I'm off tomorrow for the Fourth holiday.
In preparation for being off I had planned some work today that I needed to get done. Exactly none of that has happened as I write this. I came in to a host of system problems. First our internet connection was so slow that it became hopeless to try to do anything on line, which is about 30 per cent of my work.
Since I couldn't get anything done on line I switched to the documents stored on one of the college's drives. No dice. The IT department had changed servers overnight and as of this writing that server wasn't working yet. End of story for any document work.
By this time it was lunch time. I had an errand to run at the bank and then I was going to return to campus for a college picnic. I realized at the bank that I had left the papers I needed to do the errand at home. So much for the errand. Then I walked out of the bank to a nearly flat tire on my truck. I drove slowly and carefully about five miles to a tire shop and they took a nail out. Ten bucks and I'm on my way back to campus. But I missed the picnic.
So it's back to the office. The internet connection is fixed but still no drive. I got the message. I'm outta here.
Happy Fourth to everyone!
