Fail Day

[clevermanka]

My MP3 player at work suddenly stopped allowing me to rip CDs to it. WTF? I just ordered four new CDs from Lovegarden, and unless I figure out WTF is the deal here, I won't be able to listen to them at work.

Speaking of work...let's not. Speak of it, that is.

Oh, hey. I just now realized that my computer here at the office is failing to recognize all USB-type memory devices. It doesn't just fail to record, it fails to read the MP3 player. And when I tried to download a photo of me and my lovely St. Barbara, it doesn't recognize the camera.

What is the deal, here? Time for a system reboot. And if that fails, it's time to close my door for a bit of a lie-down. What with swirling stress, minor annoyances, and the shifting weather, mamma's got a serious headache coming on.

I would like a cocktail, please.

Update: Apparently, the new Nikon camera, that worked fine with my computer for over a week, has decided it doesn't want to play nice anymore and insists on drivers, which I cannot install, because I am not an administrator on this computer.

The fact that this is a micro example of what is going on in a macro level at my job today would be funny if it wasn't so damned irritating.

I still haven't a clue what the fuck is going on with the MP3 ripping, but at least now the thing plays.

Still with the cocktail asking.

I have needed a margariat or 5 for a month and keep getting side tracked. I feel your pain and hope the headache passes quickly.

Oh jeez. I hope the job stuff has *nothing* to do with my committee situation, but I fear that's not the case. I'm so sorry.

Thank you! The headache is fading, and in fifteen minutes I can lie down for a nap, so things are most certainly looking up!

Piffle, darling. Piffle and hugs.

[indigodreamer.livejournal.com]

Hugs back. Thanks.

Plus, plus it's like gorgeous outside, right? I so want to just take the rest of the week off work.

OH GOD AND HOW.

Cocktail

I am off work today and could stop by with something. Just kidding, of course. Sort of...

Unfortunately, I made a resolution today: No hard liquor until May, and wine only on Fridays and Saturdays. I wanna shed some body fat now that warmer weather is coming. So, booze = gone.

That said, I am looking forward to my wine this weekend big time.

Me, too.

Whee I work security is so high that if you plug something writable into the USB, it will overwrite everything and leave you garbage,
