i wasn't in a very good mood in that last entry. sorry. i just hate getting sick. it drives me crazy. especially when it's my most favorite month of the year and i got an endless load of things to do. i tell you, for anyone who wants to lose weight, stress is the best diet!

my day wasn't as stressful as it could have been. yesterday at work, i was helping the kindergarten teacher type out the comments for report cards. she was impressed at my speed... in other words, she types REALLY slow. well today, i had to proofread the other comments she put in. there were no mistakes in her grammar or spelling, but the program the teachers are using SUCKS. it has a code where it would automatically change the he/hims into she/hers and for one reason or another, it wasn't working for the boys. and what's worse than a program that sucks? people who use it who's reasoning is that "the computer just knows who is a boy and who is a girl."... a computer is a machine. it doesn't know anything. it's just programmed.

i know it sounds like i'm in a not so good mood but really i am. see, i'd be in a bad mood if i were older and needed to use computers but didn't know a thing about them... like the teachers stressing out at the school. hahaha!
