Blog from the weekend

Mood: Excited and slightly annoyed

I got a laptop today. It's a Dell Inspiron and that's about the most I know about it, lol. I got it cheap, second hand. It used to belong to a student but they needed money the way every student does. It's only a couple of months old and works great so, why the hell not.
I'm actually sitting at Nanny's house (took the wee ones for a visit) watching my kids play around the living room and watch Little Man Meatball try to destroy every single ornament in the place. I think there is something about the homes of grandmothers that they are legally obligated to fill their homes with things that grandchildren just shouldn't have. It's nice here though, quiet, good breeze coming in the window, no crack dealers living across the street. I especially love the lack of crack dealers. OMG, if you could see some of the people that go in and out of that place across from me, you would be in stitches laughing. Honestly, I'm probably going to hell for laughing at them considering what kind of horrible place they're in if they're stuck smoking crack but considering I'm going there for gluttony and sloth, I may as well allow myself a little giggle while I'm at it. It really is sad though to think of the situation that these people are in and I don't think I really want to ruin my mood thinking about it. God bless them though, I couldn't imagine.

Work was alright this week. It was a long week but OK, I only almost quit twice. Once it was just thinking about it, the other time I actually walked out. Ugh, something else I don't want to think about to ruin my mood. I just have to say that I refuse to take the blame for a mistake made by someone else, especially when their job is catching the mistake. There was one document I was editing that made me laugh the whole way through. When you think that these documents are mainly site remediation and environmental assessments, there isn't much in there to laugh at. Actually, they are quit dry and hard to get through without falling asleep at times. This one made me laugh because it was full of references to WTF. WTF to me is the texting/instant messaging acronym for What The F*ck but in the document it was a reference for Water Treatment Plant. The thing is that everytime I saw it in the document I was reading it the texting/messaging way and it really made me laugh. Alright, writing this down now I realize that it wasn't even funny.

There was a lot more I wanted to blog about today but Little Man Meatball is destroying the house...
