my three minute blog:
it’s been two hours since i’ve been able to do any work at work and now that everything is up and running again, i can’t seem to make myself pick up where i left off. i want to go back to reading my book or just leave and close this day with a resounding slam of the door. i want to enjoy the bright, sunny day and the brisk breeze. wow, it’d be a perfect day for playing frizbee in the park. *sigh* if only. maybe i should have gone home at one like i thought of.
instead, i got to have bitchy val glare at me and the pile of work she gave me which i was unable to do because of network problems. i wanted to turn around and say to her “hey, you know this is not my problem and if you have issues with me not getting your mess cleaned up fast enough for you, then you can just take it to my boss.” fuck. i thought i’d be less angry about her attitude by now. it’s been a week…
that’s okay. survivor’s on tonight.
That happens to me sometimes; not the annoying Val thing. I’m referring to having a hard time getting to the task(s) at hand. It happens to me at least once a week.
At least I have toys to play with here…
*perks up* did you say toys?
i have toys, but they’re mostly decorative figurine type stuff. i’d bring in my rubic’s cube & etch-a-sketch, but i’m pretty sure someone would steal them.
a little clarification; while I do have toys (an airplane, a few gumby-type figures, and other nick-nacks), I consider most of the servers we have in our lab as toys.
I’m a geek that way…
an airplane??
Yes, it’s a Continental Airlines MD-11 1/450th scale professional model that I have in my office. I’m a fledgling pilot and wanted to be a professional pilot all my life. It was only after I left the Marines that I gave it up for the money of the computer industry (thank God!). Now I get to fly when I want to; just go to the airport, rent a plane, and fly wherever I want…
oh. okay… i don’t know why, but i thought it was a real airplane. =)
i’ve always wanted to fly a glider… i think it’s the idea of just floating, no engines disturbing the peace which appeals to me.
I wish I had a real airplane in my office… that would RULE! I’d NEVER be in the office… I’d be out flying around all day!
bloo!
