What a week…

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

I don’t think I’ve ever been so glad to have a week over with. There’s just been so much turmoil and stress involved with work this week that it will be so nice just to have a couple of days where I don’t have to be here!

I did discover today that there wasn’t a delay in hiring a new person, it was just that no one bothered to tell me until today that she starts Monday. Nothing like trying to get accounts and a PC setup when I had already scheduled so many other things that needed to get done today! But things went well and one of my coworkers did a great job of getting stuff done that she was unfamiliar with without needing too much help from me, and everything got accomplished. I’m going to bask in the relief of knowing we got everything done today that needed to get done despite the odds this weekend. I’ll worry about what all we need to get done Monday, on Monday.

Hope you all have a great weekend!

(No that’s not a trivial matter, there is quite a bit of animosity between various people in my office. *L*) Seriously though, the food was alright, (although Angela…

    I had a sudden thought this morning in the shower about the comments. The sudden realization that I had put the link to the comments BlogItemNumber in quotes so it would look for a string instead of a number but I hadn’t put the quotes around the second part of the comments code where that…

    Random updates on previous posts: The tape drive from Friday turned out to be fine. Had a little scare with static electricity when I went to unplug the drive and plug it back in, but aside from suddenly shutting down our only server with no notice late Friday afternoon, everything was back to normal.

    Update to this post about fixing the comments. I figured out what I had done wrong. I put the blogitemnumber in quotes in the template (Right after the “javascript:aspcomments”) after I had already left a comment. The comment got stuck in the database with the wrong blogid, since the javascript rounded it 17 digits and…

    Are extensions the killer feature in Firefox? Absolutely. I’ve used IE7 a bit. It’s slow, but sometimes Firefox is too. It has tabs, it’s relatively secure compared to IE6, it has a pop-up blocker built in, it has pretty decent cookie and password management built in. In a nutshell, it has many of the same…
