I finally got sized for a ring today. Apparently there are quarter sizes, but most places have the ring measuring things for half sizes. I think my right ring finger (the one on which I wear my class ring) is like a half size bigger than my left ring finger. Weird.
Met with my BeFriend mentee this evening after that, so got home kind of late. Then got a reminder email telling me my July report is 2 weeks overdue. Oops… Spent about a half-hour writing that up, watched some tv, and now I’m off to bed. That’s about it for tonight.

I think I’ve been blogging too much because I’m out of non-work stories. Instead, you can read about the guy at work who is pissing me off.
New guy: I need to add this compartment.
me: It’s already in the file, but you would add it like the other compartments I just showed you.
New guy: It’s not in there.
me: It should be… It would be listed under [this general area].
New guy: No, I looked.
Ok, are we in kindergarten now? “Yes it is.” “No it isn’t.” “Yah huh.” “Nuh uh!”
I’m absolutely certain it’s already in there because I edited it the day before.
me: Yes it is.
*tell him exactly which line it’s on*
New guy: Well, I didn’t see it.
Clearly. But why argue about it? “I looked, but didn’t see it. Would you show me where it is?” Arguing and telling me that you looked isn’t telling me that you tried. It shows me that you’re really bad at reading or that you didn’t actually look in the first place and you’re now just trying to convince me that you were working instead of goofing off.
Like I said last time, I don’t care if you’re goofing off. Just don’t question my memory.
