Sorry for the late post here but I'm not going to be around today.
Had the funeral for the GM last Friday, then there was unrelated drama concerning work which bled into this week. I'll get into that drama another time, I'd rather not type it.
Then another funeral Saturday for my co-workers father. Onto this week where we have yet another funeral for one of our lead mechanics who finally passed away from whatever undiagnosed auto-immune disorder that put him in the hospital since June 2014.
This in on top of all of the other usual bullshit that goes on here.
My stomach has been in knots and I've been chewing antacids like candy. So as you can imagine the level of stress I'm under has left me wiped out.
Oh, I almost forgot to mention. The computer at home finally blew up. It had been crashing and freezing. I noticed a process running SP.exe and it was hogging resources and hijacking my browser. Apparently this program tries to advertise to you. It also writes itself into your registry so if you uninstall it it reinstalls itself. It had originally installed itself 12/24/14 at something like 3 am. Anyhow, I found the program and got rid of it and when the computer rebooted I got the blue screen of death and had to format and reinstall windows. Then, since it was windows xp it had driver issues.
Ended up picking up an asus pc, windows 7 home premium, i5 processor 12 MB ram, 1TB hard drive, integrated sound and video from Staples for $579.
So that's one less thing to worry about, but it was money I didn't have to spend.
