Hello, Internet and 3D friends! How are you doing? I miss you all. I feel like I'm never on LJ at all any more. Trust me when I say that I'm reading your LJs, I'm just really out of the loop when it comes to commenting. So congratulations to some of you, I'm really jealous of others of you who went to Comic Con, I'm sorry some of you are having/have had really bad days, and I hope those of you who are sick are feeling better.
I am actually feeling better. I'm none too pleased with my new doctor, who kept me waiting for 45 minutes to see me for less than 5. According to her, I do not have a sinus infection, but just a really bad cold. Hmmm, the last time I checked, you don't cough up red, yellow, green, or orange when you have a cold. You also don't run a fever for two days, or almost lose your voice entirely. When she told me that, I replied "You are going to give me some antibiotics, aren't you?" For real, bitch, gimme some drugs. Which she did. I'm on day 2 of a 5-day pack. The horrible terrible pain in my left cheek and upper jaw is starting to go away, so that's a plus. Hopefully I'll be back to normal soon.
Work is driving me CRAZY today. OMG. Someone needs to tell the fucking copywriters that when they proof our work, they DO NOT get to make calls on how we do our design. It wouldn't bother me as much if they weren't so damn smug about it. Also, we're about a week behind right now. Stop sending files back for another round of review if all you're making us do is bottom-align the footer with the page number instead of center aligning it. It's literally ONE cursor stroke down. LET IT GO. We need to get this shit out the door, people. What don't you understand about that? Gah. Everyone in my department is ready to snap, I swear. I'm so glad I only have six days there. I mean, I enjoy the work, and I like the people I'm working with directly, but these copywriters need to LAY OFF.
Aaaaaaaaaand done!
Oh! So next week I'm taking a day off work to go see
yakgirl. Yay! Her husband is at a conference in Michigan, and so she's going to be at our parents' house with her kids. The Scientist and I are driving up there after work and will spend the next day playing hooky with them. I am very much looking forward to seeing them, as I only get to see them about twice a year. This will make it three times for 2008 (the wedding, this, and again at Christmas). I hate that she lives so far away. I'd love to have her just come over and hang at my place, and I'd love to be able to see her kids grow up more, and have them get to know me better. But hey, that's life. At least I'll get to see them a little bit.
Project Runway in 15 minutes! I missed tonight's episode because I stayed late at work today, and then picked up dinner to take to the Scientist. He's pulling another double at the theater, so we had a "date" of eating take-out in the manager's office.
Oh, I applied for a new name via the Social Security office. Within 10 days, I'll get my new card and will officially go from being "eep" to being "eee." Woo!
Anyway, that's really about all I got. How are all of you?
