My first WW wallpaper



It's 1280 x 800, and I got the screen caps from The West Wing Collection and from Misdirection.

Doggie Pics - Sammie





And all of these are of Sammie. She's six now, and goes by a lot of nicknames...Squirt for example. Oh, and she LOVES to stare at lights and shadows; she's like a cat with a laser pointer!

Doggie Pics - Maxie





All of the pictures in this post are of Maxie. She's 10 now, and the "old lady."

I hate my job

I know it pays well, but I hate it nonetheless. If I could find another that paid as well, I'd switch in a heartbeat. It wasnt so bad when I was just working 12 hrs/week during school, but now Im working 40 hrs/week and I hate it...absolutely hate it. Nothing I do requires that I use my brain. And the lady I work with, when I started full time, said I should start making goals for each week, now that Im working a "real" job. Okay, Judy...what Im doing doesnt count, because I dont have to use my brain. I'm getting a college education and Im going to use my brain in my job. Thus, this doesn't count as working in the "real world." It's a job, one that's structured around school, and that's another reason its not anything like what I'll have one I graduate. I've been cleaning out the filing cabinet since classes ended almost 4 weeks ago now, and Im almost half way through the filing cabinets. Of course, once I get the filing cabinets done, I get to deal with the inventory mess on my desk, and in terms of the boredom factor, that stuff isn't much better. However, the inventory stuff should only take me 2 solid weeks of work, or perhaps not even that. However, after that Im still left with a good portion of July and almost all of August. I shudder to think of the projects they'll find for me to do. I miss 12 hrs/week, when all I had time for was entering the odd order and filing. *sigh* Im just frustrated.

I'm Creating a Website

I bought a domain name and a host this evening :) Cost me $62/year. That's actually pretty good. I've dealt with this hosting company before, and was very happy with what I got. When the site gets up and running, it will have several areas, and will all be accessible from www.celestial-navigation.net . :) A little play on words from West Wing. :) Im currently waiting for my email that says things have been activated, and to give me the pertinent information I'd need.

Im hoping my cubbies hurry up and win this game. It's currently in the bottom of the 14th....
