported in tomorrow mornings staff meeting. Dear God. Not a fun afternoon folks. Project isn't done, but they will just have to live with it. I can dedicate more time with it tomorrow though. So it should get done by EOB. I think what really pissed me off the most is the final notion that the stuff had to be done his way and there was constant plugging that my action plan was more work than was required. Well, why did you ask for my help then?!

Okay, doctor's visit went well. Wound is healing great and I'm good to go. In a few weeks, I need to start massaging it for about 30 minutes each day. I should also use sunscreen. Apparently, a tan through this summer will only make the the wound show more prominently on a permanent basis.

All right, now for the good news!! [I'm already feeling better just thinking about it.] My new computer is IN. Got files transferred from old computer to new system and am ready to take it home. It will take me a while to get used to the new speed. Specs later along with photo's. Now without further procrastination, it's time to head for home. Gotta, gotta, gotta hook it up and play!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Cheers!
