because I'm pretty sure this has got to be a Monday.


First, I forgot my book this morning, so I have nothing to read at lunch.

Second, I get to work and get handed another large, urgent, and stupid assignment, due by COB today.

Third, I've been clashing with the QA department over what we are and are not supposed to do.

Fourth, a good friend of mine told me that their father had to get rushed to the ER this morning. Not a heart attack, but a fair amount of aortal fibrillation (sp?), and they're putting him on blood thinners and discharging him. Oh, and even though he wasn't showing any symptoms, they did a CAT scan to see if he'd had a stroke. Why? "Precautionary." Doctor's diagnosis? "Old age."

And in general, I'm just feeling in a pissy mood.

Sorry...



We now return you to your regularly scheduled Wednesday.

Speaking of which... why do they refer to Wednesday as "Hump Day" when most people only get laid on the weekends? ::s:: (courtesy of George Carlin)

{{HUGS}} Here's hoping your evening, at least, goes better.

It's like when you're over at someone's house, and their very large dog is humping your leg, and the owner is all 'Aw, he's so friendly' and it's another half hour before you can leave and the dog's going away at your leg, sniffing your crotch and generally exhibiting the complete lack of training its owner has given it.

Fortunately, I very rarely have that problem... and when I do, I can usually "out-alpha" the dog, and he'll stop.

And if not, a quick rap on the nose and a sharp, "NO!" takes care of it. ::S::

But then, *dogs* understand about not pissing off a "bigger dog"... and the difference between being able to nip at someone's ankles, and being able to rip out their throat.

Me? Bloodthirsty?

Naaaaah...

I'm just sayin' Wednesday is like that - and unfortunately you can't out-alpha a day. Although hiding and playing sick sometimes works.
