expérimenter avec le romarin frais

I am almost positive that is incorrect French but hey free translation tool online. Anyway I got a Rosemary bonsai for Vday and I decided to try out a few sprigs on my normal super good and cheap baked chicken wing entree. Hope it turns out yummy!

What is the point

As most of you know I bitch and moan about my job situation all the time. I wouldn't do this if 1. My setup wasn't GHETTO. I have a what could be nice G5 mac if it was updated to at least the last year of mac greatness or how about not the oldest OSX (10.2)that isn't supported by ummm ANYTHING current. (aka the printer they have for me to use). 2. In order to print I have to play musical computers which luckily doesn't take but about 5 min but seriously I should not have to do this. You know actually I think I like taking down a monitor, keyboard, mouse and tower anytime I need to print or wait anytime I need to attempt to do anything graphical or photo related on the Mac (NOT). And nope never heard a response from head honcho on if I could just work at home and come when they need me to pick up things since I do have the issue of incompatible file formats. So yes I do get paid to literally sit here and do things like blog and browse the internet because there is absolutely nothing I can pretty much attempt to do efficiently. And yes for the most part there would be down times when working at home, but at least there I can actually get renaming of all my files and reorganizing to up to date stock in those down times. Not so much an option at the office because while musical computers is fun musical files is not. I did luck out and since the Mac has a too old version of Indesign that is not supported by Adobe anymore all the files I created while working at home I cannot open here so I'm happy with that (and no I didn't plan it that way).

Just in Case

You missed this during the Super Bowl and you have some glasses. Here is the Sobe commercial live in 3d.

Superbowl 43 in 3D!!!!!!

Apartment 73 in the RBC is the place to be for Superbowl 43. ( I swear I just realized all that rhymed as I typed it hehe!)

Seriously?

So I'm in Kmart the other day to pick up a few things for the kitchen and I'm walking by and out the corner of my eye I see the 50 calorie snack pack box with a dog on it and am like wtf (surely those low cal snack packs didn't have a dog on it). So I go back and yes they have low calorie snack packs for dogs. Seriously people don't get me wrong I'm all about the 100 cal packs for humans but dogs that is just comical.

I guess if you got a fat dogie this is the way to go. I say get you and the dog out moving and go for walks. Problem solved!

Correction

I stand corrected the Mac G5 mentioned in the previous post could not be 7 years old due to it not even being available until 03. It is however most definitely 5 years old and I still hate the POS. There is nothing you can say ETW to make me like it. Yes I'm sure with some fancy upgrades it could be king since it can take up to 8 gigs of RAM. I love my PC and other PCs and am happy to stick with them. Mac is dead to me DEAD you hear.

At your request Ms. Sparks

Attention: This is a bitch and moan blog entry.

So I've pretty much been working at the office for a month now. Twas fine while I was lugging my own machine back and forth since I had all the files and it was just way more convenient since they didn't really have something suffice for me to use at the office. But enough was enough with the draggin' all my equipment around especially when it rained 2 weeks straight. So now I'm stuck at the office with a 7 year old Mac G5 with only 512 megs of RAM and Photoshop 7 (which I always liked that version), Illustrator 10 (never really used) and Indesign 2.0 (never ever used). Wah Wah Wah!

I got all excited because I thought I was getting all new and shiny equipment with flames kickin' out the back with all it's newness and fanciness. Man that bubble was burst when other office person brings up getting me a computer and big boss man is all O I though she was gonna use the Mac. Now keep in mind i'm no Diva who demands new shit, but come on anyone who designs knows that you do not appreciate watching a wheel spin just to render a photo while trying to clean it up. So luckily the past couple of days I was only cleaning up photos which is no biggie. But i'm done with that now and tried to created a header for the SnS website out of Photoshop upon request of programmer and that did not go so well. Let's just say I honestly tried to make it work for 3 hours so I had a strong argument built as to why I need upgraded (preferably new) equipment.

Well in that 3 hours I felt stress I hadn't felt since pre press days and believe me I was not happy in fact I was in tears. It took me a flippin' hour to calm down and go talk to in office man about going home to finish work on my computer for the day. He was very understanding of my situation but had no clue of my tech speak. I told him that maybe if we put more RAM in the Mac that would help me out a bit. So he calls their computer guy (who is more of a phone system man) to tell him that I knew exactly what type of RAM and that it was the same as a PCs and that I had installed the RAM in the macs at my previous job so I knew what I was talking about. Well computer/ phone dude did not believe me which I had the feeling he would not. He thinks that Mac & PCs are completely different beast and Mac has foreign parts.

So today I get to start all over again and my nerves are already getting to me and I don't want to go to work today at all but have to since they want me in office. Please please let the Mac demons tear up my POS Mac today for good.
