Changing plans..

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

The events of last night and today led to quite the day today. Dylan was delivered to our house yesterday evening in preperation for the fireworks last night. Angela was called off to Huntington to be with her father and Dylan and I were left to our own devices for the night, and into this afternoon. Between being worried about Angela and her dad, and trying to entertain and take care of a 4 year old on my own, I’m tired. I’m glad her dad is going to be OK, that was enough of a relieve that I actually got to enjoy my birthday some, and spend some time with the rest of my family today, but I missed her and wish we could have both been in the same place. On the other hand, knowing her dad’s going to be alright and that, in turn, Angela is going to be alright is the best birthday gift I could have hoped for. We’ll be sure to celebrate with a leftover piece of birthday cake when you get home Sunday sweetheart…

    This post over at the Friends in Tech forum brought back a lot of memories, especially Douglas’ response, because he really gives some insight into the real meaning of those kinds of comments from users. In the 7 annual reviews I went through at my old job, years 2,3 and 4 all included that sort…

    We’ve managed to make it back from our trip to the in-laws for my brother-in-law’s engagement party. It was fun, and it was nice to be able to do some things as far as helping with the party and doing some minor fixes to their PC while we were there. Angela’s parents do so much…

    I’m sure by now we’ve all heard the horror stories of working on a helpdesk, and after 7 plus months working on one I can totally see exactly where they’re coming from, and even have a few of my own. On the other hand, one thing that I get working on a helpdesk far more…
