and things went downhill from there

I'm going to start off the new year all angsty and complaining. 

• To celebrate having finally shaken the cold I caught for MFF, I caught another cold for the new year.


• I slipped on the ice outside Tim Horton's this morning and landed hard.  Ow.  I was sure I'd either cracked or sprained something.


• I can't get the PDA to recognize our Exchange server at work.


• The director is playing fast and loose with some delivery deadlines.

Since I don't want to leave things in imbalance, here is some counterpoint.

• This cold seems to be much less severe.  Aside from a bit of stuffiness and a headache, I'm feeling much better today.


• I hobbled around for awhile and eventually shook it off.  It still hurts a bit, but nothing more than my pride appears to be damaged.


• I gave up trying to configure it and just told it to go ahead and sync.  Lo and behold, it updated my contacts and calendar entries.  Hmph.


• He let his eagerness to see this project impair his better judgement.  The gentle voice of reason won out in the end.

Two hours in and that's my day so far.
