It’s Tuesday and it’s an agonizing Tuesday. It felt like a Wednesday and we sure can blame the daylight savings plan. I’m not used to it yet. I hate waking up when it’s dark out. I’m sure it’s a very small sacrifice that I can make to saving the country some energy, but I really wasn’t using that much, I swear. A big plus was the fact that it was almost 50 degrees when I left the apartment at 7:30. No winter coat needed, just me in my charcoal gray Hugo Boss pinstriped suit. I almost looked bangin’.

I do need a haircut though so that is on the list of things to do this weekend. Hopefully Tony will be free at Mr. L’s. Nothing severe, I’m letting my hair grow since the fade were looking a little militaristic and since I’m anti war, longish hair is on the menu. But it gets poofy and I think I look like Dick Shawn in ‘It’s a Mad Mad Mad Mad Mad World’. ‘I’m coming to get you Mama!’ He was very funny in that. Did you know that Dick Shawn died on stage? From wikipedia: During his final act, Shawn had been carrying on like he was a politician, saying various campaign cliches, including, “if elected, I will not lay down on the job.” He then lay face-down on the stage. And just kept lying there. The audience thought it was part of the act, but no, he was dead.

Work was tedious if only because the main computer program I have been using to do the data entry was down since everyone had been using it. That was annoying since I had a deadline to meet but there was nothing I could do. I have problems with working in such a small office. It gets cold sometimes because they open a window when it gets too hot. I sit in the middle of these fronts and usually make my situation easier by closing the door to the main room where everyone sits.

The problem is everyone goes through the door and leaves it open so I generally have to get up and close it again. Several times an hour. One person in particular can’t even close the closet door and I wind up closing that too. Another thing is, that for such a small office, communication is really messed up. Yesterday Naomi had me proofread copy for the new website. Fine, it took a little over an hour but I was done. Today, Wally forwards me Naomi’s email, and he asked me to basically do the same thing. I forwarded the necessary edits that I sent Naomi and that was the end of that.

Wally was in a joking mood today though and at one point we were talking as he was about to head outside for lunch and I forget what it was we were joking about but I told him to not be such a pussy. They finally got the program fixed and I did what I could with the data entry, even telling them that I’d be doing some entry at home tonight? I did? WTF?
