Just a lame and pathetic excuse for non-productivity.




I have a job where I'm the first line of blame when something goes wrong. The last two weeks something has begun to go very wrong with one particular project. It was not in my control in the first place, and the other side in this little waltz was apparently lying to me with wonderful consistency from the beginning, but it all lit up and exploded on Monday. The past three days have been... stressful. To the point that I am struggling just to get to work, and have given serious thought to just running away from home.

But since no one else would feed my critters, I have to stay and deal with it. And wonder why in the world I ever wanted to grow up...

Stuff *is* getting written, but slowly and with much hesitation and dis-satisfaction, which leads to a whole lot of rewrites and edits. And screaming; lots of angry and hysterical shrieking going on. I'm surprised the neighbors don't call the sheriff. The critters have taken to hiding behind the furniture and staring at me.

The next partlet of BFB is being particularly difficult because it's not something I'm comfortable with in the first place. On the other hand, several ii kibarashi are whining and grabbing at my sleeves, and I just may slap them up, even though they are not part of this part.

I dunno what to do right now... I'm exhausted; my company is probably going to be suing someone over this mess, and it all comes down to my word against theirs, because everything was done over the phone. We lost a shitpot full of money and everyone is just... angry.

I want a hug so bad, I would almost be glad to see my ex.

Anyway, that's why there is still no new Banshee. But I'm working on it. ^_^;

Silly hug of dubiousness is kinda on it's way. UPS says it might actually get there tomorrow. Till then... *HUGS*
I hate crap where it ends up coming down to who said what. Makes you want to tape every damn phone call you make. ~_~
Just stay firm and ooze indignation. Karma will get the assholes who were lying.

I forgot to remind kid to listen for the door... Better call him now. ^__^

Oh, believe me, my note-taking has gone up exponentially, as of Tuesday. And now every damn project has its own little file on MY desk. And if I could tape the calls, I would. >.

I've been having fun tracking it through the UPS web site all day. Says its in town, on the truck... ^___^
Remember... you can't laugh...

Too bad we can't do everything through e-mail where we have a nice little electronic trail... ~_~

That's why I love using email. I have my paper trail right there. I hate phones... >.

Rather than resort to exes, I, a total stranger internet commenter from SoCal, will be more than happy to come give you one. Noone should have to resort to exes- unless your name is Xavier. (Baaad pun.)

Virtual pocky for you. Lots of pocky. And those little weird panda cookies too.

Hang in there. *hugs*

Oh... *snerk!* That happens to be the name of my brother's squeeze...^___^ But I don't think he'd want to hug me...!

Panda cookies...? Oh, golly; have I missed something?

You have not seen the happy panda cookies? They are next to the pocky at my local Winco. Crispy outside, fudgy middles. Not pocky, but pretty yummy.

It wouldn't be so horrible if I wasn't drowning in lies on all sides... I am apparently too Wufei-like to work in business....

So... how's it going? Anybody you need smacked?

Several, actually. >.<

...but I think I can control the urge to smack, at least for today...

Thanks...

Well,it IS Friday. Though... I can send some hamsters after 'em, if you want. Bite them in the ankles. >_> The hamsters kinda like doing it. They will follow people around and mock them, too, for just a small increase in their cashew supply. Complete with props and costumes. One of them has been following our office sweet-young-thing around all afternoon in a pair of low-ride pants. <_< Sometimes it's just hard not to laugh...
