Some Clearing Up.

Ok, yesterday.

It was a good day all around, could have used some lunch and an extra hour of sleep, but over all it was good.

I had to show up to work an hour early because my boss decided to close the LRC and hour early. So that if I wanted to, I could have gone to the staff Christmas party. I didn't. If I had known for sure earlier, I could have told him not to bother with the early close time, and I could have gone by the nurse who sent me an e-mail saying she had a virus and needed help. I tried to wake up a bit earlier to try and get to her place before I headed to work, but you know me and waking up. By the time I was ready to leave I had like 30 mins before I had to be at work.

I was lucky enough to catch a bus right off, but it stopped for like 15 mins at a gas station. So I just went right to work. As I got to work, I was pulled off by a teacher to help with some pictures. That took 20 mins. I had to even show the concept of creating shortcuts and a few other things I didn't expect. Then I went back to the admin off to see the lady I was making the power point with. Got down stairs and did the new stuff to the power point, then fiddled with the website to update a few things.

Then my boss got all happy about posting some information on our site about our "laptop program". Turns out to be two pages. One was for FAQ's that the school had either already come up with, or actually asked. The next one which I haven't done yet is suppose to contain information on the actual program.

Then I helped to teach another teacher how use photo shop. Hence my question yesterday. I'll have to work on that one today. I had stuff to do here and there to keep me busy, but for the last like 4 or so hours, I felt like I was the only one there. Every time someone showed up or called for someone else, I was the only one there. And that happened a lot. At one point I forgot what time it was and thought that it was already 4:30 and it was just 1:20pm. I hate being up so early.

AM joined me for the last 30 mins of my shift. We hung out for like another 20 or so mins, I was in no rush to leave, I had nowhere to go. Then AM walked me up to the street, we talked, and I actually caught a bus from the wrong side of the street.

I had huge munches when I got home. That would happen if you haven't eaten for over 8 hours. I don't even remember if I had breakfast of not.

Then I came home to my sister who said that my cousin was coming to spend the night since they(students) were having their last seventh semester sale today.

Now I'm off to get ready for work now. Currently this place is a little mad house. Jhodie, Nika, Pearl, Ruth (over night cousin), Muffet (Pearl's sister), Muffet's baby girl, Verey, Ruth's little boy, and me all in here at once. The kids almost out number the adults. Then my uncle showed up. Oh, I think Pearl's boyfriend was in her bedroom too.

I'm off to the shower. I may got to work on time today. :)

long day, web page editing and a small black out.

That was my day.

I would say more, but my cousin is staying over for the night, and wants to play with my games.

So I'll catch up with you tomorrow.

Oh.. wallpaper.

How do you make and arrow in any version of Photo Shop?

That is a question I have to find the answer to before I go home.

Oh, I may be going to a party, or I may not. It's starting to look like a no. I don't have a ticket on me. I can always try and crash the party, but I don't think it's worth crashing.

Well got to go. Still working.

My Monday Was A Monday.

Ok, last night my sister did a rather nice job on my hair. I got up in decent time.

After no knowing to what I had to wear, to what to wanted to wear, and what I could wear, I did a calm version of NY Black. Shiny black shirt, with black and not so shiny skirt, both stretchy, and I wore one of my new shirts open.

I thought I looked really good, and I had the hanging around neck ID tag and everything. I caught a bus more on less on time. I got to work in good time too. I hated having to show my ID. But I hope that after a week or so, I won't have to. I wouldn't mind having to wear it just to keep anything from being said, but I don't want to show it to get in. I haven't had to show my ID to get in anywhere since I was in high school. And that ID was to get into school. I didn't go bar hopping until I was 22.

ok. Got to work to a strange sight. I think they were testing out Dr. Shocky's exam program. Either which way, I didn't make it to my desk. I was pointed to in Dr. Smith's direction. I spent and hour with him. Then he more or less requested time for me to show him some stuff, and gave me something to try and figure out. After working on that for a bit, I checked my mail, posted and announcement, cleaned up another one. Tried to contact a teacher, didn't get him. Then I was in the middle of making my profile smaller by burning some stuff to disks, when I was pulled away for a staff meeting. Our boss wanted to have meetings with us every two weeks, to keep everyone up to speed. Well we got our little run down today.

After that I got a few more things done. I got water from the bathroom again. I covered the desk from 6 till 7pm then I left about 15 later.

I got here in good time. I got a lift right from school. Lucky me. Oh, I might have to go to staff Christmas party this Friday. I don't want to. But I might have to go.

I was suppose to tell my sister tonight, but I forgot. I took Nika out to ride her bike tonight. She did well. She didn't fall either, but she did ride into a telephone booth. She's fine.

I had a real home cooked meal tonight. Dumpling, boiled green banana, boiled sweet potato, and stewed turkey wings with carrots and potatoes. :) Nice.

Ok... I've caught up on my blogs, I can go to bed now. Not happy that I missed CSI:NY, but I was watching another recent movie that I haven't seen yet. At least I got to see the current Charmed ep. :)

Nighty Night.

Yesterday.... Yesterday... What did I do yesterday?

Ah!.. I succeeded in staying in bed, but longer than I wanted. Actually I'm not sure if that was Monday or.. wait, it couldn't have been Monday, we went shopping. Actually.. forget it.

I didn't really do anything, or get out of my room until 12 or 1:30pm. Would have been nice if I wasn't in there all by my self. But he isn't here.

Well when I finally crawled out of my room, my sister had me call up this girl/student who she already talked to about getting some things. I don't know why she had me call her for. I don't know what to talk to her about. I ended up giving the phone to her to let her talk.

Ended up going by her house at 4:30. Well at least we tried. We went and got Nika from school, came back, changed and tried to catch a bus. It took us like 15 mins, and 8 buses later before we got one that had room for the three of us.

We got there like 10 till 5. But my sister got the bargains she was looking for, and I got some noodle soups. :) With cheap chopsticks. :) Then we had to haul all that stuff back. Three buses went right by us, and Jhodie didn't believe it. But I told her that is what they do me when I'm waiting for a lift. Then Verey's father went driving by us in the wrong direction. He stops, drives backward, and crosses lanes to stop in front of Jhodie. He was a wreck waiting to happen. Then at that same time, a guy from work, with a nice big car came by, and I got him to give us a ride home.

He seemed a bit odd, but then he had girl in the car. At the end, I just thought that he didn't like mixing his private life with his work one. Anyway, my sister got almost a full box of Arm & Hammer detergent, a lot of shampoo and conditioner, and some ginger lotion. I got like 17 noodle soups and next paycheck we got three bags of veggie burgers that would have cost us at least $90. We are paying $53 for them.

That night we ate Chinese food. :) With cheap chopsticks. Then around 10pm me and my sister watched the last Lord of the Rings movie. We hadn't seen it yet. Then we watched. Master and Commander. Another movie that I hadn't seen yet and she combed my hair too.

Got to bed later than I would have liked. I looked up at the clock and shook my head. It was after 3am. Grief.

Then I went to bed. Oh.. I think Julia Roberts had her babies today. Twins I know. They were way early, but they said that everyone was ok. Julia, a mother. Hum. Oh, and that Ken guy from jeopardy, he finally lost to someone. At least he scored 2 and a half million.
