always a surprise

people, i mean... so the doctor's note that was demanded stated three days and so i was sent home cuz today is the third day... so the demand that i be back at work with a doctor's note from the ceo backfired on both him and me cuz i have a ton of work piled up on my desk and tomorrow is the first of the month and whether on purpose or not, the pattern of undermining continues... oh well, i'm home now and i'll leave the stress behind...

meanwhile, on wall street, that stock etrade would not let me buy at it's closing price of 1.45 closed today at 1.95 and opened this morning at 2.00... i was able to get 200 shares at 1.80 so i made back the brokerage charge and made a few dollars anyway... if only i wasn't so lazy (and not feeling wekk) earlier in the week, i'd have been able to pick it up around 1.20... it's been down to around 0.50 and up to 4.00 in the past year, but it's one of those instinctive lottery-ticket stocks i hope will take off... it's not as it i make much money on the market, but i sometimes like to buy a stock... of course it can go up or down at any given moment and for me, it's just a game and time will show how this game plays out...

and now, maybe a nap :)

musical distractions

If people had visible signs or meters that told something about them, what would you want it to tell you?

dumb poll (above), smart responders

all the previous poll votes were somehow erased, so, nevermind... ironically or coincidentally or whatever, the results were very close in practical numbers to the results above shown with just three votes, if you understand the mathematics behind that extrapolative reasoning... i will probably remove the poll at some point... it is a ridiculously useless feature...

SEARCH ME

the thing is, with my tendency to babble and meander and whine and allow distraction to take the lead more often than not, even in this blog that sort of meant to merge brevity with focus like some bloggers do, searching for key words does not always lead to specific information about the subject of that key word... but... here is a start at an easy way to search for key words in this blog... use the search box at the top of the blog to search for words not listed here... if ya wanna, that is... and feel free to suggest words to add to this search shortcut section... click on the words below :)

WORK ... JOB ... MUSIC ... LOVE ... SOFTBALL ... KA ... 42 ... LOL ... LAM ... LAA ... ... ...
