  • One of the nicer aspects of my job is that Mr. S isn't in the office much. I have to deal with the constant phone calls, but that's a much better scenario than when he's actually in the office. Yesterday he spent ab…

  • Oh, what a day. More on it later. I've been in and out of a funk the last few days. It started on Saturday when I lost a tennis match I should have won. For some reason, it really got me down. And then I lost again …

  • (Please still give me music suggestions on the next post down) Happy Birthday It was Mr. S's birthday recently. The first year I worked for him, I bought him a really lovely coffee table book about a hobby of h…

  • I bought an iTunes card today with part of my Amazon.com birthday loot. I haven't downloaded too many songs, ever--like maybe 10, because I don't have an iPod and doubt I'll be getting one. But now I understand the be…

  • I don't have much to say today. I worked 8 1/2 hours yesterday (from home) and am about to dig in or at least another 8. At least when I'm at home I can listen to music or watch sports or something. Still, it sucks to…

  • Oh, the things I would like to tell you all! It would be too specific, too identifiable, but suffice it to say I'm still working with The Shrew and she has revealed herself to be the most horrible, racist, elitist, ug…

  • Too busy to write an entry now. Mr. S and The Shrew have me working every waking moment, it seems. For those of you who said I should just not do anything for her anymore, nothing would please me more. But a lot o…

  • I was going to do another edition of Things That Are Pissing Me Off. I had a list of about a million things, like former neighbors from hell, incompetent home builders, teenagers who download 44 songs from iTunes (44!) w…
