Today is the day

Yep - another anniversary 4th anniversary of my 39th year on this planet. Thus far the day has been quiet... on the total upside working from home pups are sleeping but its a dreary and gray day.

Yesterday was a long day I got in early, spent the morning in the usual Tuesday meetings, putzed about the day - then the last meeting of the day... well the entertainment factor was off the charts. We have a certain method to doing things - not that any of the code jockeys in Alabama follow them...well our customer nailed us very publicly about not following our steps. Boss was ticked.

We were, yesterday, having our regularly scheduled process meeting, and our problem child who wasn't at the meeting, supposed to be off, sent a message that the team had completed work that was just assigned that morning. And that had not been approved by our internal team yet... that pretty much sent the boss into the strapho-sphere of ticked off... and boy did us folks who's job it is it follow and enforce those rules enjoy the living daylights out of that...

Then this morning we had another meeting to discuss the issue - only the major problem child couldn't be bothered to attend. So we wondered what the point was... on the up side we were entertained by the boss shouting at his Teflon boy so that was something. Those of us who are in the know - realize that nothing will change. Except for a short period of time we will get to put the underling code jockeys in between their on site management, and the man who runs the project from a-far... Yeah so much is going to change.

Now stay tuned today boys and girls because I have a running bet that darling Bubba has forgotten what today is. His boss is in town, he told me Monday that today and tomorrow he will be home late; and there was no mention of anything this morning. We'll see. But then again I figure he'll come waltzing in tonight late with flowers from the grocery store... ;-) But hey he will remember... if not well stay tuned to Aunt Ing's visit to the jewelry store.

Debating what to do for lunch, I have to run some errands, I want a manicure and a pedicure, but my gal doesn't work Wednesdays... we'll see. Probably after my 2 pm meeting today I'll head out. yeah that sounds like a plan.

We'll talk later.

MAJOR EDIT....
Bubba got home - earlier than I thought he would... but as the boss had taken him and "the guys" out for drinks and munchies he wasn't hungry... He walked in very sheepishly - holding a card FROM THE NEIGHBORS.

Yes boys and girls - he forgot my birthday. Now in a typical therapy session we would go on and on about how hurt and unhappy we are. Screw that... I'm ticked and now make a vow to nag him into next year so this won't happen again--- and don't you think I won't email him tomorrow as his fanny better come home with something in his hands... that ain't the evening mail.

Now - Mom did counsel that unless reminded the male of the species did tend to forget such things... it's on the calender - which he never looks at - as it is in a room he rarely uses for anything except dumping dirty glasses into. But I digress into oober cranky and frankly I want to save that for Sr. Butthead. Well like I said - he won't forget again... he will receive reminders via every electronic and non-electronic method available to me... idiot man. Off to bed - and I'm going to snuggle up with a good romance novel where the men are made up and the women aren't in their 40's.
