wracking my brain
Does anyone have a transcript of Mark Bernstien's a Heif Bristory of FI Sci?  I know its out there and I can't find it.

Post Roxx Halloween party
I pulled a 22 hour shift at the coffee shop for the Halloween party.  Once I'm off at 7pm I'm falling down.

Missed every one.
Back from OVFF. This was a con I needed. I haven't seen most every one since last year if not longer. It makes me realize just how long it has been, and how great it was to hang out and talk with people who aren't customers.  Don't get me wrong, some of them are really great people, but, I still have to disguise myself as a responsible adult.  Have to go make the coffee. (hopefully) more later.

Just a little late
No no. Not that kind of LATE!

So Happy Valentines Day to every one. Or for those of you more cynical Happy VD!
Work is going very well, aside from showing up ready to work today, I was off today.
Kinda sucked. BUT on the plus side I did get to come home and tell John I decided
I had to tell my boss I couldn't stay at work today because I had to spend time with him.
He looks at me like I'm Wonder Woman when I do that. Did I mention this is the second time in
the past 3 weeks I've gone in on my day off. All things being equal, I'd rather show up on my
day off than not show up a day when I'm scheduled.

I hate to admit how behind the times I am. but I've just started watching Veronica Mars, very cool.

Happy New Year to all
For those who I've missed seeing in 2005, maybe this year will have our paths cross once again. For those of you who I have been lucky enough to have shared a conversation, meal, or just a hug, I am better for it.

May this year be better than the last. -me

King Kong
Ok, so I went and saw King Kong last week with  andreweigelof course,
</span>supurrkittenbastardcatand
</span>taichikitty  all the way from the west coast. 

Movie was good, I had a blast watching supperkitten getting major wiggins from the big bugs.
My biggest complaint was on the island, I'm sorry, I love Peter Jackson, and Naomi Watts, but
what the hell was with the critters on that island thinkin little skinny Ann was the tastiest thing they've ever seen??!?!

I mean I have seen pot heads with a 2 day smokeout go after a twinkie with less gusto than the t-rex trio chased her.

I mean if she had cream filling or a chocolaty center I might understand it.  Any one think the 'gotta eat the girl' segment went

why I love computer geeks
Topic: HUMOUR
Apparently, this is an actual letter of resignation from an employee at "Zantex Computers", Australia, to his boss, J Pilgrim. His boss, known as Pilly, apparently resigned very soon afterwards!

Dear Mr Pilgrim

As an employee of an institution of higher education, I have a few very basic expectations. Chief among these is that my direct superiors have an intellect that ranges above the common ground squirrel. After your consistent and annoying harassment of my co-workers and myself during the commission of our duties, I can only surmise that you are one of the few true genetic wastes of our time.

Asking me, a network administrator, to explain every little nuance of everything I do each time you happen to stroll into my office is not only a waste of time, but also a waste of precious oxygen. I was hired because I know how to network computer systems, and you were apparently hired to provide amusement to myself and other employees, who watch you vainly attempt to understand the concept of "cut and paste" for the hundredth time. You will never understand computers. Something as incredibly simple as binary still gives you too many options. You will also never understand why people hate you, but I am going to try and explain it to you, even though I am sure this will be just as effective as telling you what an IP is.

Your shiny new iMac has more personality than you ever will.You walk around the building all day, shiftlessly looking for fault in others. You have a sharp dressed useless look about you that may have worked for your interview, but now that you actually have responsibility, you pawn it off on overworked staff, hoping their talent will cover for your glaring ineptitude. In a world of managerial evolution, you are the blue-green algae that everyone else eats and laughs at. Managers like you are a sad proof of the Dilbert principle. Seeing as this situation is unlikely to change without you getting a full frontal lobotomy reversal, I am forced to tender my resignation; however I have a few parting thoughts.

1. When someone calls you in reference to employment, it is illegal to give me a bad recommendation. The most you can say to hurt me is "I prefer not to comment." I will have friends randomly call you over the next couple of years to keep you honest, because I know you would be unable to do it on your own.

2. I have all the passwords to every account on the system, and I know every password you have used for the last five years. If you decide to get cute, I am going to publish your "favourites list", which I conveniently saved when you made me "back up" your useless files. I do believe that terms like "Lolita" are not usually viewed favourably by the administration.

3. When you borrowed the digital camera to "take pictures of your mothers birthday", you neglected to mention that you were going to take pictures of yourself in the mirror nude. Then you forgot to erase them like the techno-moron you really are. Suffice it to say I have never seen such odd acts with a ketchup bottle, but I assure you that those have been copied and kept in safe places pending the authoring of a glowing letter of recommendation. (Try to use a spell check please. I hate having to correct your mistakes.)

