Somebody please shoot me so I don\’t have to while sitting in Kinko\’s, awaiting the hourglass in front of me to turn back into an arrow, notifying that the file I started uploading an hour ago to a distant server has finally gotten its ass in gear and \”done its thing\”.
Or at least bring me something to eat. And some spare contacts. These glasses seem to be doing more damage to my eyes than good.
File uploads? ripped contacts? ill-timed hunger pains? Yes, a complicated backstory exists here, but please don\’t ask me to tell it. I\’m trying to move on with my life.
UPDATE: Okay, \”said hourglass\” finally made it\’s transformation, but unfortunately it brought a friend with it: Error Message. His message was something to the effect of, \”Try again, moron.\”
Ughh…
UPDATE #2: Okay, since I\’m still waiting, and since this post has already spun bizarrely out of control and is now ununderstandable to anyone still reading it, I don\’t feel out of line sharing with you that I now have to pee. This means I can either A) leave my laptop unattended and hope it\’s still here when I return, B) take it with me and ignore the looks and possible voiced comments about how I need to look at \”that kind of stuff\” on my own time in my own home, or C) hold it.
Well, I suppose there\’s always option D…
Yeah, yeah. Another UPDATE: Well, good news. I\’m about to go home. However, the bad news is that I still didn\’t get the file uploaded. But no worries: I\’m just taking it a sign that I should home right now, curled up with a six-pack.
See ya!
