I thought knowing how to configure networks would be difficult. Boy was I wrong when comparing to dealing with the business side of technology. Vendors and sales people can really bring your day down. I spend most of my day working on costs of my big move coming up. I did very little tech work. I did get to do a bit of ad hoc training with our resolution team. These are the customer service rep?s who answer e-mail?s from customers and other call center rep?s. note to self, when I hear my name mentioned in a conversation, do not stop and see what is up. That is how you are caught in a discussion!
I sat through a weekly management meeting again. That is the big event for Monday?s. it wasn?t too long, everyone got it down to an hour and a half.
My friend Dave IM?d me last week to do lunch. I have not seen him in a while, and I need to setup a time do that with him. He only works across the street but we never get together. In all honesty, we don?t always get along, but he means well. I also never see my friends nick, john, & Jeff from over there. I need to call those guys. They used to go out drinking after work at the same bar we do, but they are not there that much anymore.
Nothing going on in the social front. I need to get online again and see what comes of that online dating thing. Still not a big fan of that idea, but everyone I speak to has good things to say about it. I guess I started out on the internet too early, back then internet dating was frowned upon. Now it is hip! I still have an issue with chatting online with strangers. I do it with friends all the time, but not with strangers.
Enough of my bitching. I am sitting on the train going home doing this blog. I am also trying to connect my cell phone to the internet so I can IM my friend rich. I forgot to get back to him before I left work. Yes, I am really a computer person. I am trying to connect my laptop via Bluetooth to my cell phone. It actually works pretty well, especially using my powerbook. The problem is that during this dam train ride I get terrible cellular service, so I cant get a steady signal. I have done it before, but as I type this sentence I give up on my third and final attempt. Oh well, it is cool when it does work. I will call rich when I get home. So much for the always connected idea.
Note to self, I had to take a bextra today. Started getting a mild migraine so I took one before lunch. I am also using this blog to log those lovely head pain events! I also took some fureset on Friday. Not sure if I noted that over the weekend. I may need to go back to the doctor. Seems like I am taking the meds a lot recently. Of course the change in weather always screws with my head. It was 70 Saturday and 40 Sunday. Stop the madness. Ok done ranting on about this and that. More tomorrow, I hope!
