Audit

I hate doing anything audit-like. I mean, I feel so self-conscious having to ask things, like they're thinking "Who wants to know, errand boy?" Being ultra paranoid doesn't help any.

Far be it for me to sound two faced, but I was exaggerating when I said I "hated" auditing. It can just be a little uncomfortable, because its something that can be regarded with suspicion. Because you know everyone's wondering, why do the upper echelons want/need to know?

On a somewhat related note, don't you hate it when you think back to something you said and realize how foolish you sounded?

Wow, time sure does fly. It seems like just a minute ago I was thinking of complaining how it wasn't lunch yet, but when I looked at my watch again it was lunchtime. Famous! Totally Rufus. Righteous. Bossanova! Chevy Nova?

removing cousins

So, if you share a set of great grandparents, but are not first cousins or siblings, you are second cousins! "Removed" denotes when they share a set of ancestors but are not the same number of generations in descent from those ancestors. So if your cousin has children, their children would be your first cousins once removed. So my godson, who I refer to as a nephew since I think of his mother as a sister, is actually my first cousin, once removed. And I knew second cousin meant your parent's cousin's children. Like my cousins in Chicago, Cali, Chattanooga, and Norfolk are my second cousins, because their parents are the cousins of my parents. It all makes cents now! They cleared it up here.

Just a couple more hours. Its rather quiet, I think I only had to deal with three people so far, including this mad cutie whose computer was fragged. Okay, maybe not mad cute, but pretty cute. Anyways, I just jinxed it because as soon as finished typing "its rather quiet", a couple of guys came in, one of whom's problems took twenty minutes to handle, i.e., its been at least fifteen minutes between the fourth and fifth sentences. Anyways, phatjoe just passed by. He invited me to come along for lunch the other day, but he eats late, and I had already had my lunch. I've always taken lunch around 1130, because the way my metabolism goes, I'm starving by that time, especially if I haven't had any breakfast. Speaking of passersby, Jkau passed by a few hours ago. It looks like he's doing contract work for us right now.

Sidney Poitier says, "That would be a birthday."

What the hell, the girl who just came in referred to me as sir! Ex-squeeze me? First of all, not only am I not that much older than her, I don't even look it! Or perhaps she was in such awe of my heroic countenance that she regarded me with the utmost respect.

Whoops!

Sorry for the sextuple post! This thing is acting haywire, but I managed to delete all the excess entries.

Okay, now this thing is starting to piss me off.

Again, I apologize.

I'm really sorry for the excess posts, but I finally axed everything and got things back to normal!
