Exhausted

Icon 1 Comments
Holy crap am I tired. My boss, in his infinite wisdom, decided to move up some of my deadlines from June 30 to March 30. Like I don't have enough to do as it is! I put in a full 8 hour day on Saturday without intending to. I sat down, started working, and told myself that I'd break at 12 for lunch. Well, I looked at the clock at...

There's very little of substance to report, but I figured I would anyway. My taxes have been filed. Good refund. I think Beau will owe a bit, but I can offset some of it. Work's been busy. I finished my response to the Texas Auditor today, while doing a property tax rendition for DeKalb County, Georgia and applying to Wyoming for an...

Well

I hate working weekends. Especially now that I don't get paid for them. Still, it's amazing at some level that in 4 hours today I accomplished more than I had in the past 37.5. Of course, neither of my bosses were present.

Bought something for my mom from Hermes today. Should cheer her up somewhat. I suppose if I started saving up my...

Iesu!

January is NOT supposed to be this busy of a month! Why can't people tell me BEFORE LUNCH that the auditors are coming on Monday, that all of my end-of-year accounts have been changed without my knowledge, and that I need to re-do it all immediately? Furthermore, when the fragging-hell did I become a General Ledger accountant?! I am...

This could be bad.

My mom, who's been on FMLA (that's the Family & Medical Leave Act) for 4 months due to breaking her hip was fired today. Funny, I'm fairly certain that's not allowed. She's going to sue for wrongful termination AND start looking to get long-term disability from the government. At some level, I think I expected this.

The week from Hades

Icon 2 Comments
This was an incredibly busy week. Year-end, extra work from my boss, extra work from the holding company, merger-related nonsense, and sales taxes.

Yes, I said Sales Taxes. Why are you looking at me that way?

In the repair division is this guy, whom I shall refer to as "this guy." He's essentially an Accounts Receivable Clerk...

Oy.

Without going into too much (or, any) detail (since it would bore my 2 readers to tears), it's days like today that make me wish my "Yoda" were still alive.

2008

I have to keep typing that until I remember that it isn't 2007 anymore. A new year. No resolutions: I don't make them. If I need to change something about my life, I do it immediately. Why wait for the calendar to change?

Lots of kick-ass shopping yesterday and today. Silk-cashmere long-sleeve zip-neck at Neiman Marcus (normally...

F christmas?

Icon 5 Comments
So it's been just about a year since I said to "F Christmas." Perhaps I was too hasty in saying that. I never enjoyed Christmas. It's always been a fairly dangerous time for me. I hated all of it. The trees, the music, the ceremonies, all of it. I did everything I could to separate myself from it. I forbade Beau in the...

Pictures at last!

I finally got around to taking some pics of the new place for those who are interested (Re: ShyShy). Rather than upload a bunch of individual pictures, I'll just be posting the zip file. This really is a nice place. Or at least it will be once it doesn't look like a pigsty in 60% of it.
