I have been waiting two days for a delivery, and I just now got a phone call from the delivery company saying that they "tried to deliver" it both yesterday and today. I have been here both days at the time she said they were here. Today I thought I heard a doorbell but when I went to the door no one was there-- and I checked both doors. They didn't leave me an "attempt to deliver" note, either. WTF? Tomorrow I'm leaving a note on the door saying that they can leave it at the door or at the office. Idiots.

grrrr, part 2
Nov. 8th, 2006 07:39 pmWell, it would maybe be a "grrr" if I had the energy. I'm working on the paper that I've been all excited about but I've had a migraine for days now and it's wearing on me. Plus the fact that I've passed "informed" and "immersion" and gone straight to "sick and tired" of the topic. I'm sure it'll come back and I'll feel the love again but right now, not so much.
I haven't been totally useless today. I've gotten several pages written (okay, let's not go so far as "several" but I'll definitely claim "a few.") Also did some background/prep work for a smaller project that's due the 17th, and for which I need to go to Duke Medical Library on Friday.
I suppose I might ought to be working on That Damned Paper, which is due two days before the one I've been working on. Sigh. At least I have 3 of the 5 final exam questions answered for that class. Of course, they are the easy three, leaving the harder two for later. Yeah, like "later" is going to help. The final and That Damned Paper are both due the 18th, AND we are supposed to give a brief oral presentation of the conclusions of our papers that day too. Believe me, I am NOT spending any time doing a Power Point presentation with handouts of that puppy. I do not want this thing immortalized any more than it has to be to get a grade.
I've also been a wee bit distracted today with all the happy political news. And Mother called to see if I was excited and almost forgot to tell me that Daddy may be going home in a week and a half or two weeks-- in other words, before Thanksgiving. W00t! (Except do I have time to go back to KY for Thanksgiving? I do have other papers due after this batch is in. I'll worry about that tomorrow.) And of course,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
harleenquinzell's news made me happy, too. Yay! All sorts of good news today.
Now if this damned headache would quit. And the package would get delivered. And I could get a flash of inspiration for That Damned paper. Bitch, bitch, bitch.
