This and that...
Aug. 28th, 2008 01:01 pmWell, the last few days have been almost totally unproductive. Spending too much time putting out fires and doing other things just to relax (and escape?
) Have come up with ideas for stories (current and future) but God only knows when things will settle down enough for me to actually write. It's so frustrating - RL sucks, sometimes.
Next week may be my last on second shift - I think I'm glad of that. My third shift boss wants me back until the end of September - but second shift needs another person, so I'm not taking any bets on who "wins". I don't like the second shift hours - seems like it's splitting the day in half for some reason. And I definitely like working third as far as personnel - ie, none around me!
And getting home in the early morning I can just keep going, then go to bed and get up just in time to go to work. Seems more natural than dropping everything in the middle of the day to go to work.
Never did get my DVD/VCR recorder to work. Must be bad karma or something - the menu wouldn't come up so I couldn't *do* anything.
And with the video capture card not being accepted by my pc, I was nowhere fast copying my tapes. But this guy at work showed me some hardware that plugs into the computer as a peripheral, instead of having to be installed - and it's not that expensive (about $50 bucks including shipping), so I may try that route.
I hate technology.
Well, not really - just the crap that won't work.
