On the power of mind and narcissism Apr 03 98 Haven't been very inspired lately. It would set a record to write four days in a row, but that would be expecting too much from me. Didn't do anything for April Fool's. I guess I'm still uninspired. Now I have to proofread and make corrections to the petroleum sites entries. Which is soo boring. The woman who's working with me on this has no composition creativity at all, so she just copies the text from the site. What makes some pretty crappy entries. Well, I'm not making new ones. Yesterday I had a demonstration of the power the mind has over the world. I arrived at work, and thought, hopelessly, "I don't want to work today!". It was Stupid-chat day, so I sit in front of the computer and tried to log in the chat. It didn't connect. At all. I checked with The-woman-who's-working-with-me-on-this, and she couldn't connect, either. So, after 45 minutes, she called the boss in Brasilia, and she said there wouldn't be a chat today. Resigned, I started correcting the entries. A few minutes later, the server in which we store the information crashed down. Half an hour later, the main server crashed, and we had no more Internet access. One hour later, the energy was cut from all the computers (and JUST the computers!). Besides that the CD I was listening to got trapped inside the computer, I had no complaints. One hour later, the energy hadn't come back yet, so I went home. And didn't do anything. Someone pitied me! I've had some ideas of a few new graphics to put on this page, so yesterday I let my narcissism run wild, bought a 12-frame roll of film and spent it all taking pictures myself. Which is pretty good. Today I scanned them at work, so now I just have to take them home and work on them to do what I had imagined. I still have to finish Jesse's graphics, though. My unexplained stuff alarm beeped. Explanation: I designed a homepage for Jesse (just the main one, actually), and sent it to him. He liked it a lot, but asked me to change a few things. So I have changed some, but not all. But I'll finish it soon. give me life give me pain give me myself again I love this song. |