Thank you for your time, and I expect the letter of recommendation on my desk by 8:00am tomorrow. One word of this to anybody, and all of your little twisted repugnant obsessions will be open to the public.

Never f*** with your systems administrator. Why? Because they know what you do with all that free time!

Sincerely

Adrian Barragan

Ok so I've taken some phone orders. And I'm not dead. So I'm thinkin' I'll be able to handle this just fine. Once I've gotten the script down, and I'm sure where things are, I'll be a natural.

New Job
Well here I am at my new call center job. We are all at lunch and in about 15 minutes I'll be taking my first call. I'm kinda nervous, but we have had lots of training, I'm sure I'll do fine. Wish me luck.

A deal with Andy
Andy and I are thinking about a sibling for John, and we are going to start trying in about 4-6 months. Andy and I are both going to lose weight, how much he loses doesn’t realy matter, but I promised to loose 40lbs befor we catch. Mostly I think I need the modivation, besides it'll set me back to my start weight before I had John. So I'll need help and encouragemen.

My current weight is 190lbs

I'm not big on fad diets, but I am pretty good about portion control and exercise. Once my schedule shakes out I'm hoping to start yoga. Wish me luck

All work and no play makes Jinny a dull girl...
Well that would be more accurate if it said "All work and MORE WORK makes Jinny an exhausted girl..."

Once again I am working the hours of two people, as far as money goes this is great! More overtime than I know what to do with and no time to spend any money. Andy and I did go out on our anniversary, but I had to work from 8am to 4pm that day, and repeat that the next morning. Not exactly a recipe for sleeping in late to get some extra cuddles in. If my boss wasn't working just as hard as I am I'd be getting just a little ticked off.

In another note John has descoverd the power of "NO!" He will scamper down the hallway naked while I'm chasing him with a new diaper giggleing "No,no,no,no..." until I catch him, pin him down with my leg (thanks for that technique Becky) and plant his little butt in the diaper and fasten it. Its a good thing he's so cute.

I'm gonna call it a night, I may be working another double tomorrow.

Not a double
I was lucky enough to not have to work a double, I can't tell any one why because of the HIPPA act. So knowing what that is, you can probably guess where my client was. It was a good evening, I got in the tub with John, and afterward, before putting him to bed we got to play and roll around on the bed. The game was I pretend to sleep and he'd smack my shoulder and I'd sit up suddenly and say "Whaaat!". For his part he'd dissolve into the best belly laugh ever. I have no idea why it was funny, but he was tickled for about 20 repetitions. He is a silly boy, I don't know what I'd be doing with out him around.

I am also looking forward to the Game tomorrow. It'll be good to get back into it.

Well, things are as back to normal as they ever get around here. Mom is home from the hospital, after some minor surgury. (If you wanna know for what ask her, I've had the whole HIPPA act beaten into me.) I'm working, we are planning on attacking the rest of the basement. We have a battle plan, but you know what they say about those and meeting the enemy. We are also sketching out the plans for the kitchen, it still being fun because it is off in a distant future as far as when it will need to be done.

I am thinking of going to a yoga center around the corner from where I used to live in Area 51. I need to get back into it but I think I am lacking in the self dicipline needed to do it on my own. That and if I make a commitment to go I have a reason to not pick up the "Oh, just one more" extra shift. That and I'm afraid if I don't do something pieces are just gonna start fallin' off. ;)

I've been getting better...
For some reason I have been in a wonderfull mood.  It can't be work, because we are having our yearly audit from the county.  I have to be in at 9 am tomorrow so we (my boss and I)  have to go through all of the consumer books and make sure everything is in order.  We have 36 hours to be ready. 

With all of this I was expressing  much more stress.  Insted I cut the grass while Andy gave John a bath.  It has been a good few days.

Wonderful day
I got to sleep in this morning.  We were up late gamming on line with Kevin and Joy, so it was heven to just roll over and keep sleeping.  This was all due to the free time and overnight kidnapping that Gramma perpitrated on John.  I managed to be dressed for very little of the day and have my PJs on the rest of it.  Now thanks to my wireless card I can sit on the couch and watch my guilty pleasure, Forensic Files.

Work has been, well work. Less hours this week but the bull shit level has gone up.  Its just the usual once a year audit by the county.  There is nothing I can go into due to the privacy laws.  Lets just say, its absurd, and silly.

I have fallen in love with the TiVO.  Any show that catches my fancy I can just set it to record and watch it later. That has gone as far to preserve my sanity as Andy's back rubs.  

I'm looking forward to the Filk that Phill is throwing.  Andy and I are going to bring John, with as good as he's been, he'll be just fine.
