plunkybugTo my lj friends:
I emailed some of you this already, but for the benefit of those I don't have email addresses for, I will repeat it here. The bastards at work have decided to block the lj site (among many others). This means I cannot update or check my friends list during the day like I normally would. I know it is not my computer only, as I tested the ones around me, and![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
phishtails found out the same thing and he sits in a different part of the office/floor. Anyhow, I can reply to comments via email but can't see them afterward. For now. I don't know how long this block will last, and I say this because the blocks never last, but it might be a different program now and it might stick for a while. Of course, with all the lockdowns, there are plenty of people trying to get around it. I ran into some people who have hacked into our new machines...the super locked down ones. The ones with no calculator, word pad, notepad, or command line, without most of the control panel contents, no right clicking, no control+alt+delete to end crashed programs...they designed special programs to terminate the ones that are prone to crashing on a regular basis, shall I go on? Lets just say that life on the newer, better machines still sucks major ass!
On the happier side, we just got back from having birthday dinner with the folks. I how I love free dinners! Though,I do feel terrible for all the little baby lobsters who gave up their little tails for my meal tonight. Almost makes me want to go back to being a vegetarian thinking about it.
Well, going to read up on what I have missed all day.
