Well, once again it was ass-kickin' time at the old hospital, and yours truly, naturally, got his ass kicked. I didn't get my 05:00 portables done until after 07:00... and I was supposed to be gone by then, having had no lunch.

There were interesting things happening, though, so I didn't really mind. Too much, anyway.

So I got home and checked my email. One in there from LiquidWeb, my virtual site provider. Oh, by the way, we're having problems with Majordomo... the mailing list program. It hasn't worked in a week.

Bite my ass. I spent a lot of time and wasted a lot of brain cells trying to figger out how to make something work that didn't work. Kinda like working on a car, trying everything you know to get it running. No go... and finally someone comes up and says..." you know, I decided to put water in the gas tank..."

So hopefully, they'll let me know when it's working again, and I can start over again.


good news from Doug this morning... they have opened up the position for Radiology Systems Manager! So I'll need to stay over on Friday and get my name in.

I have kind of lost my enthusiasm for that, though. Unlike a lot of other people, I know how much that I have to learn. I'm perfectly capable of learning, of course, but it is kinda scary in a way.

A couple of weeks (or maybe months) ago, Lucy was talking about being discovered... as in, having people find out how smart you aren't. This has always been one of my fears. I know how the mighty can fall, I've seen them... and I don't want to do that.980708.jpg

I wish that I could remember what she called it... it was a cute phrase, or word. But I don't have the time or energy to do the research right now... and I'll forget about it when I do, so there it stands.

Well, hell, as long as I'm dropping links, go see Samantha (Sam). She mentioned that she is going to try to quit smoking by the end of this month, and I think that I'll try to do that too.

Hey, maybe I could start a 'burb of journallers who have tried to quit and couldn't... or are trying, or thinking about trying, or have given up on trying... I just need a real catchy name for it now. Any Ideas?

Ok... that's it.


Thanx for being here!
