Lysa's Blog

Wow, where have I been???

I guess I forgot to blog lately. That's what a real job does to a person I guess. How wonderful it would be to have a dream job that doesn't wear me out, so that I come home and do useful things, rather than spending all of my time doing silly, frivolous things, like feeding my MySpace dragon and picking goofy fights with people on VR.

Instead, I spend my days listening to:
Can you tell me where my blinds are? I sent them in for repair two weeks ago, and I haven't seen them.
Oh, well, that's not good. What's the sidemark?
Oh, I don't know their last name. Maybe I put Kelly as the sidemark?
Okay then, do you have the RGA?
Oh, uh, no, I wrote it down at the office, but now I'm in my car and I don't remember what it was.
Okay then, well, I'll have to email the repair department and then call you back.
Well, can't you just look it up on my account? My customer keeps calling me.
(Yeah? I know the feeling) I'm sorry, but without the RGA, I'll have to track this the hard way. This takes time. I'll call you back within an hour.

Two hours later, unable to locate the repair, the customer calls back...
"Oh, never mind.... your driver just delivered it."

Sigh...
Anyhow, I have a whole night to play around, make graphics, and listen to nothing more stressful than the sound of my fingers flying over the keys, and the tv in the background. Which I should really turn off, since I'm not really watching it. Tomorrow I get to blow my diet and stuff myself with gourmet thanksgiving food, to which I am contributing gourmet green bean casserole. There really is such a thing, stop laughing. On a related note, did you know that tarragon, which I am flavoring the aforementioned casserole with tomorrow, is both a spice and a type of dragon?? How cool is that???
