Oh, how I am sooooo glad to be finally on summer vacation.
I spent the day at book club on the lovely Belleisle. I love our Belleisle book club meeting. It’s always so relaxing. It was sunny, and now I’m sunburned, but I don’t even mind.
It’s so awesome. School’s out. I’m so ready for summer.
Today, I did a whole lotta laundry. I still have a lot to do, but I have accomplished much. I also made an utterly delicious minipizza. I have some pita bread to use up, so I used that as the base - purchased sauce, a slow-carmelized vidalia onion and chevre mozzarella. Sprinkle a few healthy shakes of regular ol’ dried oregano on that and it’s awesome. So simple, and tasty on a wet, rainy June day.
Wondering what to make. I am in the mood to cook, I just don’t know what I want to make. :/ It’s not like I can’t cook - I’m just stuck with some indecision here.
My work computer has gotten “quirky”. Just in time to NOT be able to get to the Graduation Programme to the printers. OMG it was an insane morning. And then, once that was done and I physically ran the programme to the printers TWICE, then I had to break down the graduation seating list AND print all the diplomas. All today.
I lost 2 hours of that time trying to figure out why my computer was randomly inserting spaces into the scholarships page of the programme. Let me tell you, there is no answer to that. No spaces on the screen, no spaces in the codes, but spaces every time you try to print. BRUTAL. At length, when it was evident nothing could be done in Word to correct the issue, I finally figured out a last gasp solution - save it to the Mac (which I conveniently had brought to work) and create a PDF. Which, of course, I couldn’t do on the PC (see previous “quirky” comment). All’s well that ends well though.
So, anyway, work is done. For now. There is going to be much to do tomorrow.
All this, plus I had to do, you know, my job. Which at the end of the year is very busy. I’m really looking forward to the break - as if I wasn’t before.
My marks are in.
Squee! Summer is just around the corner!!!
I need noise in order to be able to concentrate. My iTunes didn’t work till today, and I usually go with movies anyway. So, here are the movies I’ve “watched” this weekend:
Almost there. My PS3 has gotten a workout! For awhile it looked like it would be Hugo Weaving Weekend, but then I went on an Indy kick. I don’t have the 4th one, though, which is fine by me, because it wasn’t very good.
OK, I’m almost done, and the tank just went over the cliff. Enough stalling. Let’s see if I can wrap this up by the time they destroy Petra.
Two days. I can do this, I know I can.
*gritting teeth, nose to grindstone, &c*
God, I wish I was better at math.
It’s hard when you break up with somebody and you are still friends in a social media format. You get a lot of information, and you don’t really know how to process it.
So, as I am stressed out the wazoo with everything (it being June and all), I decided to remove my ex from my social media accounts. It was really difficult, but I felt it was the right choice… until I did it. And then I had huge second thoughts.
Because, yes, it’s my ex. But it’s also my friend. And we all keep in touch, our gang, by social media. It’s kept friendships going when people have moved away. It really bugged me to not be in touch with a friend. Even though that friend happens to also be my ex. What is the proper netiquette in such a situation? How do you mediate your public life with your private one? I can’t be the only one to have faced this dilemma.
Oh yeah, I’m totally motivated, if by “motivated” you mean “reading up on the Mac keynote announcements and dreaming of a new MacBook instead of doing the marking I need to get done.”
Sigh.
I must see Rock of Ages, the musical. It is full of EPIC WIN and big hair. ROCK ON.
