Mild Heart Attack

I think I just suffered a mild heart attack, when I looked at my work calendar in Outlook to discover that EVERYTHING WAS GONE! I was especially concerned because of a new policy at work where old Outlook e-mail, tasks & apppointments are "cleaned up" (aka deleted) automagically.

As it turns out, Susan had changed the system date last night while trying to figure out what day we officially became California residents. All is well now, but it's kind of scary how much I rely on something that can disappear so easily.

  • Isn't that funny how we depend so much on computers for communication, organizing our lives and for entertainment?! I have a planner sitting on my desk but it might as well be a paperweight for as much as I use it.

  • Speaking of mild heart attacks, my roommate and I ordered MLB extra innings to allow us to watch multiple baseball games/day...much more than one could physically watch w/o multiple TVs. For whatever reason, the twins game against the sox (that was listed) was blocked. I consider myself an avid twins fan and a big fan of MLB in general. My roommate on the other had is crazy about baseball. He took openning day off so he could watch all the games and is in general a huge fan. I thought said roommate was going to punch a hole in my TV when he saw the game was blocked. This occured only after he stated every profanity I have ever heard and I am pretty sure he made some up as well.
