One day closer to becoming s total recluse...

Have you ever had one of those days where you just wonder where exactly you made the wrong turn in life to end up sitting behind this particular desk dealing with these particular people?  Wondering what fucking bet you lost to deserve this?  

IT people out there don't have to answer - I know you understand.  Every so often I'll read about a Pollyanna IT chastising the venters, ranters, and champion eye rollers for bad attitudes.  Yeah, those people have been in IT less than 10 minutes or lying.  If not I'm sure I'd have heard of their canonization by now.  It was one of these days...

because...yeah.

So this becomes painfully true.

Which is why I feel no guilt about my current mindset...

Distraught, yes, but not guilty.

But do you know why I will never change fields?  Besides the love of the puzzle, chasing the hard earned victories, and the fact that within my circle of friends computers and devices outnumber people 50:1?  Because this joke will never NOT be funny!

I may be a bean counter, but at my last job my cube was surrounded by programmers and IT folks.  One of them, when he was on help desk duty, would read some of the help desk emails out loud.  (one of them 6-7 years later is still with me, I ran a query and selected do not run and it did not run).  You have my sympathies.

      Not a fundie- but the other day a Michigan state rep tweeted a picture of a couple buses leaving the Detroit airport, wondering where the “illegal invaders” were being bussed to.

      The “illegal invaders” were the Gonzaga men’s basketball team, who had just arrived in Detroit for their regional semifinal matchup.

      Dude gets exposed and his response is basically, “STFU you communist.”

      He’s also an election denier who has predicted another civil war.

      Erica has two associations for me. One is Erika Shupe, and the other is that it was the name of the “Brown Owl” of my Brownie Guides group when I joined. Brown Owl is the traditional name given to the main leader of a Brownie unit here in the UK. I remember she always had her hair in a single long plait down her back.

      We use Brown Owl for the main leader in Canada too and Tawny Owl for second in command. 

      I am a Brown Owl! In Ireland, but was also a Tawny Owl in the UK. I love being Brown Owl and the whole story that goes with it.

      i think she announced it’d be Amaree,

      My guess was Arrow Canaan on the Baby Names Thread. Her boy names follow an ACC pattern & don't have cutesy spellings. Since there's not much with the aforementioned pattern, that's what lead me to my guess.

      I don’t think she announced it on her social media yet. I think she might’ve let it slip when ordering something with the baby’s name on it.

      Gotcha.  I don’t follow her but see reddit posts about her and couldn’t remember where I saw the name.

      If it is Amaree, it’s the first “non-noun as a name” name for awhile, right,  I can’t remember them all—anchor, armor, anthym, aynjel, are the four I remember that are other words.  Then andre, arissa (is is anissa?), anniston (i will never be convinced it’s not after jennifer anniston).  So I’m missing 3.   

      Anyway, lucky kid gets a normal name if it’s amaree
