Everything I have touched today
has been destroyed.
Utterly.
I should have gone with my initial feeling of "Uhoh, today is going to suck, I need to stay RIGHT HERE."

*sigh*
If this is karmic retribution, for laughing, I'll remind the Universe that that thing laughed at me first. Then I'll apologize to the Universe (however not to the thing, she just sucks.)
If this is just Friday the 13th stuff, I'd like it to stop now, please.
The innocent victims of the destruction don't need to deal with things.

I need to get to the post office, and I need to print my Xmas card labels, but that won't be til later.

*sigh*

The day, in brief

The Day that should not be, to paraphrase Metallica -
- Wake up late. I've been negotiating an earlier start time with my body, one it seems to be ignoring. We've been trying 7AM, which isn't working, so last night I decided on 8AM. I jolt awake at exactly 9. The time i wanted to be leaving.

- 4 Amazon sales to ship, none of which is done, becuase I was "tired" and wanted to get up early. This makes me even later.

- Stupid elderly man in truck who ignores the Stop sign, and pulls out in front of me, and then stares at me in his rearview mirror while I howl at him. I almost ran HEADFIRST into him, becuase, obviously, that Stop sign doesn't mean HIS right turn, into MY lane of traffic. Thank all the GODS he didn't go my way, I would have walked up to him and told him how much his mother sucked for having him.

- Get to work, in bad mood, and the boss KNOWS I'm in a bad mood, and that depresses her.

- While waiting for her to be at a stopping point, I start cleaning up the network from our new server transfer. This is where the term "mirrored" drive takes a whole new meaning, as when the network guy set things up, he DIDN'T say "Hey your old drive U: and V: are now on one drive." I thought he'd actually put in two physical drives.

*I proceed to delete the key Data file, with all our current stuff on it*

- Have nervous breakdown trying to figure out backup program.
- Realize the reason I can't figure out the porgram, is that tapes were never switched accordingly. So we HAVE NOT been doing backups for weeks now.

- Call computer guy who comes down, and can restore to backup from install of new server
Two Months Ago.
Work lost - All MINE. Everything I did pre London, everything I've done since, becuase the boss hasn't been doing much.

Now i sit here, drained beyond belief. I've now given myself SO much work to do it isn't funny. I'm almost ready to cancel plans for tomorrow, except I know that won't do any good. It certainly won't make me feel better, nor will I be productive.

All I want to do is sleep. No ManRay, no Movies, no nothing. Just sleep. This is a VERY BAD SIGN.

I've decided, however, that I'm going to go home soon, after fixing one client who is easily fixable, look at my accounting, deposit a check, and figure out if I can have sushi. Then I'm thinking a late night visit, like 10 or 11 or so, to Apollo, right around the corner from Ginza. Any takers should email me. This is a plan ONLY I'm not promising anything.

OK I have to go drop dead now. *kicks rock*
