Officially -hate- this never ending winter thing. Another dumping of 10+cm of snow they said.. NOOO Much more than that. PLUS we've officially found out that my car also hates the snow as it's constantly getting stuck in today's snowfall. bah!
Or just shame people who abuse illusions or try to steer them back to the rp world and not nerf skills that responsible people like to use.
In the words of the great Joe Rogan "We should outlaw hammers because that way you can't hit yourself in the unicorns with them" IE dont make laws from stupid people
In that case, thank you, @Eleanor. I hated that sig too.

So. A few weeks ago I was complaining about an incompetent employee where I work who had called in sick for really dumb reasons, who came to work while STILL sick and was coughing all over the place without covering her mouth, which got ME sick.
For the past week, she hasn't been showing up to work on days when she had been scheduled to work, and the schedule has been posted for all of March for a while now. We've been calling her since Saturday trying to figure out where the hell she's been and if she's even coming back since she hasn't told anybody anything. Yesterday when we call her home line, she tells us she's not coming back to work. This is AFTER the schedule for the whole month and the trade show that we're doing for the next two weeks has been made. She gave us no notice whatsoever, and now we have no time to try and hire a replacement because we have the trade show, and we're severely short-staffed. And to top it all of, it's inventory month.
So, now I'm stuck working seven days straight (with overtime pay, which isn't too bad), and I'm stuck working several days by myself because the other two employees are going to be either working at the trade show or otherwise unavailable because this freaking lady decided to bail on us.
Laptop died last night. On my way out the door to get a new one, I slipped on a patch of ice. I kept my hold on the door knob trying to keep from falling and pulled something in my should pretty badly. Amg ouch.
On the up side, I have a shiny new laptop. Maybe not top of the line, but it's better than the junk-pile I was using.
Except for the unicornsing keyboard. Getting used to this is going to take time.
Got computer back today. Dc-connection, which has been iffy for about a year, is worse than ever. Took me a few hours to find the right position for the Cable, now I can't Breathe anymore, because if I do, it will stop working again. <.< On the plus side, fan is working like a charm!
Visual Studio 2012 express is not compatible with windows 8 apparently. I hope that the version specifically -for- windows 8 still works. Not sure if I can use 2013 express for my class ;_;

HAHA IT DIDN'T WORK. We have to use 2012 for a class I'm using. Luckily, my school has a dreamspark account so I can get the professional edition, which has been patched to work, for free. Just a pain in the ass to do it.
Staph infection and fever during midterms. Worse? It is in my nose. I look like I caught a reindeer STD from Rudolph. I didn't expect my nose to match my hair. Heh

I've seen worse. Much worse. Just make sure you take your entire course of antibiotics.
Yeah, a bulb is forming on my nose from the infection. lol
EDIT: They gave me antibiotics and nasal cream. When I apply the cream, I don't have itching or pain.

Just found out that David Hayter is no longer to be the voice of Solid Snake, being replaced by Kiefer Sutherland. Not to knock on the new guy, but it just won't be the same Snake I grew up with without David!
I think this metal gear is going back to like Big Boss and not actually Solid Snake, so the voice actor being different is understandable. But that's just a rumor I picked up and nothing I've read.
