  • To-Do List Progress on Saturdays

    I think I have to respect the ability to put on make up while driving. I would never do such a thing myself since I do not wear make up, of course. Naturally, it is illegal here to drive while talking on a cell phone. Yet, one can put on make up while driving. Go…

  • Saturday Work

    Workin on yet another Saturday. Trying to automate a process that I don’t think was really meant to be automated. If it had been meant to be automated, then 1) information on the process would be in the company’s docs (not on a 3rd part support group’s hacks) and 2) the program running it would not…

  • Next

    Kewl dream… Was working on something and phone rings. So I start to take care of it. A couple people come into my office and sit down. A few more people are waiting just outside the door. I finished the phone call and said, “Next.” Took care of one of the people waiting on me.…
