The Ups and Downs of Being a Female Computer Geek
July 15, 2005

I actually did a lot of work today, but mainly all for one office.  I had to upgrade 3 PCs to Office 2003, and I figured I'd be done with it in like an hour or so..  It ended up taking 4 and a half....  Basically they all were running Pentium 3 PCs with Windows 2000 and hadn't run updates from Microsoft in a VERY long time.  I had to run a bunch of Microsoft updates before Office 2003 would even install and then, of course, I ran all the updates from the Microsoft Office website too..  So it was rather boring sitting there waiting and waiting for things to download and install on some, rather old, machines.  I did get them all working with the new software though and I think the office workers will be pleased.  Atleast I did the smart thing and decided to schedule this upgrade on a day where they were all gone. . .  So I had the office to myself.

I skipped lunch today becuase of my work on the afformentioned computers, so instead, I will get off an hour early.  I love Fridays.  Mainly because I get the weekend off.

Well, hopefully Sean S. will come visit tonight as he has promised.  I am really looking forward to seeing him again.  He has work today so he won't be off till 9pm, but I still hope he gets to visit me.
