Tales from the Steppes2005-05-12 8:46 a.m.
Actually, the two I missed had to do with who closed out Woodstock and a John Mellancamp album. What can I say? I was not at Woodstock and I don't like John Mellancamp much. I don't dislike him enough to actually hit the radio in my haste to change channels, like I will for the Doors, but I certainly don't seek him out. In a way, taking this test was a little ironic because for once I have no music on. Yesterday I tried to upgrade my music service and got an error because I am not an admin. The partial install seems to have bolluxed up the system. And now I have no working programs that will play even a CD or an MP3. Completely hosed! I have emailed the IT guy in my old division, as he was cool about these things, to see if he will fix it for me, in return for some cookies. I even forgot to grab my MP3 player on my way out the door this morning. Ok, so yesterday I might have overstated my committment issues a bit. I think it is more the "for life" issue that I have a problem with. If people didn't say "I'll love you forever" we wouldn't have to listen to Alanis Morissette whinging about being dumped. I have fieldwork for the rest of the day, which could be interesting. At least I'll be outside, though perhaps in the rain. My superviser has told me that he wants me to be the office expert on invasives, as no one else really knows anything and I do have that horticulture degree. Still no sign of the Skullmaster. |
