I slept in late today! Well, late for me (which was about 11am). Then no coffee, so that kind of sucks. I hope my postings in PC were at least a little bit coherant. I think that the eight hour days have finally caught up with me. I think it is something that will just take a bit of getting used to.
My grandmother is coming to visit (well, I guess they are already here, but I won't see them until Saturday). She is really excited about me having a new job. She is always saying how I need to be working in someplace that lets me be creative. Which isn't something I really get at New Job, yet. I am sure that there are other things that I could move into that would let me do some interesting stuff. And I have (in the new slang of WD) a 'metric buttload' of hobbies.
I am going to get back to writing on my breaks and at lunch. Visitng and chatting with folks is fun, but I am starting to feel like I have been neglecting everything. I am also going to start taking a book to read so that if I don't feel like writing, I at least have something to do other than play online poker (which is great, but gets a little boring after a while ... I am *so* not an addicitive personality - LOL).
Last night we learned about the most boring tool we will ever use. One that is left over from the very beginning of the company. It is a DOS program that prints out huge text file reports (and when I say huge, I am talking about the smallest scrollbar that windows will give you). Holy crap, is that ever an eyestrain! I really hope to never be in a position where I need to do that very frequently.
As I type this, I just got another email through my website *cringe*. I guess I should go and answer the ones I have been putting off forever. Anyway, still loving the job ... still very confident and thrilled that I will be doing something that is a little more mentally stimulating. It gets old when you are basically just a face for people to yell at.
