Stop Messing With My Mind!!!

I know, I know, it's all too easy. And some folks actually call it fun.

But enough is enough, for cryin' out loud.

Time. I'm all about time. What day is it? What year is it? What the hell time is it?

Usually I wear a watch. But when I'm working from home, I often times forget to put it on. I don't normally keep my cell phone on my desk. I like having to get up and answer it. It keeps me from getting too stiff sitting at the computer all day.

I did finally fix (all by myself, even) my living room clock. But that is on the wall directly behind me.

Now...there is a digital clock on the bottom of my computer. And that is tied directly to the time that is on my fax machine. Cool. I should be happy as a pig in shit.

Yeah. No. When they set up this laptop everything is set for Eastern time. And, even though I've tried and tried, I can't get Central time zone info to stick.

So all day, the two clocks I pay the most attention to are an hour faster than what I am.

And it really f*cks with my head. Seriously.

Now, sometimes I actually remember this and adjust my self accordingly. But most of the time? Yeah, I've got other things on my mind, so I just glance and....well, panic. What? 2:30 already?!?!? Where has the day gone!?!?!?!??!

Yeah, stupid I know, but hey.....it's my life.

A "normal" person might consider putting a little clock on their desk. Yeah, emphasis on the word normal there, please.

I've got too much crap to do that. I have the family picture of AWTM from a couple of Christmas' ago, with one of my favorite shots of myself and some friends in New Orleans. There are the necessary staplers, envelopes, papers and papers and, oh, papers. (Remember, no drawers or file cabinets.)

Anyway - this is just me, takin' a break after giving myself a heart attack AGAIN, to whine and moan. I'll go back to work now. No sense wasting this hour I just found.......
