another day in the life
I meant great caeser's cyst (as in great caeser's ghost - name that reference) or at least great scott! in the previous title... but then again, I think it came out more like it's the great pumpkin, charlie brown, which pleases and amuses me even more... and thank you for your comments... the words and I feel much less lonely out here in this blog when you are around...
not much to say about home... Precious is up in Tallahassee for the week... she apparently hooked up with a boy she had a crush on in the seventh grade... I won't read too much into just what hooked up means for now... Rasputin is zoning, as usual... it's his night off and he'll most likely nap, watch TV, eat pizza, get on his computer, and nap some more... as for me, I ate a salad and sat for an hour or so, paid some bills, watched whatever was on Sci-FI, Special Unit 2, and then headed to the gym...
another decent workout, 50 minutes at 7+ mph at level 10 and the lower back, which was a bit achy yesterday (enough to convince me to give into fatigue and skip last night and maybe even have me questioning whether an ultrasound could disturb cysts or stones or tissue enough to cause some kidney pain), feels much better... it's so dang easy to misread aches and pains and then fear the worst and then give into worry and then head off on the road to panic and self-pity, really... luckily I have an instinct that pulls me out of that trap rather quickly, usually before I get caught in it... and I laugh at myself once again for even even considering not pushing through the pain, cuz once again I proved it not only can be done, but needs to be done...
and as you see, I then came back here and continued this entry... I spoke to PRecious... she has a boyfriend now... they'll be about eight hours apart as they start college, but who knows what next year will bring... ah, young love, so exciting, so inspiring, so unpredictable, so life-changing... can't wait 'til it happens to me again :)
at work, I was asked to sit in on training for the new admissions system (the obstacle is gone... that is, the previous business office manager who refused to allow me access to the system because he did not want anyone who knew more than he did around is gone and the new business office manager seems to have nothing to do with admissions (even though her direct subordinates do) and so the business director seems in charge and wants me there so I can train him and others and trouble shoot after the corporate techies leave... the business office manager and IT person was not asked into the training, which makes no sense, but it'll probably work out much better this way as they don't seem to do much anyway)...
meanwhile, tomorrow I am skipping the in-house coprorate training so I can go downtown for more training (provided by the state) that I don't need because I had to train myself in their system in order to do the job for the past tenine months... and then Thursday and Friday I'll be back in the at the hospital for the corporate admissions training... so next week, I'll get back to the assessments and data (my job) that was due on the 1st of June and when I am done with that (probably Thursday if more surprises don't pop up), I'll start on the other data that's due on the 15th (of May), though I have two more days of training the following week... so much for catching up... lucky for me nobody seems to care or know exactly what I do...
one of these days I'm gonna take a few days off again :)
a tree fell on Jackson's, (my officemate) car and dented it the roof... it's a relatively new car and luckily she has no deductable on her insurance so it'll be fixed for free, but it's still her baby and was a bit of a trauma... we stood outside with the car a few minutes, reassured the car that it would be fine, and I think Jackson felt better too...
and that was the day in RealTime™... and as I trail off into my wanderings while listening to Ligion, I hope yours was enjoyable, challenging in positive ways, full of surprises, and everything turned out fine, hunky-dorry, even :)

Amazing how much of the work environment is run by people too insecure to hire or let those with better skills in.
Glad your new boss (business director) is of the more 'enlightened' garden variety.
Makes the work environment
Infinitely more enjoyable & productive
the necessity for madness and unproductivity is a good book.
was Office Space a book before it was a movie?...
anyway, the business director (marketing and external business) is probably going to be my direct boss after my current direct boss leaves on the 30th... the business office manager (under the CFO/Comptroller, internal business) only bugs me because I have to keep correcting her (and doing her job) iin order to do my job as she's still not gotten a handle on the system the previous manager had (because he was paranoid and wouldn't share) and does not seem open to guidance or assistance...
luckily, her assistant follows my directions for now and hopefully it won't turn into a power struggle as the assistant is the one who makes the corrections and it would not be wise for the office manager to insist on her way when it is wrong...
they are all up in another part of the hospital anyway and my area is a whole lot less stressful and clinically oriented... I've basically become the conduit for communiation between the departments because there is no actual system for communication in place other than the very informal way the previous business office manager communicated the necessary admissions and discharges information to those who needed it...
life might become boring if the insecure idiots were not in charge...
maybe :)
