raybearThe IT person fixed what I broke. She walked away saying, "I would wag my finger at you, but I think you're doing it to yourself enough already." How true. She's not even my therapist. Later by the elevator she teased me by letting me know she plans on harassing me for a week or so about my mistake, and my other co-worker wanted to very badly know what I had done wrong -- I think because she feels alone in her computer errors. When I explained what went wrong, I saw her eyes glaze over, not even understanding what my mistake was -- the situation was way too geeky. I should have lied and just told her the story of me editing a document and choosing "save" instead of "save as" and then asking the IT people to retrieve an archived version of the document so I didn't have to re-type a table of contents. That might have made her feel better.
Paradise Regained sent me a poster with a kitten hanging off a tree that said "Hang In There". Well, actually it said something about God and praying to be thin, and I was horribly confused and offended that she thought I would find it humourous until she explained that she sent it because we had a conversation about hatred for cheesey inspirational office posters and how I threatened to get her several "Hang In There" versions as a gift. Oops. Why did I think my friend had suddenly become an earnest fatphobic Christian? Probably for the same reason I deleted my work e-mail account.
In Other NewsTM, I need to do some reading on bisexual theory and bisexual legal and policy if I'm going to not have a complex about working on a national publication with the likes of Carol Queen. But I'm very excited to be plugged in with this project, especially since I can do it on work time and it's considered work. Versus the other things I do on work time which are not work.
Damon got a root canal this morning. As if I wasn't paranoid about my teeth already. I haven't seen a dentist in close to 5 years. This is probably a horrible horrible thing, though in my book it's only 'slightly bad'. I should rectify this soon, but I'm cheap with no dental plan. Anyone know a good dental facility in the Chicago area with reasonable prices? Scratch that. I just spoke with a co-worker and supposedly we do have insurance coverage. Now I just need to make the call to United. LAMF.
Guess what? It's nearly 4 and my a$$ is going home soon.
