Who rested?
Filed Under Old Diary |
I remember some time ago, in a land far far away, there was a man (well, young man) who had a weekend off. Free from work! I am not this man.
9:00am, client rings me on the mobile. Is his laptop ready yet? That’s $35 for waking me up, and NO, it isn’t. So I get up and play with his laptop. Took me a while to find something wrong with it, but I did. So I tried my account on it and it went straight through and worked perfectly (of course). His account doesn’t seem to want to work. So I rang him. He has had his iNet account disabled. Nice one cretin! Right, that’s fixed then. Just get your account enabled and everything should work fine. Call me tomorrow if it doesn’t.
Rocked up at Dr. J.’s place at 12:00pm to be greeted by Santaclaus (ok, it was Dr. J. in a bathrobe). Oh, you weren’t serious about getting here at lunch time? Tough.
I locked my keys in the car. That kept me entertained while Dr. J. woke up.
Well, I then spent the next six hours writing ASP code to get an advanced search page working. Thankfully I was taking it slow and easy, for I knew that while my brain and body were functioning neither was truly running at optimum speed.
Dinner wasn’t very exciting. I think I ended up eating a tin of two fruits (pear and peach cubes) and (later) a pastie. All hail the pastie packet! It’s too hot to make anything, even if I had anything to make something with.
