2 x 0 = ?

Today of all days (and it's not even afternoon yet... barely) I have accomplished an incredible deal. I am now Smart Serve certified, which means I can use "no more force than is necessary" to boot people out of an establishment. Then I can get sued for it! (Sidenote: The number of things you can be sued for is ridiculous. Things completely out of your control make you liable. Stupid system.) I also ensured that I will be left alone at work for the next several hours! How's that, you ask? Well, when something needs to be transferred from Access to Excel, the least efficient way to do that is to make a hard copy and then enter all the information again manually. The most efficient to do that is to copy and paste. "The Man" wanted me to do it the first way, because they were convinced that the second way wouldn't work. Man, do I ever have free time now!

I guess that's only two. But as compared to yesterday when I spent the entire day in my jammie-jams mostly watching Friends while Stephie cleaned her apartment around me, that's a pretty damn huge improvement!

Today is the 22nd of December, which means that tomorrow morning I will be driving to Peterborough to see the fam! Jenny & I are doing our gift exchange before we leave, and I think it's safe to say that I'm pretty excited about it. Nora and possibly Xerox are coming to the Patch avec moi, but I need to find someone to feed the fish and a cranky chameleon for a few days. Any takers? There's $$$ in it for you!!! Well, maybe not "$$$"... more realistically something like "$".

My mechanic is slow slow slow. It constantly amazes me that a "20 minute job" can last for 36 hours. Meh. He does quality work, but the waiting is a pain in the ass. Hopefully the car will have heat and all will be well in the Buickverse.

Sitting and waiting for this page to load, I saw the "Word verification" feature to block spammers. It then occurred to me that I haven't been spammed in forever and a day! Whoa! I'm just going to go ahead and assume that they stopped spamming the really awesome and influential sites. Y'know... because they're so great.

And what's all this jargle I've been hearing about having a "point" to posts, or them being about "one thought only." If this was meant to be organized or professional, it sure as shit wouldn't be on the Inter Net!

bleah.
