Here's my horoscope from my email inbox today:

I'm glad to know my mood today is not my fault, it's in the stars.

Current mood: blah
I don't know what's wrong with me today. I'm not really tired, just here.

The food delivery service we use delivered baker's flour (like cake flour) to one of the stores instead of the hi-gluten flour (bread flour) that we use to make dough. Of course, I didn't notice until I was throwing the empty bags away. I guess the dough is going to be rising funny towards the end of the week. They're supposed to come pick up the rest of the wrong stuff and bring the right flour. If not, no dough being made tomorrow. Can you tell I really care?

It's quite windy again today. My allergies are loving that.

Poor Marcus got stuck at work for over 14 hours yesterday. The advertising department's sever took a major dump. He said the advertising departmenthad to go home today while they fix this. I can't understand why they don't have a backup server set up to take over in cases such as this. I don't know enough about WinNT to know if it can do that. I know they're in the process of switching over to Win2K and I know it has that capability. I'll have to ask him about that when he gets home.

We didn't get much done in Unix class today. We're still having hard drive problems. Argh! Not only that, but there is not enough install disks, so we have to take twice as much time as needed to get anything done. Half the class gets to sit while the other half the class does the excercise. Pain in the butt. It's Unix, it's open source, copy some more damn cd's.

Well, I'm making meat loaf for dinner and it's almost done, so I better get cracking on the sides. I'll bring you some, Dad!

I want to post something on Marcus' board to tell those idiots what I think of them, but at the same time I don't want to stoop to their level and be part of the problem. Dang me for having a conscience.

The weirdest wind storm came up while I was driving home from school today. It was like driving in a blizzard of fallen leaves. Except for the fact that all the dust that was stirred up triggered an allergy attack, it was really cool.

I didn't totally lose my cleaning mood. Just cleaned all the dead food out of the fridge (yuck!) and took the trash out. Man, I'd keep cleaning if I didn't have to go to work tomorrow. Dang.

Current mood: disappointed
Why are there so many miserable people in the world with pathetic little lives who feel the need to ruin things for everyone? I've been a spectator to all the cattiness going on in blogworld. I thought it was only women pulling this shit. Unfortunately, men are just as bad. My boyfriend has a messageboard on his site where he and his friends can exchange information, etc. Recently a couple of people have been flaming everyone else. It got so bad that the board became a medium only for flinging insults and they were getting totally out of hand. Marcus decided he had to draw the line and start removing these type of posts. They had to go a ruin a perfectly good forum for everybody else. Now the only posts are people making fun of Marcus for his decision. What a bunch of losers. I'm really angry that these are supposed to be Marcus' friends and they're acting like this. I'd hate to see how they'd be if they were enemies.

I was just playing hangman. Dang that was hard. I didn't get one single word right. I'm usually pretty good at games like that. I'll be going there againwhen I have more time.
