Wild meara ahead? Yaaaas! I support that!!

Feel ok so far today. If it reoccurs this afternoon though, I'm going to have to look into a doctor appointment or something!

I'm irked my company website doesn't say anything about our Mexico location or how the employees are doing. One of them emailed me today all "hey, sorry, I've requested those things for you but it's a little crazy here" and I was like "oh shit that's right, y'all are in Mexico City!"

First half day of work has been... overwhelming. Just because of the sheer number of systems they use that i have to get set up on. An IT person asked me if I was set up for something and I couldn't remember!

But besides that, everyone is nice and the work looks interesting and the company is expanding rapidly (which is a good sign for my future there).

Was sad that I can't use a GUI for Postgres. I'm rusty on the command line usage of Postgres (one guy gave me a cheat sheet) and I'll have to relearn vim, which I haven't used in over 22 years.

So overall the job is... good.

Oh, man, meara. Yeah, you'd think there'd be a statement or something. Hopes and prayers at least.

Sounds exciting tommyrot! Hope the whelm settles down as you settle in.

I'm spending Rosh Hashanah cleaning out the garage - it needs doing and seems appropriately new-year-ish. Was taking a break on the patio, noticed the umbrella out there us full if holes. Perfect for Sukkot, I think to myself. Then I notice the wasp nest in an upper fold. Nope! Not perfect for anything!

Corporate overwatch strikes again. Web use on our computers has been locked down for years, but our company phones had no such restrictions. Workplace wireless is locked down to all but company electronics, so we all used work phones to do online stuff all day. As of today, YouTube does not work. That includes YouTube videos embedded in articles. We are now holding our breath to see if Facebook gets blocked.

Timelies all!

I bought a new purse because my everyday purse was falling apart.(bits of the faux leather exterior fell off and the lining in one of the pockets ripped.) Last weekend I thought I lost my phone(only three months after I replaced one I had lost) until Gary called my number and we could hear it ringing in my purse. Turned out to have gone through the rip in the lining and ended up at the bottom of the purse.

The new purse arrived today so I started to clear out the old one. As I was clearing it out, I noticed a lump at the bottom. Reached in through the lining to find...the phone I lost three months ago. How did I not notice it before? Sheesh.

Ha! Sorry to chuckle, Sheryl, I can see me doing that so easily.

So last night I went to a movie and decided to get some butterfinger candies on impulse. Sat down and first bite my shiny gold bling crown came off. It isn't bothering me at all, but I am wondering about trying the temporary crown cement stuff they sell OTC, or if I should just wait until I get back to FL and see a dentist. It is the furthest back molar so not annoying.

Laura, in your shoes I'd have the dentist look at it rather than jury-rig a temp solution and be worrying about when the crown would pop off again.

Ugh. I know an 8:30am meeting isn't that early, but my flight lands late tonight and I don't wanna get up and be coherent before 9 tomorrow morning.
