You would think that with the downturn of the overall economy, I would be on here more; not be as busy and such at work.
Unfortunately, not true. With things slowing down, I'm still knocking myself out with backed up projects and put-off work. I have however, been graced with the help of a co-worker to help wade through the backlog. It is still going to take, *ermmm*, a month or two to get caught up completely. By then, a bunch of new work should be rolling in. And that, with a very tight timetable for knocking it all out.
And this brings me to the "still quiet, mostly" part.
With the backed up work keeping me hopping, and with no offers of help from the rest of the crew (with the one exception), my mood, while not foul, hasn't been the most cordial. I prefer to post upbeat, humorous, funny, cute, cool, worth reading stuff. Been kind of hard to do.
I find myself wanting, instead, to gripe, complain, moan, whine and carry on (I stopped here mostly because I ran out of adverbs) about the world in general. Now how fun is that to a person that isn't into "rant postings" (or should that be "rant POSTALS")?
Not that funny stuff hasn't happened. A lot has. But when I want to say "Ooh, Ooh. Wanna know what happened???", and it comes out like the sound track of Gordzilla hawking a much needed laxative, it maybe isn't the best time to kit the keyboard.
But I'm getting back into things now that the steaming piles of backlog are shrinking.
That and playing a new computer game with lots of frustration relief involved, helps.
Back happens.
