A haphazard update. Awake is not I.
In list format, because this quite literally has no real content whatsoever. And because it doesn’t require so much thought. Doing your taxes for the first time sucks, royally. Not so much because it’s not easy to do (mine, at least, border on being way too bloody simple), but because … Read the rest

Wherein James pwns. Again.
They gave me an hour for that test. I was done in half that. And blew it away. I should do crap like that on no sleep and a can or two of coke more often. I are teh awesome.

I may be slightly sadistic.
As evidenced by the fact I am at work on no sleep, and in 20 minutes will be taking a qualifications exam of which I had 2 days notice. That, of course, necessitated that I take yesterday off to study for it; you try squeezing in studying for a test … Read the rest

Must… survive… 25… minutes…

Just how awesome is James?
Walked some chick through replacing RAM for her system. Now, keep in mind I have no idea what said system looks like internally. Or just how skilled she actually is (she was decent, for the record). Duplicate *that*, I dare ya. Or maybe not. PS: No, I’m not always that … Read the rest

I’m awake. Somehow.
I have no idea how I managed to pull that off. Nor do I have any idea how I managed to drag my ass to work this morning. I got enough sleep, I just didn’t want to get up. No big surprise for me lately; stay up ’til 4 for … Read the rest

Someone go to work for me tomorrow.
I don’t wanna.

Over. Three. Hours. *dies*
I have officially gone over 3 freakin’ hours on this call. For something that, had the last 2 guys before me actually done what they were supposed to, wouldn’t have needed to take that long. Le sigh. Going home tonight’s gonna feel so damn good…
