It's a good thing I don't date anymore

[muck_a_luck]

LJ incident really shook me up yesterday. (not the Husband thing. Another thing.) And Uisgich off being busy today. Plus I'm hiding from my buddy list. And Dork_Elf's AIM user name keeps logging on and off about once every 10 minutes or so, which is driving me so crazy I've actually considered blocking her (but didn't because that seems just wrong).

Feeling alienated.

Will try to channel that into actually getting work done.

Though that's not really fair. I'm getting all sorts of stupid stuff done. I just need two whole free days to finish the client billing and push it out the door and I'm dreading that it's not going to be done at the end of the day on Friday because I have too much other client work to get done.

At least I pacified the muses this morning.

Though that meant skipping my yoga. Which also has me feeling sulky. And the problems I had with FrontPage last night mean that I *still* owe 8 hours of homework for the week, and it's not my fault. Which means I won't be doing any yoga anytime soon, because I want this home work cleared out and not hanging over my head.

To top it off, have returned to serious calorie counting this week, and I think it is making me hunger!crabby.

Blech.

Not exactly sure what you're referring to and hoping that I didn't cause any angst - can't think how I would have but you never know.

I did mean to swim tonight but setting this up has taken longer than I thought - well setting it up and playing with it and generally being juvenille!

No! Not you! :)

You have a new toy! Of course you must play! You can get into *so* much trouble with that thing!

High resolution pics - oh my god! I could never understand what all the fuss was about but wow!

Will get the DVD player to work in a minute if it kills me - I have a dts music disc which is supposed to play on dvd players and won't.

Urgh. Wish I had some insight to offer, but all that stuff is like stumbling in the dark for me.

Don't worry, I will moan to you instead about our terrible secretary problems - we have two between four of us to help out with admin and stuff, our two good ones left end of November and we got two new girls, they are still typing stuff that was dictated on 20 December. I 've done everything myself this week and we worked out today that they had only done three tapes between them!
Paralegal is incensed as she used to be a legal secretary and completley read the riot act - so the next chapter awaits!

Yikes! Pretty poor performance!

Staff turnover is a bad, bad thing.

Equity partners (and I'm not one I'm salaried) won't pay enough to keep anyone - there is a bit of a salaried partner revolt at the moment - not sure why they want us as they have decided not to increase the number of equity partners and we are getting to an age where borrowing to buy in will be pointless as there won't be enough time to make the money back!

Well, as you are going to be a judge soon... :p

Still, there does come a time when you have to decide if it's time to look for something better...

Judge will be part time to start if I get it- which is by no means certain. Anyway - keep going for now, that's all you can do in moody January when everyone feels like they are getting nowhere and you really do have to knuckle down to it or it all goes tits up! - I have this thing about January getting out of control, it's kind of a theme!

December is my to-hell-in-a-handbasket month. In January I go, "Whoa, what happened?!" and become example of hard work and efficiency. Dealign with fish files right and left!

That's my January theme that you have to be hyper efficient or else there is trouble!
