Today's summary

[tsukinofaerii]

Wow. Talk about a bad day. And just when I'm ready to veg out in front of the computer, LJ manages to take even that bit of "not horrible" away. I'll bullet this list of how my day went, because I could go into a rant on any one of them.

• Went to bed at 5AM, then woke up at 8AM because my grandpuppy Jace had been coughing and my Aunt thought there might be something stuck in his throat. So I packed him up and we went to the vet. Well, there wasn't anything stuck, thankfully. Instead it's an upper respritory infection. So he gets a week of pills and I get to hope it doesn't turn into doggy pneumonia. He also has a yeast infection in both ears. *SIGH* I feel like a bad puppy-grandma.
  
• I installed a smoke detector. My elbow has been killing me lately (I think it's a pinched nerve), so this involved much cursing and trying not to move in a way that would hurt worse than necessary.
  
• IT is staffed by morons. I remotely checked into our SQL server today (because I've been babying them since this damned thing with the databases started, and I'll be damned if Spring Break is going to stop me). We lost a gig of our (very limited) harddrive space within 24 hours because the guy in charge of the SQL server hardware won't do his damned job.
  
• I spent way more than I should have, between vet bill (thirty dollar blow), books at Borders (sixteen dollars after coffee for two) and the movie place going out of business sale (twenty dollars for seven dvds). Luckily, my tax refund is due in, but that really should have gone to certain short-term bills... Especially since Spring Break week isn't a paid one. Short paycheck May, here I come. Blech.
  
• I got my hair done on Monday by my staylist-to-be cousin. Tonight she's home. And my inferiority complex is in full swing. *SIGH* I'd love to have her hair/nails/body/etc... but I hate myself for wanting them. Gah, what modern life does to women.
  
• LJ has FUBAR'D again, this time by taking away the Free Accounts from new users. Just when I was starting to get some trust back, there it goes again... I think this is honestly worse than Strikethrough. At least then they were trying to cover their legal tailfeathers, no matter how stupid their method. This is jjust money-grubbing, and then trying to hide it! Worse, now they're insulting our collective and individual intelligence by saying they axed Basic because the sign-up table was too complicated.

I'll rant more on these later, but I'm tired, have almost no braincells to spare, and am possibly a bazillion comments behind in replying. Right now my newly-aquired trick-elbow is killing me, so I don't think I'll be replying to anything anytime soon.

Wait a second, If I read that correctly your NOT getting paid? Yet your still working? *confused*

On Spring Break I don't "work" officially. But we've been having some pretty serious server problems, so I remote desktop to check in and work anyways. (shrug) It's my work-given responsibility, and I don't feel comfortable letting it go for too long without a check-in, whether I'm being paid for it or not.
