A Whole Lot of Nothing
I'm bored. Have I ever mentioned that about 80% of the time I am at work I am bored out of my mind! When the phones don't ring and no one comes in and the filing is all caught up, there's not a damn thing to do but sit here and surf the net or read a book. But, not the INTERnet folks, the INTRAnet. Which is strictly monitered by someone in the corporate office. You wouldn't believe the sites that are considered inappropriate for associate viewing. It's recockulous! I always picture someone sitting in front of a computer hacking into all of our computers and nosing about. "Hey you, in the corporate office, how do I get your job? I can be nosey too!" And how is it that they determine what is appropriate? I have attempted to get on a site only to get the "Attention: this site is inappropriate for company use" message and then turn around and go to another site with the same content and get in no problem. Hmmm...I wonder if their mood that day had anything to do with it? On that note, after this post I may want to start getting my resume out there or get alot of books, I may be restricted from this INTRAnet entirely!
I just finished reading Dan Brown's book "Angles and Demons." Awesome read! I highly recommend it. I have also read his book "Digital Fortress," also great, and I have just started "The DaVinici Code." No, I haven't seen the moving and I won't until I read the book. Books are always better than the movies.
And now my friends, I'll tell you why I think I'm a bit of an odd duck. After finishing my book this morning, I sat here at my desk and my mind began to wonder. I suddenly found myself thinking about our 6 cats and our dog. What about them? Well, I was thinking about what a great children's story or movie I could write about them. Including, each of their personalities, how they would talk, interact, etc. I had all these silly little scenerios in mind, complete with dialect.
Yep, I'm a dork and I have waaaay too much time on my hands!! Happy Hump day!!!
