Update:
Work: f'ing tax season. This year was way worse than last year despite the fact I now know what I'm doing. *grumble* We also had two people working through the whole season as opposed to last year when I was left all alone three quarters of the way through. There were just so many new clients and so much time wasted. I cannot believe that I have to go in tomorrow. Deadline's monday, if clients are still bringing stuff in, why can't we tell them to just f*ck the hell off? Jerks. Taxes are a fact of life, people, get with it!! I hope all of you have done your taxes, and if you haven't, please don't tell me.
Everything else: What everything else?? No time for anything in the past two or three weeks. *grumble* Wake up, go to work, work OT, go home, eat dinner, do nothing, shower, go to sleep. I honestly don't know how you tech people do it. Working from 9am to 7 or 8pm every nite. How do you not go crazy?? Actually, if my time at work was used efficiently (ie. no long-winded stories repeated over and over, no useless meetings and less procrastination from others), I wouldn't mind it much if I had to do OT for a few weeks. Work has to be done, my style is to work quickly and get things done. When others slow me down, I just think, "what's the point?" and draaaaaaaaaaag things on.
Anyway. Enough about work. Curse you all, damn time-wasters!! Ok ok, enough.
Edward was originally supposed to come back on May 6th.. but alas, he needs to stay in Boston to do his rotations. So Angry Panda, Babychai and I will take a little road trip there during the long weekend in May. Me so excited. I foresee lots of shopping, good food and sightseeing. And I get to see Edward, so that's a bonus. Oops.. uhm. I meant the shopping will be a bonus. Yeah. Yup yup, that's what I meant.
Speaking of a road trip... I should get my car checked before we go. I was driving around last Saturday when people in my car noticed a weird rattling noise emitting from somewhere in the back. I inspected it, thought it was stuff in my trunk, removed everything and the noise was still there. So I took to a Mazda dealership (Avante, I love them), and lo and behold, my right rear wheel was missing 2 out of 5 lug nuts. Lug nuts are the things that basically secure your wheel to your tire and without which your wheel will FALL OFF!! I was also informed that the three lug nuts left in the tire were not at all secure, meaning my whole wheel was loose. *insert wtf face* I had taken my car to this tire place to change back to my summer tires. I guess the guy did a shoddy job. I knew there was something I didn't like about that old guy. Grr.. I want to go yell at them since this was highly negligent on their part but I need to think about how to yell in chinese. So are there any volunteers?? I need someone who can yell in chinese. Where are my parents?!?!
Right, parents. Off on a 7 week trip. Don't ask me where. I can tell you which continent, but that's about it. (Europe). Been cooking and packing lunch every single day. You'd think I would go out a lot, but I'm trying to be good. It's been salad everyday for lunch for the past 7 days. It's getting rather boring, but I'm determined to stick with it for a while. Incidentally, the PC blue menu mango vinaigrette is really tasty.
Enough rambling. I will ramble again soon. I think.
time for: dishes. sigh. downside of making own dinner.
