Annoying People

Ok,

So I sit next to a girl named Angie. She's awesome and I have a lot of fun working with her. I just can't stand this guy that comes over to talk to her at least once a day, and it's usually two times. He spends all of his time telling her what she should be doing with her life and I just want to kick him in the nuts every time I hear his voice. I'm usually very conscious about trying to be tolerant of people and not judge them on stupid things like an annoying voice and things like that, but I can't help it with this guy. He's already annoying because of his " I know more than you" attitude and then he's got an annoying voice to go with that. One day I thought I was going to kill him because he was giving Angie a hard time about an event that she put together. I guess she was completely wrong on the type of food that she had there because not everyone likes lasagna and that even though there was a vegetarian version that it wasn't enough because some people don't like pasta and then the only thing that they could eat was the salad. I guess I just didn't know that there were so many things to think about when coordinating a meal for that many people, but he honestly didn't give her any slack. I guess this guy is the main person in charge of the renovation that we're doing here at DRS. We're actually starting to see more visual improvements, but I still don't think there is any way that they are going to make their deadline on all of this, and there's no what that there is going to be enough room. The only way there is going to be enough room is if they get rid of people, and they claim that they aren't going to do that. I think that's a bunch of bull shit.

So anyway, things at work are going alright aside from that guy. I had so much stuff to do this morning that I didn't even check my yahoo e-mail until 11!! Most of the time I hit 8:30 and I'm out of things to do already and on the web goofing around. It was a nice change of pace, time really flew by because I had things to keep me busy that were somewhat using my brain. That's my other problem besides not having enough work. Most of the time when I get work it's something so mindless that it just makes the day go by even slower. I've learned a little bit more though, so now I'm getting into better tasks that actually make me think and analyze things. I should really be working on one of things right now but that's alright.

I'm getting a little excited for going to see Batman tonight. I know that I'm going to be dead tired tomorrow, but that's what Midnight showings of movies do to you. I'm going to have to get up early to take Steve to work and then I'll probably go back home and sleep some more before I really get up and go over to MATC to schedule my classes for the fall. I really hope that things work out well for that and that I"ll have time to go to work as well. I don't know if I was to try and go to night school or not. That could be a little weird. And then i wouldn't see Steve at all. I would still have my work time though...That might be the better idea...Then Steve doesn't need to have someone else take him home. He can either drop me off at school or let me take him home and then I can take the bus back to Brown Deer Rd. I'll have to look that up.

Ok, not wasting anymore time, looking all that stuff up now...toodles.

Steve is coming home!!!

So Steve is coming home tomorrow!! I can't wait to see him and finally not spend all the time in the house alone and go to bed alone. It gets really depressing after a while. I just don't know what to do with myself half the time. I feel like I've spent the last month just cleaning.

He's going to finish up testing within the next hour and then they get the fun task of taking apart the chamber where they were doing all their testing and get the unit out of there so that they can ship it back to Milwaukee. Steve has a few things that he needs to get done tomorrow morning, but then he gets to leave for home.

There are a few things that I need to get cleaned up before he gets home tomorrow which means that I need to get them finished tonight. There's a chance he could get home around 10 tomorrow morning and I might not get up until 8. I don't want to have to scramble to get things done. That would be a nightmare. I really don't have a whole lot to do. I would like to get the rest of the boxes in the computer room looked through so that we can start shaping that area of the house to what we want. I'm not sure if Steve still wants to get a new computer or not. If I could afford a new laptop then he really wouldn't need to get a new PC.

I was going to go and look at my money situation again today. It seems that I have a little bit more money that I thought I did. That's always a good thing, but I'm not sure it's enough to spend on a computer. I just don't want to be at $10 left in my bank account while I'm trying to go to school and work at the same time. And then that $10 will go towards going through hunter's safety which I also need to get going on. I've gotten more into figuring out what I'm doing for school next year that I forgot about that whole thing.

There's no way that I'm going to get a class in before August which is when I'll really need to start focusing on getting all my shit together for school and make sure that I have enough money.

So yea, I guess that's what's going on in my head today. I'm at work trying to get stuff done, but I keep getting interrupted by e-mails from my boss asking me to do different things. He's not even in the office. I guess I shouldn't complain because I at least have things to do today. I spent all of yesterday and Thursday the week before doing absolutely nothing. And no one had anything for me to do either. I guess that's how things are going to be for a while though and I hope they don't start giving me too many things to do because then when I go to school and start working less I won't have as much time to get it all done. But at least I'll just come to work and get what I need to get done and that will be it.


Well I guess I should get a move on. I might have to bust out of here early again tonight. It's not like anyone cares. And no one's going to tattle on me because it's not like they get a whole lot of work done during the day anyway.

This is a really long post. I really need to start taking pictures of things and putting them on here. It'll be really hard though since I'm not really allowed to bring in any computer devices from outside the company. That'll start to ruin stuff and whatever. I guess I'll follow the rules. I was supposed to get an e-mail from someone from Timewarner today so that I could set up a time to get internet at our house. Ok, time to go.
