Technically inapt

I am not sure, wether I mentioned it here, but I  really have a hard time with some technical aspects in life. I can install stuff like games and my i-Pod, but it took me about an hour to get some money on my mobiles sim-card. All because I had zero € on my account and therefore couldn't do it by calling the number on the bon. Ah well. It is done and I learned and so maybe it was meant that way. Though I do have some strong doubts about it.

At any rate: recently I kept very late - or early - hours. Today I schlepped into bed at about 3.30 am. And out of it at 7.00 am. Not a lot of sleep and believe me: it is not true, that civil servants sleep during office hours. We simply don't have the time. Which was good really, because work kept me from missing the time to go home. :-) And it was interesting as well. So no complaints. I even got some new workline. So I'll survive.

My poor colleague is ill and today until Friday at least, he was written off sick. I hope he gets better soon. Though he did not miss very much, I suppose. Yesterday I bought some new computer speakers and since he wasn't in, I listened to the music on my i-Pod. He's not likely to have enjoyed that. On the other hand: I would not have listened to my i-Pod-Music had he been in.

But he also misses our teams christmas-dinner. Though not feeling good, he would hardly have enjoyed it. Let us just hope, that he gets well soon, because otherwise it is likely, that a lot of work will pile up. And no one really can't do much about it.

Apart from that, let us get some music on. Maybe som Bing Crosby? Yes. And I think I combine it with Dean Martin AND Frank "The Voice" Sinatra. The latter mainly, because it would have been his 98th birthday tomorrow. Since I don't write on Thursdays and on Friday it is crime-post-time, I don't congratulate (he's dead anyway), but I remember him.. Oh: es ever: I do not own the clip...
