Batteries not included, indeed

June 16th, 2008, by The Goddess

Not only is my laptop flashing the “low battery” signal to me, but this is on top of the fact that my Bullet, well, bit it this weekend. I think it was my audacity of using low-grade IKEA batteries in it.

Back to the toilet-less, coffee-less office to recharge. …



Whiskey. Tango. Foxtrot.

After four gloriously stress- and drama-free days, today:

1. I put on high heels
2. And a skirt
3. And went into the office
4. Where there is no a/c
5. Or running water
6. Which means no coffee
7. But at least I don’t have to pee
8. ‘Cause I couldn’t flush it anyway
9. I walked in to 500 missed e-mails
10. 350 of which are actionable
11. I have two major projects due
12. Which I am going to have to do remotely
13. But I don’t know how to use the remote system
14. Nor have I bothered fixing my wireless network at home
15. But I need the software I have on this machine
16. So I will have to go in search of free Wi-Fi
17. In heels
18. And a skirt
19. But it sure beats having meetings
20. And I’ll be able to completely concentrate on my 2 projects!
