thank goodness. i can breathe for the next day and a half, because lawn jockey man is away on the east coast.

this morning was a whirlwind of activity. i was able to fix the antiquated fax machine, copy and collate 6 sets of 11x17 drawings for captain, find a long lost schoolmate for Gucci (i haven't settled on a nickname for him yet, but he's a designer, and oh-so-cool), find batteries for our archaic photographing devices (a more modern relative would be the "camera"), request the copy man to come and look at our outdated machine, make an espresso drink, and restock all of the items in the supply area, in two hours flat. ha. go me.

however, during this flurry, my assistant and i were also subjected to a lecture by our beloved lawn jockey man...

tape dispensers.

we apparently slipped up, by allowing the wrong kinds of scotch tape to end up in the color-coded dispensers. the one with the blue "magic tape" box-top taped onto its side, is supposed to house the tape with the blue plastic core. duh. who gives a damn ! ...is what i'd like to say. but that is just too much energy to spare on lawn jockey man. i nodded somewhat, but my neck hurt, so i just walked away from him in mid-lecture.

my unfortunate assistant was cornered into the lecture for another 5 minutes or so. for...tape. all about tape. poor thing. i will have to buy her lunch some day.

why is finding a decent job, so incredibly difficult these days? i have religiously clicked on and searched through every jobsite there is, during every feigned working moment here. well. yes, there may be similar jobs out there to this, but i'd like to leave this joint for a position that will utilize my talents other than my superfast collating skills. is that too much to ask for? job market says...ding ding ding... of course !! [sigh]

to top my day off...i need to contest my mci local toll charges...which i will have to gripe about later.

but on a positive note, win gave me a sony clie for our anniversary ! ...just what i'd been drooling over for the past couple of months ! love it love it love it.

now...back to my jobhunting...
