Porthole into my life

So.
The world is a strange place.
I know that this is no surprise to many of you but it's a very odd place.
My debit card expires the end of this month. An automatic payment was suppose to go in sometime around now and because of the holiday I checked to see if it was in yet. Normally I can check the account on-line. It's fast, impersonal, and service time independent. Got a 'can't process this at this time' from the site when I tried to log-in. Called. The card will still work (JOY) but on-line log-on will not be available until the card they mailed TODAY gets to me.
Amazon.com where I looked up a book reference is running slow. So is another place I had to call today referencing money. (don't ask unless you won the lottery and are tired of having it clutter up your life, then call me). I changed,by neccesity, one after another, 99 tags on a community site last night(early this morning- too early, don't ask). I think I might be responsible for computer systems crashing nation wide because of that, Lj runs the world doesn't it.
I've recently written a sweet non-porn drabble that many liked. I've written a terrible dub-con drabble. The municipal tap water no longer tastes of algae and maybe we won't need to buy drinking water.
The World is a very odd place right now/ coming to an end OR I need more sleep and the allergy pills need to kick in NOW!

Date: 2011-07-07 06:29 am (UTC)Your very storm is totally understandable. I read your post about how much sleep you've had or rather haven't had. Tag changes aren't all that different from what I have to do at school on the circulation cataloge to differentiate one school from the other. We use to be able to filter students using 3 criteria and have those three layer. New program let's us choose one filter and only one. I have to hand select and tag students to create the filter for the Middle School students. Usually I have days to work on it. So other than being loopy from allergies and lack of sleep, the re-naming of tags was .. okay AAAaaaack.
Make you a deal. I'll sleep if you sleep.
