Nonsequittal Rumblings

1) I woke up this morning just a bit later than I really should have. 2) I hate meetings thare are scheduled before 9:00 AM on Mondays.
So, those 2 things combined… I left home a little rushed this morning. I did come into work on time, so that wasn’t too big of a deal. (A bit more on this matter later.) Because I was in rush, I forgot something: I forgot to grab the cell phone when I left home. That means I couldn’t talk with Emily all morning. Well, things happens sometimes, and it’s not toooooo big of a deal. I did call her once this morning using my work phone. I kept it short, and it’s all fine and dandy.
Problem arose when I went home for lunch. I told Emily that I came home, so I could talk to her. Which is the truth and all. Well, actually, I had 2 more reasons, but those are just side effects – One, I wanted to check on the status of file transfers I initiated this morning; two, I wanted to start seeding files on bittorrent.
So what did I do? I actually didn’t really get talk to her until the end of the lunch hour – I called her as I was leaving home again. Ack! Shame on me! I really should have called her earlier! I’m sorry, Emily!

Back to the meeting…
This guy called a meeting. He sent out the meeting details over e-mail. A standard practice. All fine and dandy… except he didn’t specify the meeting location. He just said “TBD.” To be decided, right? So I just waited all last week for the update on the info, so I’d know where this meeting would be.
The update never came. The reason I came in to work slightly early this morning is so I could check my e-mail to see if he sent the update at the last minute… Nope. None. Zip. Zero. Zilch… I woke up early, rushed to leave home, forgot my cell phone, and all that stuff… for nothing?! *sigh*

For the first time in almost 3 months, I finally was able to bring my daughter, Evan, to my apartment. The last time I had her was the weekend after Thanksgiving. Phew. It was good to be able to spend a whole weekend with her, instead of just spending half a day with her, which is what I did during January. Things just didn’t work out in December, and I got sick in February. Meh.
I took her to the Exploration Place on Saturday. Evan gave me the annual membership for it as Christmas gift this year. I was hoping it would be lots of fun… We just couldn’t find ourselves with the kind of fun we were expecting. I just don’t know what went wrong… Hrm.
The return trip to take Evan back to her mom was interesting… we hit a few hail storms while we were on the turnpike. Riiight… it had to happen today. Sure. But it wasn’t too bad this time. The last time we hit the hail storm, the car actually got a few hail damages. Not this time. The hail never got really big. No bid deal. It was just a bit loud sometimes. That’s all…
Good news: she loves Emily!

On the fansub side of my life… Yay! We had a Feb 29 release! We only get to do this once every 4 years. So that actually felt pretty cool. The new tracker is working good for us. Yup, I like hosting our own tracker. I can make tweaks and stuff to my stats page, etc. Yup. I like tweaking things.
