Well I am super nervous today.
The big dogs are in the building today conducting an audit, and meeting with a large amount of people to have focus groups.
Basically they are making sure I do my job.
I am responsible for making sure all 1000ish agents in our center have the tools they need to do their job. I am the only one who does this. therefore if I fuck up, i cost the company a ton of money.
So if things go badly today, I am screwed. These people they are meeting with say one bad thing about how they don't have the proper tools and stuff, and it comes right back to me. Last time it was just an operations manager conducting the focus groups, and a couple agents said they didn't have any access. Turns out they reported it to their managers, and their managers didn't get it to me, but I still got in trouble for not being proactive.
So for the past 3 months I have been harassing everyone about tools and hopefully today's group will be great. Thankfully Bryce got picked to go so he is in there and can stand up for me.
Im nervous.

BREATHE! just sit, do your job, and stay as quiet as you can. Dont ask questions, dont run to the potty 50 times, and dont be caught doing email, and personal phone calls. just quietly do your job. Just think tomorrow they will be gone.
hang in there.
My hubby has been away in another state taking care of his very sick daddy, and I have been on a "staycation" where you stay home and have a vacation. its been AWESOME! quiet time, can watch weepy girl movies, play with the cats, eat what I want, go to bed early or get up late. woo! I miss him, but I think I needed some ME ME ME and leave me alone time. Ahhh...

I have recovered froma nasty ass flu. Got home from work on Friday, played Wow, and it hit me like a ton of bricks. Nasty stomach pains, nauseous feeling. Yick! That night I had massive diareah (sp?) threw up twice and felt like shit. The follwing day I slept for hours and hours. And later I discovered I pulled a muscle in my chest from all the insane vomitting so my chest was KILLING me. What a horrible easter weekend. I took Monday off of work but I was better enough to go back today. Chest is still a bit sore but its getting better.

Well im on a drawing kick. I even want to try my hands at painting. I created a profile at Deviant Art to show off some of my stuff. I will link to it once I feel it is set up.
Art supplies are so damned expensive. I want Prismacolor Markers, but they are like $3 per marker. And you need lots and lots to get your colors going.
*Sigh* maybe i can submit some stuff and get some money. Do some freelancing? I will have to research.

hortario.deviantart.com/Thats the online profile I am creating. A lot of the work there isnt the quality I want to be showing off. I am redoing them all digitally. The current project should hopefully be done tonight.

I saw the new Star Trek movie last Friday! IT WAS AWESOME! Just GREAT! The fun is back in Star Trek! If you have never seen a Trek film before, this movie is a great introduction. And if you have seen one before, this movie is just a great tribute to the orignal series & a great new start for Trek. ;D I think the only other movie I'll prob see this summer will be Harry Potter in July. Maybe. We'll see. In other news: It is FINALLY the end of the semster. I have my last final today and I'm very happy about that. This semster has just been... and and I am so glad that summer is almost here. My plan for this summer: rest, relax, write, read, play video games, etc, etc, etc. I am looking forward to this summer a lot. I'm not doing anything, but you know, thats alright. I think I really need to just relax more and try to get some more writing and reading and video game playing done. lol. Anyway, I hope you guys and gals are doing good. Man, can't wait till today is over! DF2506 " DF is on Twitter. I'm here: twitter.com/df2506 "

I'll probably check out that new Star Trek after this coming weekend. I love the original cast of characters. I always say TNG was the best show but the original cast had the best characters and the more memorable movies. But really, they are all great. Except for DS9 and Enterprise. Those failed to impress me. XD
