And it’s only Tuesday!

It’s been busy and hectic and frustrating yesterday and today - at work. (I say “at work” but I work mostly from home these days.)
No one’s fault, just the kind of week it is. But … the days have been grim weatherwise and today, while I woke feeling like crap, the cat (Gonzo) was in a tizzy. Normally she just sleeps but today she was pacing and howling and generally disruptive.
Clearly, the weather is about to change. Winds from the southeast are becoming winds from the west (hopefully bringing sunnier skies and warmer weather). But in the meantime …
Does this compute?
In frustration today I broke my work laptop. Yes, I actually punched it and wrecked the monitor. The help desk people were not impressed. In my defence, it’s older than Joan Rivers and the network was crapping out and I was losing work. Try working on something all morning and watching it go “poof!” as the systems take a nap.
But on a personal front (and financial affront) … I called Apple and ordered a PowerBook. I’d be thrilled except I saw what it’s going to do to my Visa and just about crapped.

I feeeeeeeel this pain. I got an iPod Nano for my birthday, got home and on an absolute high tried to download iTunes, etc. right away. Too bad my archaic Windows isn’t up to date enough to support the program!!! Dag gommit!
Oh well, there’s still wine, right?
