I have a Yahoo account and it's the only one that's ever been hacked -- probably cause I log in once a year and never changed the password. Currently using Gmail and my ancient Hotmail for most stuff, both 2-step log-in protected.

Today's problem: Want to buy more USD but it's in an account where I can't easily swap the shit over without paying $100+ in transaction fees.

Network has been really slow the past couple of days. So I'm turning everything off (to expire the DHCP leases) and rebooting everything. Didn't realize how many devices are on my network.

FML... Just found out that I filed my tax return more than a week ago without including a form that can result in "substantial fines". Still got time, but FML, one more form I have to fill out in the future.

used the flushed urinal, flushed when i was done, and as i walked out someone else came in. so now he probably thinks (or at least a 50/50 thought) that i'm the unflusher

I just spent 3 hours working... the only 3 hours that I have to actually 'be' somewhere every week; very tiring. How the hell do people do this 40 hours a week?!

Had to fight with Lil rudeguys diabetes supply company. They lost his rx and didn't bother calling me to get it figured out. Turns out they did have it but I had to argue with them for 20 minutes.

Too bad you can't go to their call center. They might get the point sooner. Uncaring puds.

OMFGBBQ. Last time I bitched about having to redo some tax thing was 5:40pm, still doing it. Mother effer.

Edit: New word learned today: domicile.

boss took me out to lunch today for my last week, but we had to go at 11:30 because of a 1 pm conference call (much earlier than I usually eat lunch, since I usually don't take lunch until 2-3 pm)... so now it's 2:30 and I'm starving since I only nibbled on food when I was out with my boss.

debating if anyone would notice if I snuck out of the office for a 2nd lunch.

It's your last week... why are you even considering it?

I'd throw in a siesta under Debra's desk.

well, I'm also planning on leaving early today too (5:05 pm, as soon as I see my boss's car leave the parking lot), to make it home before the snow starts.

on a related note, it's taking foreeever to upload 40gb to GoogleDrive :/

exported my work email inbox to .pst ... going to import it into gmail for reference/archiving on my home PC, since I don't have rights to install the import app on my work computer. also need to still backup all the documentation I've written, tech documents I have saved, and such.

Sandwich guy asked me if I wanted my Italian Combo hot or cold. I responded with, "hot". He put the sandwich into the reheating oven but with a sandwich that was already in there. When the 1st sandwich's timer finished, he took both sandwiches out.

Mine was only slightly warmed.

I wanted a cheese strudel, but it turns out I ate the last one some time ago. I had to settle for caramel apple pecan.
