Wow, record low for me today.

It's been a bad testing day. The system seemed to sense when all the techy guys were absent and decided to crash/fail/throw random errors.

All we could do was diagnose the illness ("Yep, that's what's wrong") and sympathize with the poor support people dealing with all the customers ("Dude, that sucks!"), but we couldn't do a darn thing to fix the problem ("Check back tomorrow, we might have it fixed by then").

What is support for when they can't fix the problem?? I suppose moral support is needed during computer issues (I know I've needed it often enough), but they (and we) would be seen as much more effective if they (and we) could say "Fixed!"

On a happier note, it's my dad's birthday today. I didn't get him a gift, or even get a card in the mail on time, but he appreciated the phone call and the e-card I sent. If people didn't love me for who I am, regardless of my procrastination issues, I don't think I'd have many friends.

Remember, if I'm late, then I like you. If I'm on time, then you can get suspicious!
