    A Thread About Absolutely Nothing! Part III

    Finally had a talk with the oldest (19) yesterday about some recent poor decisions she's made and offered her some advice on moving forward. Made her feel a bit sad, but could tell she appreciated the talk and knowing I still love her. Glad I waited, because I was really angry with her at the...

    My dentist has a routine for kids. He brings them in for an initial visit so they can sit in the chair and play with the tools, like Mr. Squirty. He also creates their chart and notes all the teeth and their condition. Any cleaning or work is done in another visit.

    Finishing a little work. A change was made to our app, and no one let me know of the name change, so it's been getting filtered... Hopefully they didn't burn too much time testing!

    I've thought about moving things. I might be able to move it more towards the center, but unfortunately the way the room is, If I try to go to the other side, it could block the bathroom and exit. On the plus side, there's no thermostat upstairs. The electric bill isn't too bad - I like...

    I managed to get the vent closed. I tried the magnet, but it was way too weak. Probably great on the floor, but the one I got couldn't support it's weight on just the outer edges and a few grates. :(

    Yeah, I might have to switch, I got the vent to close. I'll need to find one like that where it clips in.

    Oooh, I like the magnetic one. I like it cool, so would rather block it all together. *checks amazon!!* Thanks!

    Can't believe this place is dying....

    I'm not a facebook person. And know I can get toxic, so stayed off here a while. I miss some of the people that came, and I'm pretty dysfunctional at making friends. And I'm not really comfortable about talking about my hearing loss. It seems to bother more than it should some days. Like...

    Not sleeping in :( The heat vent is right over my face in bed. It's one of the few vents in the house that has good flow. The slats won't close, so I taped over it. The tape finally came loose and it started hitting me again. Now retaped. They secured the vents into the drywall, so not...

    The ear pain finally eased off this weekend. Hopefully can visit mom this weekend, she had a couple of falls at the retirement/assisted living home. She's doing fine, just tripped on stuff on the floor, so I'm glad it's not some other problem. Just still adjusting to the artificial hip. Bit...

    Thanks. Was the game any good? Saw Bruins won. I don't watch much sports anymore, but was more into basketball. I like watching with other people more. Know someone who's a HUGE Flyers fan (lives outside Philly) and those games with him going crazy were probably the best ever from all the...

    Decompressing after work. Not sleeping well (thanks tinnitus and ear pain). Trying to find the energy to head to VA for a day trip tomorrow, yet secretly wishing I oversleep. And wishing the ringing and pain would stop. Please. In the mean time, it's as good a time as any to play Plague.

    What did you learn today? Part II

    I dunno, it could help us reduce churn and troubleshoot wireless issues. Just not sure if we could save enough money to make up on the ROI in a year. On the plus side, it's the end of the year, and sales people are more eager to meet their quotas. On the down side, it's just software, so it's...

    Trying to learn about machine learning programming. Went to an event where they have added some really cool features into a network product we use for work, and thought I'd try to learn more about it in general. It was pretty amazing and scary to see what they can do now. With more traffic...

    And another person we can't do without left our group. Even more knowledge gone. Really need to step up my pace to find a place to go. He's been acquiring a lot of certifications the past couple of years, so don't doubt he will do well. Not sure that I'll miss him as a person or coworker...

    Going to Ft Lauderdale next week! Hoping there are sharks teeth to find. Been training a new guy who works remote. Glad there is Skype and screen sharing - he has a very low voice and sounds mumbly to me. Been thinking about my hearing lately, too. This hasn't helped. Also, it smells like...

    They are running out of people to let go. We did hire a replacement to start in a couple of weeks. My boss had to do some not so professional things to get people to respond. It's amazing how many people get by without doing their job. We suspect blackmail is involved to be so useless and...

    So much stress at work and life. As soon as I put one out of my mind, the other is there. Running is going well, though. I don't feel like I need to call it slow jogging anymore. Anyone else using Garmin when running? I'm addicted to the maps and stats.

    What did you learn today? Part II

    I learned that I haven't forgotten as much as I thought. Been carrying the brunt of work from someone who quit and hadn't been involved for a few years. I think I just pushed it out of my mind.
