Crazy, daddy...
Mar. 19th, 2001 07:49 pmToday turned out to be a pretty active day at the store. By 3:58 pm, we were awash in packages awaiting processing for the UPS pickup, which was supposed to occur at 4:00 pm, but was delayed due to a truck breakdown. Tempers were short, blood pressure was high, but the job got done.
Phew.
The highlight of the day was the arrival, sometime in the morning, of Lee. She brought herself and Sasha, the Dog Who Will Chew Anything to the old domicile in Pagosa. Some crisis/crises in her life, if I understand correctly, and I am trying mightily to stay the heck out of her hair by asking her a load of fool questions about her problems. I figure she'll volunteer something soon; if not, well, then I'll start to pry, but gently.
Running in parallel with this post, I'm trying to download mail, which is taking forever. Either a bunch of people decided to send me megabyte-sized files, or my local ISP is back to 1200-baud mode. Or maybe it's some combination; the progress indicator from Outlook shows my downloading the last of 11 messages, but the bar is only about 75% of the way across its full span.
It's kind of difficult to think of anything other than getting the mail and packages out these days. Certainly there's not much opportunity to think of Life, or the Universe, or Anything...unless I make such opportunities happen.
Aha. Mail just finished...gotta go see what's there (besides spam).
Cheers...
