I had my dentist appointment, or rather, my two back-to-back appointments this morning in Evanston. They found a cavity so I had that filled along with the repair to the other tooth that lost its filling. I was done with plenty of time to catch the 10:00 train from Evanston to Highland Park so I'd be in time for an 11:00 conference call. Except there is no 10:00 train.

So I had to take a CTA train home to get my car so I could drive to Highland park. And on my way home I realized I could have taken a bus to Highland Park instead. Oh well--I'm here now.

I had some marvellous/horrible Misha Collins-centric nightmares last night. Bug vomiting and child endangerment and becoming the most hated person in LA.

Yuck.

I dreamed Hil and I were in a class working on some calculus problems. Except I hadn't done the reading or something and I couldn't remember the calc classes I took 30 years ago so Hil ended up dong all the problems.

Sorry Hil.

Survived my first 3 Uber trips. Not a job if you don't like talking to people. I may be able to make this work.

It's a good thing I am going on vacation for the rest of this test/build cycle because I'm pretty sure I would have strangled some of my coworkers before the end of it. Show some….initiative. Imagination. Do your fucking job.

Yay! I was anxious to hear how it went.

It's much more relaxing to drive in Boston when you don't have to worry about parking!

Now I have to run off to high school to tutor!

Good one, Theo!

Somehow in the last hour, I convinced myself it was Friday, and then had a very rude awakening! Ah well. Still only a few working days before Thanksgiving.

It is my friday!

And dear god, I'm talking a coworker through rightclicking in office excel. Ferfuckssake, she's the one on a pc for the past couple of decades, she doesn't know that??

It's horrifying how many simple things people who work on computers every day don't know. Of course, if they don't need them, there's no reason to know these functions, but they shouldn't act all offended when we try to explain things to them. I've wasted minutes on people who refuse to say they don't know what I mean by right-clicking or drag-and-drop.
