I don't understand people.

This job would be great if weren't for people I have to deal with.

our IT guy started sending out computer policies approved by the managers.
that put a stop to alot of people screwing with stuff and downloading viruses.

So yesterday it was gorgeous (75 and sunny). Got to break out the shorts and sandals finally. Well today I get up for class, LATE of course, throw on my shorts cuz I don't have time to switch my belt and wallet and knife out and grab my thin zip up hoodie, jump into my shoes with no socks on and run out the door. It's raining and its 35 degrees. My walk across campus to eat sucked... My feet hate me and my nose has been running all day. Bleh.

26 degrees outside with 7 1/2" of snow so far and still coming down heavy...

Did I mention it hit 80 degrees 2 days ago?

The wingspan of a 747 jet is longer than the Wright Brothers' first flight.

Nope, but I do live in my sandals about 10 months of the year

I have great empathy for you in your job..........I'm not an IT person but I know a bit about computers - been running/building them (my own, of course) since back in the "DOS" days, so, of course, I'm always getting sucked in to "fixing" things (free, of course) for folks. Really, really, really, frustrating.

Condolences,
mud

I love commercials from other countries... They're so very very different.

Well, our forecast for 67 degrees today blossomed into a beautiful 78 degree sunny day with just the slightest of breezes.

I took the top and doors off and went for a cruise with my Jeepin' buddy, Sonya the Wonder Dog. Oh, if only I were still single!

I never had a dog to cruise with before, but man, she's a CHICK MAGNET!

Everywhere I went, there were little honeys in short shorts and tank tops wanting to pet her. [Note to self: Don't go cruising with Sonya the Wonder Dog and Sunshine at the same time.]
