T minus 18 hours...
What is it about the holidays that ends up bringing out the worst in people? I do have to admit my Thanksgiving experience thus far has not been bad. But when BLuR picks me up at work after a 1.5 hour battle with traffic, and actually has me drive home because he is so tired, and he LAUGHED when I told him I had to go to the store, I have to wonder. The store was fine, actually. Except for the employee who was explaining to this woman where to find the cheese. She sounded like she'd never been in a grocery store before. The woman, not the employee, who by virtue of his employment (and his uniform) had indeed been in the store before.
I called Mom today to ask how she felt about my visiting the first week in January. She said it was fine. Something is starting to feel a bit detached about the family. I think we're all just not communicating, and that's not good for us. Not that our communication is healthy. But I look at how I never gave my niece a birthday present this year, which is unlike me, and then I think, well her mom is a bitch, so it serves her right, but that's not really fair either. It's amazing how being separated from them has really meant that I'm growing in a totally different direction.
Since I'm peppering my entry with too many adverbs, I'm going to game now.

Users SUCK!
So, Nathan, Michelle, and I are eating our lunch in the lunchroom, and our boss comes wandering down. He tells us that our FAVORITE user, MBJ, has called HIS boss because she "couldn't get any help" from the helpline. PLEASE! So then what was the problem? User fucking error, as per usual. She can't seem to find her own sizable ass, even with a map, much less understand the system. Then when she needs help, she's a COMPLETE bitch.
So Nathan calls, and guess what? She's gone on vacation for the next week. Bitch.

Well, not really
Well, I guess it didn't really go that smoothly. I was sure there was something that MT wasn't telling me. I created an entry and there was no page! NOthing showed up. So then, I figured, oh I have to point at the blog directory. OK...but I was getting this weird style sheet free page without my entry, unless I specifically pointed at index.html. I couldn't figure that out so I moved it all to the root dir. But then it was working, but there was no style sheet. Dammit!
Some viewing of the forums suggested I install some Digest thingie in my extlib directory. Added that and now all is golden. Wonder what that was all about?
