don't pick seventeen

see, that would be my strategy if i was on deal or no deal, but then, that doesn't mean i'd win anything, it only means i like the number seventeen... and twenty two... and nine and three if i am limited to twenty two choices... of course i'd hold on to forty two and fifty fifve if i had more choices... keep in mind i have never won the lottery, but then, i only bought maybe a dozen tickets in this life... so if my mumber ever won, i'd probably miss it...

meanwhile, life at work was busy but little got done because the computer systems were up and down and they were still working on why when i left... there was a lightning strike very close because one of the main electric panels was blown off, but the computer lines were hit and miss... i was lucky that mine worked for most of the day, but the line to the network printer did not work so i couldn't print what i needed to print (and i don't have the multiple screens set up yet, so i never really got rolling and then there were five investigations from over the weekend and the person assigned to them needed hand holding for the umpteenth time and come to think of it there was a webinar for two hours in the morning and i got to watch half of it before the network cut it off and i couldn't get back in...

wait, as if that wasn't enough to go wrong, when i got out to my car i found someone hit it while it was parked and the side headlight is cracked and side panel dented... of course there's no insurance from the hospital, so i'm stuck for the bill when i get around to fixing it... like i have time... the worst thing is it's still raining, ten days in a row, so having a cracked headlight and driving around to find a place to fix it in the rain is yet another challenge today threw at me...

some days it just doesn't pay to wake up, aye? :}
