I'm slowly adjusting to the bifocals. I only catch myself going "...the hell?" ten or so times a day, rather than every couple of minutes. I was worried that I would have problems using my Optivisor in Jewelry class, but so far, so good. My new Ray-Bans sunglasses are very stylin', and finally have a current prescription.
After an epic IM conversation that involved a lot of checking files into and out of Perforce, doing many horrible things to FrameMaker files, index re-creation, and figuring out how to paste Japanese text into IM, I got one of my Documents From Hell mostly done. My Japanese counterpart did an amazing job, and if her colleagues had explained to me last Monday what she had been doing before plopping her into my cube for training, I think we'd have this thing put to bed by now. A couple of hours of working together would have saved us a lot of time today. (And she was horribly jetlagged, so she decided to take a shower, get online and get this thing taken care of. From Japan. I luff her to bits.) I now await a lengthy email in the morning.
I sure hope I feel better in the morning. I've avoided the various plagues and pestilences that have crawled over my company these last few weeks...but today I have a sore throat and chills. With any luck it's something minor, and coddling myself will terrify it into oblivion.
Now to catch up on TV. Maybe I should order Chinese food? Pizza?
