Time to rip some hair out
10.19.06 (3:28 pm)   [edit]

But first, I must celebrate my new tires. I got some GoodYear Assurance TripleTred. I think I will really like them, but I'll have to see how they fare over the next little while.

But right now I'm getting spread a little thin, at work and for the upcoming Vancouver Asian Film Fest. I am regretting I volunteered (and to be a group leader, no less!). I need to commit more time to it than I have right now, and the timing is just off. I also need to find a baby shower gift today and an engagement party gift asap and order a cake for the party.

I've always hated taking photos at my work events. I hate my slowass camera. And transferring everything from my own computer to work is a big pain. I take like 50 photos every time and each is at least 1 MB. I am not going to email them all. And resizing is just as big of a pain. And before my last day, I will gather the hundreds of photos I've taken. What I hate most is that we HAVE a company digital camera. Someone should USE it.

And Hairy Butt Boy is on my nerves right now, too. I really don't want to call him dumb, but he is not the brightest bulb in the bunch.

I told him my last day of work at my current company is on Halloween. Does it not imply I am working on Halloween and am at my current employer until then?

"Oh! This means people at [my company] won't see you in your Halloween costume! I guess you could wear your costume at your new place."

And then today...

"Your last day is tomorrow, right?"
"No."
"I thought you start your job next week."
(I just realised I told him that I do start it next week. Oops.)
"So you'r technically on vacation until the 31st?"

I think I am crankier than usual because I was just mentoring the newbie. He doesn't catch on very quickly, and watching people use computers has always been painful for me. And it frustrates me that he doesn't try to figure things on his own before asking me. For example, he had to add a new form to a diagram. He could not remember the name of the form, so he asked me. I have never even worked on what he's doing and I could tell him. Like come on...Look it up yourself.

Mr. Nick is always ready for sleep. It worries me how low-energy he can be sometimes!!

The programs for the VAFF should be online now, too. I saw the printed books, and they look great! This year's festival seems pretty good! www[dot]vaff[dot]org

Even though you're not going to ask how Hairy Butt Boy got his nickname, I'll tell you anyway *L* I've never seen his butt but I am assuming it's smooth since he made such a big deal about how gross he thought hairy butts were!!

Selective low-energy can be good sometimes, especially on Sunday afternoons :)
