Life's cruel jokes

    I'm checking in a lot, but not posting much. You can already guess........

    She's off on her latest business trip. Maybe it's for the best that we're not around each other. I've not been good. Here's a nice rundown:

    We have Caller-ID. A call came in from a pretty darn good school not far from here. When I saw the school name on Caller-ID I got all excited because I have contacts there and thought maybe they were going to offer me work. Nope. It was someone conducting a survey. I didn't appreciate that.

    I got a nasty message from that one school I work for. They have one campus in a suburb, with some very nice equipment. In downtown Chicago, however, the campus isn't set up yet, so we meet in hotel meeting rooms. That means no technology because they (the school) won't pay for it. They do allow me to check out a school projector to use with a laptop. I utilized a student's laptop, and the school's projector. This was a humanities class, so visuals were a necessity. The local campus had no problem with how I used and returned the projector, but some butthole at the main campus sent me a nasty message about it. To be brief, I not only told him off, I complained to the Director of the school.

    Then Saturday I was really stupid. I even managed to slip and pull part of the bannister out of the wall, making a nice little hole. I just keep going downhill.

    On top of it all, I was watching the Lizze McGuire television show all on my own. Is it just me, or is Hilary Duff hot? Oh, great, now I'm a pedophile.

    On a lighter note, Christina Dearlove's birthday just passed. It was one year ago that I spoke to my UK sisters for the first time. Anna-Marie was having a party there for Chris, and since she had given me her home number, I made a surprise call. I still remember every word said.
