Freaky Friday

Well to say today is a bit weird and crazy would be an understatement. But that's better than being dull and boring, although there are times I like dull and boring!

I'm solo today when it comes to technology. And to be honest there are some things I've refused to learn or do as far as the technology part of this job. Add to weirdness of this day the half dozen or so laptops that I've seen and worked on AND the fact that our network is or was glitchy and doing an on-again, off-again kind of thing. Yep today is one of those days. On top of all of this I helped a dear friend who made it to work having a crippling migraine. She was unable to function by the time I found her in her office-vomiting, she could not drive nor deal with light, sound or sitting up. It. Was. Bad. I felt so badly for her as I've been in those shoes, many, many times. And unless you've experienced this you can only guess how badly it really is. After a couple of hours I did finally get her off of my office floor and down to her husband so he could drive her home. We made our way out to her car slowly and with a garbage can in front of us the entire way. She'll be hurting a day or two from this one. The headache hangovers are no fun either.

I've written about the perils of migraines and how devastating they can be. What you inherit from your relatives is not always good. Migraines suck, there is no other way to put it.

So for this being a Friday, finally, it is wild, wacky and crazy. But despite all of this it is quiet in other wonderful aspects! Amen and thank God for that!!

I heard this a.m. an interesting bit of info on the radio...whether it is true or not, I'm not sure? They played a tone like they do before an emergency news broadcast or weather announcement on air. And the DJ doing the news piece asked the other DJ's if the noise bothered any of them. It was and always has been an annoying sound. They played a couple of other loud noises on air also...then the news caster explained why. It seems that people who find the sounds annoying, along with loud sounds are very intelligent and artistic...now the noises bothered me, but I'm going to go with the artistic part of the explanation rather than the "very intelligent" part of the news story! But it was interesting....thus the reason why I'm enjoying the quiet of the day!

Just for the record...in case you haven't notice but today is Friday the 13th. Maybe that explains why today is a bit wacky!

Positive thought of the day: Stop a minute and listen to silence. I'm enjoying mine!
