Kinda Stressful Friday
Oct. 6th, 2017 11:32 pmWork was all about trying to finish off those rosters so they could be sent out to be updated, and -- well, we did what we could. At the very least, they all had the same columns in the end, even if I couldn't spend the time properly sorting out the information like I wanted to. There was just too many rosters in general, and too many that were in pretty cruddy shape. Missing titles, deceased people still listed, addresses written incorrectly. . . It was just too much, even for three people on the case. *sigh* Well, there's still quite a few that are going out in pretty decent shape. Hopefully that'll help us avoid the dreaded duplicates.
And then, coming home -- well, traffic out of the city wasn't too bad, but traffic in TOWN was something else again. Another guy turned right in front of me while I was trying to get through a light (to be fair, though, I had stopped for a moment to make sure I could squeeze past said light and not block the intersection -- sometimes it's tricky to tell). And once we got home, we found another bug infestation right on our front steps, which required Mom and Dad to go out and get some fresh bug-killing stuff. I don't know what sort of bugs they were -- desperately hoping not termites. Wouldn't that be a kick in the teeth. . . Keep your fingers crossed, people.
Fortunately, the day hasn't been all doom and gloom. I got to watch the second episode of Dirk Gently with minimal interruption. Good stuff -- again, I've seen a lot of it from YouTube clips, but there was a good amount of new material. I now understand why no one talks about the FBI guys -- they're basically only in this one episode, and they're kind of jerks. Still feel sorry for what happens to one of them, though. . . Episode 3 tomorrow, barring major complications!
As I'm on a DGHDA kick, I naturally did a new snippet for one of my DG AUs for my writing -- Barkis features, and he certainly gets his. *nods* The rest of the evening has been largely catching up on websites and doing queues -- I'm up to the first half of Sunday with my main tumblr, and I just finished my ValiceMultiverse one (funtimes with my Forgotten Vows Victor encountering a more canonical one). So fairly productive, I guess. Still gotta answer a bunch of stuff, but I'm getting there.
Ending on a birthday shoutout to my friend![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
martyfan -- hope you're having a good one! Certainly a better Friday than I had, anyway. At least now I get four days off (even if one of them is for the dentist). Time to finish up my rounds -- night all!
