Work is frustrating me right now. Specifically one client; he is very impatient and can't focus on anything for more than thirty seconds. It's like dealing with me and I hate dealing with people like myself. Plus I am suffering this week from the downside of working at a start-up company -- there are times when the product shows its immaturity and you have to sing and dance to make things look good to the client while texting under the table to engineering to fix shit. I would like to hold out here for a while, but so far this week has been frustrating. I think I am going to take Friday off just to regroup my mind. I need a day without drama, work, people, etc. The one upside to my old job was the ability to work from home on occasion and while I bitched about the long stretches of that, the small intermittent days definitely helped my mental attitude. Yeah yeah, I know - I bitch about everything. Hey it's what I do, remember? King fucking abrasive right here in the flesh...

Got home from work and made dinner for me and the kid. Made waffle and egg sandwiches because it's what I was in the mood for last night. No mystery or anything, just felt like it. We sat down last night and registered her for classes. She learned the first rule of college; when registration day is upon you, don't dawdle. Everything you need will fill up immediately. She is taking 12 units, all general education. Her schedule is not bad. She has a class pretty much M-F, but Wednesday is the only 'full' day. Everything else will still let her work and have time for a life. Plus she knocks out about 1/2 of the GE requirements needed for graduation this way. Some of her classes are hilarious like Homosexuality in Film. Yep. It's a real class. She needed something from the Humanities department and that was one of the few open classes.

I will say it did feel good to be able to pay for her classes, $450, without even blinking. I simply transferred it from her 529 and boom, done. Now she needs books. She will take care of that on Monday. Same thing, buy the books, transfer the money. Done. She will have more than enough for her AA.

After doing her classes we went and got some Froyo. It just sounded good. We then watched three more X-Files episodes. We are in season 4 finally. Only 5 more to go.

TGF and I texted sporadically yesterday. She is still out of town at her dance thing. She texted me late last night a little drunk and was surprised when I responded. We had a nice little back and forth until sleep was too much for me and I faded.

The rats are doing fine. I need to come up with some kind of play area for them. I am going to plan out how I want them to have some play area this weekend.

I wish I didn't have fucking rehearsal on Saturday. It's right in the middle of the day. But at least I don't have a show.
