It's Friday night and I'm still at work!!!

So I have some free time on my hands so why not use it to post my complaints to the interwebs. It's Friday, Good Friday mind you. I'm stuck at work late again this week, but unlike the rest of the week, I'm not actually working. I'm stuck sitting here in my office waiting for someone else to finish doing their job so I can go home. Here is some background, we have a broken computer here at work and while yes it is technically my job to fix broken computers, but this one is just a royal pain. So, I called computer support from the manufacturer which will remain nameless because I actually like them and I'm not trying to dis them, just the guy they sent out to do the repair.

Long story short, there is a dead power supply that turned out to be waaayyy to much of a pain to remove so I called to have it replaced instead. Oh, and I had to call them back anyways because the power supply they sent as the replacement was missing a connector on the end of the wires!! Just bare wires is all I got in the box! So I needed another one anyway so I had them send a tech as well so they could deal with the mess. Well, now I'm paying for that anyway. He has been here for nearly 3 hours and just told me he is about half way done!! OMFG!! I know I was passing the buck here on the work, but sheesh it's Friday!! I want to go home!!!!
This is what the computer looked like at about the half way point...


In the time I've had to sit here, I have been productive though. I've figured out how to connect my cell phone to my computer and transferred all the pictures and videos I had off of it. And figured out how to remote control the audio player so I can play my music through my computer from my phone. I didn't even know I could do that :P

Caitlin is 3!!!

How has it been 3 years!! It was really wonderful having everyone here for the parties. Caitlin really enjoyed having two parties, what kid wouldn't! It's really a lot of fun now that she is bit older and really gets into the whole party thing. She loves presents and knows how to dive in and shred the paper to get at the good stuff inside :) She got a lot of really good toys and nice cards, but best of all was that she got to spend time with her grandparents and even her "great...grand...ma" as she says. And her cousin too. We will definitely have to all get back together again in the summer if we can. We can stay inside so we don't melt - haha. I have uploaded a ton of new pictures from the parties and a lot of other various pictures as well. I'll update the links when I get them, but for now just hit the link on the right to the family site and you'll get them. Enjoy the picts!!

The picture below isn't from the birthday party as I don't have any right now but I thought this one was awesome so I posted it here (It's a little grainy cause it's from my cell phone, but still cute).
