My stepdad has visted twice in the past month. I leave him alone with my computer and I come home and it has lost it's history. All those websites that I remember by starting to type in the first two or three letters are gone. AGAIN.

Because I am swamped beyond belief, my colleagues very nicely came along and took some of my work away from me today.

So, I'm still not entirely sure what was wrong with my printer yesterday, but at least part of the problem was I was trying to make it print a blank piece of paper out of notepad and it didn't want to do that. It's mostly working now.

There is a network printer, which I can connect to, and it's not the end of the world. It's just not on my desk.

Today, suddenly, my computer and my printer stopped talking to each other. I was getting a little error message saying things had failed to print, but I'm not even getting that anymore. I don't hear it do the winding noises it usually makes when it starts to print things. It just does nothing. I can make it spit out a test page, but that's directly on the printer. (Also, I hit a whole bunch of buttons until something happens, and then out comes the page. I'm not really sure which one I'm supposed to press to make the test page print.) I went through Windows' help guidance thing, and boy was it unhelpful. I don't really know what to do.

Our new temp sitting at the front desk doesn't answer the phone. I don't understand why.

After at least three weeks of cursing at our kitchen for being too dark, Brianne and I went off to Home Depot to get new florescent light bulbs for the brighter light in our kitchen. Our kitchen is almost bright enough again! Hurray! I will still turn on all the lights, I'm sure, as I hate working in a dark kitchen, and want as much light as possible. But there will be no more cooking mostly by the light over the stove.

I sweetened my coffee to drink it while eating donut holes. I finished the donut holes before I finished the coffee, which is now cold, and so sweet it's a little sickening.

I am a recent convert to the magic of text messaging. It came about because we added free unlimited text and picture messaging (withing Verizon, of course, cause this is Verizon) to our phone service. I now love it. My roommates, however, are thrilled with their low-tech phones, and despise texts. So, I'm sitting here, trying to figure out whether or not Tracy is bringing Amy back to our house again tonight, and knowing that calling will probably be futile, but a text message would just piss her off. ((sigh))

You would never be able to tell that I spent last Wednesday cleaning my office.

I stayed home from work yesterday, because I had been rather sick the night before, and thought I should take another day of lying around rather than trying to concentrate on things. (I should probably be doing that today as well; I feel queasier today than I did yesterday). Sam was rather thrilled that he got to sleep on me all day. At 7, which is when I've been getting home all summer, he went and sat by the front door waiting for me. It was really cute.

My boss accidentally deleted something I spent hours on for her. Now I have to recreate it. Damn damn double damn.

Brianne is on some nebulous quest for "the perfect jeans". She wanted to drag me to some mall more than an hour away in order to try to find "the perfect jeans". She is crazy picky, and shops entirely differently than I do, and announces that she will refuse to go into some store because five years ago they were selling pre-ripped jeans. I balked. It's absurd. There are like three stores that she's willing to go into, and they exist far closer to our house. She has some weird objection to the mall that's like 10 minutes from where we live.

Last night, I left my cell phone on my desk. This isn't a huge big deal, I didn't have any emergency "I must call such and so" situations last night. I have, however, been using my cell phone as my alarm clock for kind of a while now. I used my iPod instead (which is fine), except it went off in my office at 7. One of my coworkers actually gets here at 7, and spent a while trying to figure out where the music was coming from. I felt rather bad for her, when she told me.

This is what happens when your three hold punch sucks. You press too hard and them it suddenly slams and you wind up hurting your knuckles. _

Is this news because they have proved something? I swear when I was in preschool we were told the dinosaurs were wiped out because of an asteroid.

Yesterday I bought a pair of shoes which I thought were totally adorable. I tried them on in a 9, cause every other shoe by Kenneth Cole that I'd tried on all day was perfect in a 9. Well, my ankles popped right out of the 9s, but in the store the 8 1/2 seemed to fit perfectly. Now I am wearing them and I think my feet are going to die.

I am growing to suspect that our database tech support people have caller ID and don't answer the phone when we call.
