Weekly Update!
... a little tardy and pre-dated...
So I just moved into my 'new' place which denied me access to my computer in the interim, so while I had every intention of doing the first installment of my personal update on schedule the I was pretty much SOL on that until I got my computer up and running, which I have! Although, it should be noted that everytime I move some piece of computer hardware dies... And this time was no exception, fortunately it was only my speakers (which I was likely going to replace anways) and it was entirely my fault to boot! In my haste to assemble my computer I connected the wrong AC adapter to the speakers and instead of giving them the 9volts they wanted I provided 120 at roughly thrice the amperage... Which explains the high pitched (albeit short-lived) whine they emitted.... Oooops!
Current I am typing this on my Blackberry while awaiting the arrival of the Mystery Girl who texted me two weeks ago. The identity was confirmed by a call to that number from a landline so I could listen to the voicemail message... and even though the mystery was revealed there is still a great deal of humor involved because this is an individual I was trying to get to call me for weeks and finally texted me... but without any introduction on her part! I am meeting her for a couple of drinks after her last day at work, I hope there is some mutual interest there, we shall see and I will update later!
Work, well... there was an incident. One that has been resolved but not to my satisfaction. I sounded out my old Director of Ops in Kananaskis as to what he would do in my situation, as well as my parents and got conflicting recommendations. I think once the latest bundle of stress dies down, I will need to take my bosses out for a drink and lay my cards on the table and see how they are willing to accomodate my concerns... I had hoped that our fiscal pressures would be alleviated a bit by now but like all thing nothing ever goes according to plan.
The funny thing about where I have moved is that I am replacing my Ex on her old lease and have moved in with Tim... which seems odd as she replaced me as his roomie when I moved to Kananaskis and he moved out to the new place and now things have come full circle...
