Life and work

elusivekooooh... I had such a busy week last week. After a certain presentation today, I consider myself in freedom, although there is still work on Friday, tomorrow LOL.
I'm also writing from my MacBook Air which feels so weird. I guess I've gotten used to the iPad with keyboard. I had stopped using my old MacBook Air (probably bought in 2013) because the battery life was getting really short. It'd go down to some 30% and suddenly the next minute the MacBook's dead. Well, a sudden split-second decision brought me to this repair shop and I got the battery replaced, so I'm kind of testing the battery life now. But I'm pretty happy with it. I think I've been typing on this for almost an hour or even over an hour and the battery started with 93% and now it's 86%, though I wasn't really paying attention just now. I'll do a proper timing next time.
I'm going to take tomorrow easy. I have the minutes from today's big presentation to write and then a lunch with some nice chatty colleagues. I usually like to issue minutes on the same day, but by the time the meeting ended it was 5pm and I had to go to the other office to sign off some paperwork for that office. I suppose a within 24-hours timeframe is acceptable.
This leads me to want to rant about a colleague at work. He called for a meeting, I had to be there because I had to set up the computer for video conferencing with my Boss, but this colleague seem to be of the impression that since "I'm the admin" I would issue the minutes for him. Heck no. Get your own admin to write your own minutes. In fact, when he called for the meeting, he had the gall to say "I want to have this meeting, you send the invitation agenda!" I kind of skivved off it, saying the final decision maker isn't me, it's the other admin because her Boss is the True Big Boss, and he had the gall to tell her the same thing LOL.
Now he's chasing me for the minutes and saying "he's afraid to ask her", meh, hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
Ask her yourself, sir!
LOL I feel so stupid. I'm writing on the MacBook Air but as I review the past paragraphs and see typos I tried to press on the screen to move the cursor LOL LOL LOL. I think it's a good thing I've decided to bring out the laptop again.
Oh yeah, the kombucha thing I made last month was a failure. I guess I didn't disinfect the bottle well enough, so now it's all fungus instead of SCOBY. BUT BUT BUT! I signed up to a workshop for kombucha brewing and that includes a SCOBY starter for later. Well, since I've failed learning it from Youtube and books, I'm going to an actual workshop to learn it!
I have a manicure lined up for Saturday. I should start thinking about colors. It's summer. I want to do one of those Tiffany-blue-ish-green-Aqua-ish maybe?
Time to be a slave to the cats and clean up the litter box and refill the sand! Until the next time! (maybe tomorrow for the Friday Five).
