New Phase

Does the phrase "entered into a new phase in life" ring any bell to you? It sure does to me now. The past 2 months have been busy, or maybe hectic is a better word. Work, work and more work, all piling. In the past, I used to be so confident in making arrangements to meet after work. These days, I am so unsure. Things can just crop up at the last hour and make plans go awry. A normal "operation" that will take maybe an hour, can be dragged to two or even four or more hours. Things can be go ridiculously wrong. Murphy's law of "what can go wrong, will go wrong", applies here. I seriously wonder if this change in my job scope is a good thing or bad.

I'm finding myself agreeing to the comment that someone came up with, that computers are female. They can be working fine one minute then the next, they can just practically "blow" up in your face. A simple task or operation or command can go so so so wrong. It's like they're PMS-ing or something, "agreeing" with you one moment and "flaring" up at you the next. Maybe they should start a class in "computer psychiatry", understanding their "emotions".

It doesn't help when my gal is also on the same path as me. She's had it hard these days too. Things just happen at the eleventh hour, and she's so stressed up when this happens. I understand her frustration and anxiety, cos I've been through that too. It's really a occupational hazard.

Hope things will turn out for the better in the nearer future. Cheers to all!
