Entry for January 12, 2006

ImageI frequently get to work at home, since my supervisor and managers all know that concentration on database development is at time difficult.  I had mentioned Monday that a study was released that indicated there are on average 2.1 hours a day lost to interruptions, so my supervisor talked to the manager and here I am.  Only yesterday I had to go to work so we could take one of my coworkers out for lunch in celebration of his promotion. Now all of us on the staff are at the same classification level, myself and another woman being senior.  Back to my entry.


So after lunch, I decidied to go by the store and get Windows XP Pro, and upgrade my pc since it seemed to improve my laptops ability to recover from problems. What a mistake. I got hung up at the 33 minute remaong part and spent the rest of the day and early evening trying to debug the problem, which windows was saying is a hardware problem. Then today I thought,   'I have done all the diagnostics and everything checks fine, maybe I should just reinstall xp home, and see..."  Well, that went fine, and then I popped in the xp pro cd, and then went fine tooImage.  So now I have tomorrrow to do the work I promised I would have done by next week...and the only thing good about all this is ...a bad day away from the office is usually still more pleasant than a day at the office....Image
