Learning Experiences From 2009...That Make Me Happy.

I remembered the values of my Jewish heritage.

I remembered the importance of comfort food (and that a few extra pounds are ok).

Persistence is NOT futile - the squeaky wheel gets the grease! (My little sister called me....for the first time in over 10 years...NOT on Christmas, but early, on Christmas Eve!)

I got my power back!

I realized that my 'direct and down to Earth' personality is invaluable, and not as common as some might think.

Most importantly, I realized that every day, every week, every month, every year....is a pristine chance for a brand new start.

Happy New Year, Everyone!!!!!!

HAPPY HOLIDAYS EVERYONE!!!

At Long Last!!!

Finally!! The dreaded torture instruments have been removed from my teeth! I am so happy!!!! I'm getting my teeth cleaned first thing tomorrow morning at 7!

They are gorgeous, by the way!!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!!

Happy Birthday to Me!!

I just love having ALL of my family, and 50% of my friends, forget me on my birthday! The same people whom I call religiously every year on their birthday and at Christmas. Gosh, it just leaves me feeling all warm and fuzzy inside!


Well, here's to you.

PISS OFF!

Have I Told You Lately How Much You PISS ME OFF!?

So the new IT lady at work did some kind of update to the network last night, and this morning several people had all their settings changed on their PC's, and now programs on the network are also malfunctioning. I realize that the rest of us average folks are dumb and IT people are all brilliant geniuses, but I still think if I have shut my PC down 4 times and restarted it (per the IT person's insistence) and am still experiencing the SAME problem, shutting it down YET again IS NOT GOING TO FIX THE PROBLEM. And telling me after I have shut my PC down and restarted it for the FIFTH TIME (apparently IT has to watch you do this in order to believe it was actually done) that she doesn't know what the problem is, to call the programmer, only makes HER look stupid, not me, despite her condescending, arrogant tone.

So in short, IT lady..

SUCK IT!!!!

And did I mention that "Shut down your PC and restart it and if that doesn't work do it two more times" is her standard response to ANY question asked by ANYONE here??? And that I am only ONE person on a list of about TEN people who have had network, PC, and program issues today??

PS
And I don't think talking to everyone like they are mentally challenged children is a very good way to start out a new job. But hey, that's just me. Maybe other people LIKE being talked to like they are naughty pets or stupid children.
