Work and play…

Decent day at work. Got my Quality Plan done at the last minute, though couldn’t format it nicely because the networked version of Word was really fucked up. It’ll be easy to finish when I get back. I also got my time all recorded for the last several weeks. Don’t know about this ABT Workbench … Read more

Work, and reading…

I noticed that my IE Browser is not working, and thought, “This is the reason that BladeRunner validation error box is coming up blank. I tried to download IE 4.0 w/SP1 from Microsoft’s site, but they only had IE 4 w/SP2. I tried that but did not have a successful install. I asked Dewaine (reluctantly … Read more

Back to work, kittens, and soccer…

Got to work and could finally check my Broadreach e-mail. Sy’s coming today. Oh well. At least it’s not until 1:00. We worked on BRT/BRX/DOC/DTD education all afternoon.

At the desk, I asked the ladies working there if they’d heard about my note to the management. They hadn’t, but asked what it was about. We all had a good laugh … Read more

Business Trip in DC

My alarm went off at 6:00. I turned the television on. CNN was covering the storm. Wilmington was getting battered and so was Jacksonville. They checked in with their reporter in Jacksonville. He was literally not able to stand without being pushed off balance by the wind. The camera “pixilated” a couple of times because … Read more
