One of those days

I had planned on posting something yesterday. I had planned on doing a lot of things yesterday that I never quite got done. Not that there was any sort of sudden emergency or technical problems that required my attention, I was working strictly from my tasklist for the day pretty much all day. It just seemed to take everything a little longer than usual. Seemed like instead of just making a change, I found myself explaining it to someone, and then re-explaining it to someone else when that first someone didn’t quite have it right when they spoke to the second someone. Even last night, I was trying to create a few things and it seemed like everything I tried just wasn’t quite right. I did manage to put together an objective resume statement for a resume class I’m taking after many attempts, but my attempts at doing some voice overs for a couple of my podcasting buddies had to be abandoned after awhile. I simply couldn’t get those right at all!

Hopefully today will be better, but the distractions that I know were a big part of the problem yesterday have already started today. At least some of the distractions of yesterday were good news. More on that when/if my wife decides she wants to blog about it! (Update: she has and no Craig, we’re not having a little one!)

    And man, it can’t come too soon. I’ve been running around fighting fires and giving explanations to people all day! Unfortunately, I’m afraid all it’s done is push back a bunch of things that I need to get done into next week. You know, the week with only 3 working days. 🙂 Ahh well, I’ll…

    “All I did was try to download a Solitaire game from the Internet” Anyone who’s ever helped someone clean up a spyware infestation knows exactly what I’m talking about. One “innocent” little game came complete with 8 toolbars, 4 startup executables, 3 advertising generators, multiple registry entries, random processes and, ironically enough, an anti-spam program that…

  • Update on David Newberger

    Kevin was kind enough to post another update to David’s blog about his health. Included in this is David’s Skype ID so we can leave him voice mail messages wishing him well.
