What's with Blogger

Today I tired to view my blog and I got a popup that asked if I wanted to save or open the file?! So I tried to open with internet explorer and that didn't work, I tried save, but that just wanted to download my blog to my PC. This is my next test, to create a new post, republish this blog, and then see if I can view it.
It is so warm today. It is going to be upper 60's outside and it is at least 75 where I am sitting. I think I outfoxed our maintenence guys though, I wore a sleeveless shirt with a sweater over it. I came prepared.
At lunch I will be missing my Yoga class to shop for little black dress shoes. I bought some for my daughter (without taking her to the store) tried them and they don't fit so I must make another attempt. She has a musical performance for school coming up and it would be nice if she could dress up. I am wondering now how many little black dress up shoes I have purchased thus far. We got a size 12 handed down to us, but they are platform shoes!!! I would like to meet the genius who thought this was a good idea for a child of six or seven. I am a holdout on this, NO HEELS!! I was a bout 10 when I got a pair of shoes with a "heel" and really they had a sole that was thick and the heel was only slightly higher than the sole. I remember them so well. They were wooden with a triangle cut out of the heel (very 70's) the rest was like a leather sandal. Boy did I think I was cool. My next ones were wedges with cork heel/sole (very back in fashion now).
Well let's see if i can get my blog back in action...

Blah

When I awoke to hear Rick Springfield singing Jessie's Girl on my alarm clock this morning, I thought perhaps it was an omen. This will surely be a great day. Maybe I set myself up for a fall. My mood is not that good, and physically I don't feel well either. Some of this has to due with my PMS or my PMDD or whatever you'd like to call it. Parts of me have been aching for days. I really hate that. Sometimes I wish I was a man. Partly though I am feeling odd in the gut region. Not really bad or sick just off. This only worries me because two of my close coworkers have had the barfs this week. This morning Luke had to leave due to flu. I ate lunch with him yesterday and spoke briefly with him this morning, lets face it, I've been exposed. Besides which Vern came to work yesterday after his bout with it. I could tell by his flushed complexion he was still a bit feverish, and he only began eating again this morning. I've been super exposed. I'm hoping that it is psychosomatic, but if you read the definition of that word, I suppose everything is. After learning I'd been exposed, that's when I noticed the hinky feeling in the pit of my stomach. I hope I'm not getting sick, don't want to infect the youngins. Also I have a date Saturday night to see a movie. Dates and movies have been rather sparse in my life since the birth of my first child. Not complaining, that is the way of life and I choose to spend most of my free time with those sweet, intelligent offspring. But a date sounds good and so does that Zodiac movie, so flu, be gone, stay the hell away from me!

Work has been so rough this year. As you know Heather retired in favor of full time motherhood. I am jealous, and lonely but also overwhelmed. Another coworker left the group and that left only me to do this type of work I do. We hired someone who is doing quite well, but after 6 mos. she is no match for someone with 10 years in. Still I am so glad she is hear, and willing to take on new things and learn. I spend some of most days helping or guiding her along though, and that is taxing too, especially when working on three or four jobs. And as you saw, I had to travel last week, which was not good, not fun, not productive. I just feel tired, tired of work, tired of being tired. This is way way whinier than I pictured it (even after titling it Blah). Sorry but maybe that is the only reason I wrote it. Or perhaps it is because all of my usual lunch buddies were unavailable and I decided to stay here at lunch and snack from the vending machine... Not sure.

I have tons of work to do before I leave today so I guess I'll get back to it. I haven't felt too bloggy these days. If I'd had Internet access for the duration of that trip I'd have blogged more, but alas, it was not to be. Free time at work has become almost unheard of, so it will most likely be awhile.
