Meeting yesterday with advertising firm we use. Was supposed to be &#8220;fun&#8221; according to my boss, was really just okay. The food was shite (mental note: don&#8217;t eatat the Garden Cafe in Hastings) and all I really did at the meeting was say &#8220;Why isn&#8217;t the website on that ad?&#8221; over and over. Fuck sake, what is the point of me busting my ass to put together a decent website when they don&#8217;t even bother to help me drive traffic to it? I mean, I could understand if I were doing this for, I dunno, one of my freelance jobs where they don&#8217;t have the budget for advertising, but I work for a hospital that has millions of dollars in the coffers, you&#8217;d think they could spare some change to put the fucking URL on print ads. Argh. No wonder the forums I added aren&#8217;t getting any use.<\/p>\n<p>Right now I&#8217;m watching the 200th episode of ER. It&#8217;s pretty good but I could really do without all the vomit. I don&#8217;t handle vomit well. Not even my own child&#8217;s. You know how they say (who THEY are, I have no idea) when you have your own child you can deal with their body functions and odors with no problems, but with me, vomit is a different story.  I don&#8217;t know if it&#8217;s the actual goops that hurls itself out of the body, or the involuntary wretching and *ugh* I&#8217;m making myself ill just writing about it. I think I&#8217;ll move on to the next topic.<\/p>\n<p>Which is ummmm&#8230; Heheh, I don&#8217;t know. Oh, dinner withbiodad tomorrow night. Should be fun, I&#8217;m looking forward to it. We&#8217;re going for Chinese and who knows what. Depends on the weather. It rained most of the day today and again I regretted that I had to spend the day cooped up in my windowless office. There is something about the rain that I just love. I love turbulent weather more than sunny days. I really am only happy when it rains. Such beautiful weather. I remember this one time, on a hillside&#8230; Well I&#8217;ll keep that to myself.  Thunderstorms. Thunderstorms are just&#8230; ohhh.. They thrill me.  Anyway, if it&#8217;s not rainy tomorrow night, we might take my daughter to the new park the city built, or just let her ride her bike around or something.<\/p>\n<p>Right ER&#8217;s over, I&#8217;m freezing (after being out in the rain to plant some flowers, I&#8217;m a bit nippy.) so my nice warm bed calls. night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What a weird week.
