Some days suck

And this was one of them.

As a friend would have said, today sucked ass. Dirty, unwashed, ass.

My friend that is in the hospital (G), is doing better. We are hopeful for improvement, and that is something.

I'm feeling aweful. Got a cold last weekend, thought I had it fought off, then the asthma kicked in. A couple of nights of no sleep, and I'm out on my ass. Lots of people at work and church are sick too (no, I haven't visited with all of them, so it's not me!). It doesn't help that the weather can't decide on 40 and raining or 20 and windy. We got a nice coating of ice on everything last night. Oh joy.

A customer at work bitched about a fix we (really, I) made to something. It was a fix that is specifically made to keep people like her out of trouble, and all she could think of was how inconvenient a reboot in the morning was to her. When we don't take the initiative, we get slammed, and when we do, we get slammed. Once in a while, I wish they would unionize all of the tech people and have us walk out for a few days.

But the really bad news was about my friend's son. He is a physical adult, whose disability makes him mentally more like a child. He suffers frequent seizures, and is on more medication than I realized existed. He has gotten sick, and is suffering a lot of side affects, including an increase in seizures. He is in hospital, and probably will be for a while. His parents are people that are special to me, so those of you praying, please add them and their son to the list.

(sigh) It's getting to be a long list.
