Just finished the Excel test on which I made 100. Just because I know Excel doesn't mean I like it. I really despise the program. Always have, and I guess I always will. There's just something about it that pisses me off. Which reminds me of that joke told in Stephen King's 'Storm of the Century.' I'm paraphrasing here.
After withstanding all the horrors placed upon him, Job spoke to God. "Lord, I've been a faithful servant my entire life. I've always observed the Holy Days and adhered to all your laws and commandments. I've even made it through all the horrible trials you've placed upon me without my faith wavering one bit. So I ask you, Lord: why did you allow all these terrible things to happen to me, your most faithful and devoted servant?"
There was silence for a moment, then thunder clapped and God spoke: "Job -- I guess there's just something about you that pisses me off."
So yeah. I'm not saying I'm god and I'm not saying Excel is Job, but the same sentiment is there, at least for me. There's just something about it that pisses me right off and makes me want to headbutt the computer monitor. I'm glad we're moving on from here. I'm waiting for the last couple of people to finish the test, then we're off to do an extra credit quiz. After that, hopefully we'll be out of here.
Jeeeebus, I'm bored.

I didn't think I was wearing any green because I don't bloody celebrate Saint Patrick's Day; however, upon further inspection, it would seem my excessive sweating has caused a green mold thing to develop on one of my nose rest thingies on my glasses. That'll be gone as soon as I get home but, for now, I'm wearing green. Uh.. Ew?
