So today was a little frustrating. It started with my new backup drive complaining, and then problems seemed to migrate to the system's root drive -- probably because of aborted root drive mirroring. I seem to have made good progress in cleaning up the mess, but it's hard to feel good about as it was not time i expected to be spending.
Similarly, Mr M is not well and has made a variety of bodily messes in a variety of places. The kitchen was a wreck to begin with: some progress was made there. I think we're trying to get M a vet visit tomorrow. Christine has procrastinated and the dental office has closed: she needs to have a wisdom tooth removed that is now causing her pain.
Also, my patience was blown to smithereens by an hour and forty minutes of work phone calls. We have a situation where someone is being assigned to do X and really doesn't have the appropriate skills to do X. While my boss says it's not my job to manage getting X done, he and i both know that the other folks involved aren't going to make it get done. So i find myself explaining to the writer how to use Word. I am now going to see if Framemaker can import well styled Word docs.
I did take the wedding dress to the consignment shop. It's still in its coffin, i mean, sealed in its nitrogen filled box, but i did take it out of the external carton and the plastic lining bag, and pulled free the insert that covered the plastic window. So, i saw the dress before leaving it for the manager (who is sick) to consider. Christine bought a great dress for her sister's wedding
Oh curses: Our web server is down.
We did have a nice brunch, even if it was at 1:30 (Kitchen a wreck.)
We are going out to see "Where the Wild Things Are"
Also, Good and Plenty licorice candies and honey flavored candy corn (like Brach's) make a fun combination. I enjoy it. Not sure anyone else would.
