I'm trying to print some stuff out on my HP printer for my portfolio. Everything that is supposed to print purple is coming out blue. The only reference to such a thing on the HP forums has to do with CorelDraw and I can't find similar setting in Quark or Acrobat. I hate it when I know that something is not right and I don't have the resources or knowledge to fix it.

Driving last night really sucked. It was rainy/snowy. The whole night was behind because the manager let the assistant (that he has the crush on) try to run things. She let both of the day drivers go an hour early (around 4) and pizzas were over half an hour out the door before the 5 o'clock drivers even got there. The manager decided to take over when it was out of control. I absolutely hate delivering pizzas that were over 90 minutes old. I should've made alot more money than I did for the amount of runs I took. Oh, well.

Well, I had better get back to finding a solution for this printing.

Current mood: sore
After getting a major paper cut on one finger and stabbing one of my thumbs with an extremely sharp X-acto knife, I need to take a break from working on my portfolio. OW!!! The last thing I need is blood all over it.

After the big push I had trying to finish the damned portfolio on time and not making it, the last couple of days have been a big let down. Part of the problem is not having the money I need to buy stuff for this thing. I need to get this done ASAP so that I don't put it off until the weekend before I'm due to present again. I also am having trouble getting my printer to print purple. It's weird. I'll have to run up to school tomorrow and see if any of my teachers know what's going on.

It was a beautiful day today. It was in the 60s. Too bad it is supposed to snow again tomorrow. Booooooo!

I hope they catch the fucker that has been burning dogs on the West side of town. They should duct tape his legs together and set him on fire.

I can hardly wait until next week. I'm finally getting to take my web classes. WhooHoo!!!!

Well, since I can't type worth crap with band-aids on my fingers, I'm going to bed.

Current mood: tired
Well, I didn't give my presentation today. What's stupid is some people presented with less than I had ready. I really didn't think the school president was pleased with what he saw. Definitely not one of the better portfolio presentations that the school has seen. I get an "F" until I present my stuff. I now have until April 27th to do that. Certainly my financial situation will improve by then. At least I'm halfway done. I am soooo tired. Even though I went to bed at 1 a.m., by 4 I was wide awake. I wish I could call in to work and try to get some sleep. This insomnia of mine is getting ridiculous.

Current mood: gloomy
Portfolio presentations are tomorrow. I give up. I'm not going to make it.

Current mood: stressed
ARGH, it's Friday the Thirteenth!

T-3 and counting. Only three days to get my portfolio done. I'm taking a tiny little break at the moment. I might make it. We'll know for sure on Monday morning.

They were testing a low-carb crust at work the other day. I refused to eat it. Everyone else that tasted it said they might as well have eaten cardboard. Am I the only one totally sick of this low-carb crap? I mean, I know too much of anything is bad and reducing the amount of processed carbohydrates that one eats is probably a good thing, but doesn't low-carb mean you're supposed to eat meat/protein? It can't be healthy to eat all of this fake stuff to make you think you're eating the stuff you like. It reminds me of the low-fat craze a few years ago. Now people have health problems because they didn't eat enough fat.

I need to go fix my pants for work. Wednesday really sucked. Not only was it relatively slow, I couldn't find someone's house and it was snowing, but I fell on somebody's driveway and ripped my pants. I can't afford to get new ones since I only made $19 that night and still have junk to get for my portfolio.

OK, break is over. Back to work.
