gigamatic

i've been having a hell of a time this past few weeks.

i'm fighting a cold.
i'm fighting deadlines at work.
i'm fighting stupidity on several levels at work.
i'm fighting my sanity.

today, i missed a deadline. again.

i was also given the information about why we were bending to a particularly evil client's wishes to continue service (for 6 months!) when we quit providing service to everyone else: because we were asskissing to try and get some of their other business.

i was also given a "new logo" for our department, made with truetype fonts, in Microsoft Powerpoint using WORDART. FUCKING WORD ART. And I had to use it in several different documents.

And then, I'm told that some folks who don't know the first thing about PDFs are trying to edit them, but they're having trouble. Umm. I told you you wouldnt be able to do more than the basic spelling/word replacement.

tonight, one of my dutch ovens' enamel came off all over one of my pieces of roast.

and, i got auction-sniped on a set of dr. who videos with the first few episodes, ever.

i've been an asshole the past couple weeks. i'm trying to not be, but it's REALLY hard.
