Odd day capped off by a catastrophic laptop failure at 6:00 pm: (hense this post is from my phone ) my laptop… my workmate, my muse, my toy, my best electronic friend had the mechanical equivalent of a meltdown.. and took with it everything i’ve done since my last backup a month ago.. how may powerpoints ? How many lines of code ? How many pictures…’ll never know. The funny thing is.. I felt a little bit of guilty pleasure..it will take all datomorrow to rebuild which roughly translates to ‘four day weekend’…
Every cloud has a silver lining..which reminds me.. tonight around. I had the awesome luck(?) To see a huge lightning bolt strike an electrical pole in richmond. It arked twice… maybe 12 feet then. The whole town went dark,, how cool is that ?
I’m about 3 days into my anticrisis.. Anticrisis ? what I mean is that I’m trying to stop worrying about work so much and convince myself that I like my work as much as people think I like my work.. it’s been fun. it’s almost like being happy… but it just takes a little more work.. I had a couple of tough meetings today.. and was able to shake off the ‘i just had a bad meeting’ feeling a little faster than usual.. .. I had one meeting from 3:30 till 8:30.pm . and another 9:30 till 10:30.pm. and they were both actually interesting and fun..
I wonder how log I can keep this up ? Wish me luck !
I gota million beetles on my step…. and I can’t get no sleep I gotta million beetles on my step now… and you know I just can’t sleep ‘cuz every time I close my eyes… them beetles start to creep
I gotta a million beetles on my step, lord yes them beetles getting deep there’s a million beetles on my step, mama and you know it’s bound to make me weep ‘cuz when I try to close my eyes … dontcha know that’s when them beetles start to creep
I did it again.. I managed to put my wallet in the wash machine.. this is at least the third time.. I wouldn’t care.. but I have some pictures in there that I look at all the time.. I grabbed them before they went through the dryer and laid them out carefully to dry..
It makes me so happy and so sad to look at these pictures..
