OK my head is about to explode because I've been crunching the numbers for my department and trying to make this budget work
OK first Guestbook stuff
-Dani -- it is there -- have a good summer-- and not problem I have only read a little bit of your stuff
-kittykatne -- its never to late to play any of the games I put up on here --glad you had a good weekend and a good night out with your "hubby" and yes you get an A for effort.
OH and I added a notify list -- this is for the many of you who are coming by and checking things out but aren't ready to sign the guestbook or add me to your fave list
See just because I'm invisible doesn't mean I'm not trying to meet your needs for reading enjoyment
Which reminds me hopefully we are working out the bugs on a fun little thing which we call SOAPLAND We really hope this works
OK back to where I started with my headache.
Thanks to some losses in funding -- which is a whole other thing with the Governor and the state budget and fundraising
Yes because of what other people have done, I'm redoing a budget that I did back in February
make it smaller the accounting department says
OK (I quickly change of the font size and hit print)
"There you go, its smaller." I say
Well as you may have guessed-- the accountants weren't amused -- not even the slightest bit.
I thought it was extremely funny and laughed a little bit out loud until they looked over their glasses at me. Well there you go try to make someone smile it does no good if they don't want to have a good time.
Anyway
I think I got the whole thing worked out -- they the accountants a.k.a. You're not funny invisible don are looking at it now
Oh and no they don't call me invisible don
They call me, "you are not funny" and "the guy in the office" or "Hey you can you come lift this thing 'cause its heavy thanks"
OK, so I promised yankeebelle a story about my college law professor
My grad school college law professor lets call her P
She was the Asst. Prosecuting Atty. for the jurisdiction in which the college is located and she was chair of the department and everyone was afraid of her. Even the campus police (real police not security) Captain would bring an armed escort anytime he had to meet with her (seriously) with order to shoot her if she killed him.
So anyway my friend M who is now a lawyer and I have her in Constitutional Law and we are both GA/TA (graduate assistants and teaching assistants) which means the teachers see you a lot more and thus expect more out of you especially if they "know" you are smart (M) or think you are smart (me).
Anyway
We had a semester paper due for her and a final exam all coming up in the next few weeks
Well I'm stressing over the class and the paper and so is M well I have this dream before the class on day The professor P is in her office
I'm in my GA/TA office
She yells for me to do something
So I do it
Then I have to use the restroom (in the dream)
well I get there and in walks the professor P while I'm busy standing there
I look back and She flips me off and says you're going to fail this class because I know what you're up to ass*&%^*&
Well I wake up and I'm freakin' out -- I don't even want to go to class -- I know it doesn't seem that bad but you don't know this lady
Well in reality all the staff thought M and I were having a thing behind her husbands back -- he even thought so too at some point. This was not true of course but there was this one time I guess things could have but I may have missed the hint. That is a whole other story and long after grad school. However the point is once a rumor or something like that gets going its hard to stop.
The missing of the hints is a problem that still plagues me.
A topic for another issue is my bad reputation my friend Jon says -- it would cost a fortune to pay for the advertising to come up with your reputation, It hasn't cost me a cent yet, but I have had a gun waived in my face more than once
OK back to me not getting the hint
I'm really bad at picking up on flirting -- well the dental assistants are really blunt about it -- otherwise I just miss these things
Here is an example
When I was 17 I had a summer job at a state park as a waiter. One day during lunch a few ladies were in for lunch. Nothing out of the ordinary happened during the meal and the conversation between myself and them was the normal what is there to do around here sort of thing yadda yadda yadda. Well at the end of their meal I brought out the bills, separate checks for each person well with the one ladies check and money was a room key
Well I go running after her "here you forgot this"
She turned and looked at me waited and then she smiled and said as she took the key back "you're nice looking but you aren't that bright are you."
I didn't get it until she was walking away
So I miss many little hints about stuff like that I think it has something to do with being cloistered away in the seminary and then again being in the seminary that is usually the last thing you are thinking about most of the time
Well gotta go I don't think this entry makes a whole lot of sense
