Monday, June 9... 10 am... Good Bye Chelsea Cat

By The Purple Banana on Monday 16 June 2008, 10:51

11 days without posting... there is the reason...

Monday, June 9... 10 am... Sad day

Good bye Chelsea cat, goodbye my old little friend.

I told you some weeks ago that my old cat got sick. Badly sick, she got a kind of cancer because of her old age.

After a first visit to the vet, when she got antibiotics and vitamins shots, she was feeling and looking better.

But after 3 weeks she was back in a bad bad state. We went back to the vet on Saturday afternoon. He gave her some shots again but he was honest, it was not a lot of hopes.

And then, on Sunday she was looking so bad, that I took the big decision. It makes me cry all the day. I gave her a lot of hugs and kisses, and when she was looking at me... we both knew... even more, she was asking that I do something. She was tired being sick and she loses strength to fight.

And so...

On Monday morning we went to the vet for the last time...

I was even not able to talk as I had too much of tears.

The vet was really sweet and nice. I opened Chelsea's basket and she came against me in her kind of hug, pressing her head against my chest and she stayed like that, like she was waiting.

I took her head in my hands to look at her, i told her that I'll miss her... I gave her again a lot of kisses.

And the vet gave her a shot to make her sleeping. She felt asleep in my arms, and I have to say... she was looking very peaceful.

The vet asked me if I wanted to stay for the final shot. I said no, I was already crying a lot and I was afraid to see her... dead.

It was on last Monday, and since, I wanted to write that post, and since I was not able to do it, even now, I'm in the metro writing on my notebook... and crying...

Good bye My Chelsea cat, goodbye my old friend, we shared 16 years together, we shared joy, we shared sadness, we shared all...

I miss you...

I'll code html for food :p

By The Purple Banana on Thursday 5 June 2008, 21:29

My love drives me CRAZY!!!

I'm not sure if it was his goal or not, but, since Richard asked me about blogs, I turned crazy about it.

So, maybe Richard was searching a way to make me busy, like that I'll don't count the days, I'll forget the wait and I don't gonna to be depress.

And, whatever if it was his goal or not... It works!!!

Richard awakes some of my old knowledges.
Then now I'm working really hard on blogs stuffs.

I work on css, yes, but also I start to remind my junior knowledge about php, I retrieved a great pleasure to work with Photoshop and even more, I'm thinking to work with Flash!

Oh Gosh... now I got a lot of projects, I want to do that and that and that, and I'm thinking it will be a good idea to do that also... etc. etc. ...

I just have to don't forget to post there! :p

No worries, I wont!

Just, you know, it's a kind of rebirth. I mean, I liked webdesign in the past (never ask me to show you what I did... 'cause I lost all of my old data's

), but for some reasons it's something I completely stopped to do some years ago.

So now, as I already said, my goal is to become some kind of web expert, first for myself, will see if it can drive me in something else... or... maybe... in some weeks... I'll think that I saw all I had to see about that and think that I'll have to try something else... or I will just to busy with my immigration!!!

Oh god I HOPE SO!!!!

Back to waiting....

By The Purple Banana on Friday 30 May 2008, 12:55

Unfortunately my Love had to left yesterday afternoon...

Gally and I we was going with Richard to the airport... it was so hard to let him go.
To don't fall to depressed, Gally and I we had a walk in a mall...

BAD!!!

To forget that I was so sad, I needed to spend some money. We went to the Sephora store (perfumes), i went there 'cause I wanted to try the Vera Wang perfume, "Princess".
My Love heard about it, and 'cause I'm his princess, he was thinking that maybe it can be my perfume.

I tried it... I really don't like it...

But as I was there I tried the Viktor and Rolf perfume, "Flowerbomb"!

Oh gosh! I love it! OK, it's a bit a heavy perfume, but, it smells soooooooo good... I bought it!

I hope my Love will love it too.

I'm too busy to take care about the blog! :)

By The Purple Banana on Monday 26 May 2008, 11:04

I'm sorry!
But since my sweetheart is arrived on Saturday afternoon. I don't really take care about the blog right now. I think you can understand this as I prefer to spend my time in my Love arms than on my comp.

The only reason I'm posting today is because I had to come at work...

So, some quick news.

Saturday afternoon I was going to the airport to welcome my Love! I was so happy that I gave a 7 euros diner ticket to a homeless guy who was begging for money.

Oh my, you can't imagine the wonderful feelings to be finally in my Love arms, I have no words to describe it.

Sunday we went to Bruxelles to visit my parents. It was the first meeting with Richard. And all was perfect. We spent such a great time all together.

We don't really have plans for the following days. Today I'm working. But, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday i got free days, I will be able to stay all the time with my one. We will see.

Don't worry if you'll get no news 'till Thursday.

No news mean that I'm too happy to even think about the blog.

Someday the mice will come at night...

By The Purple Banana on Thursday 22 May 2008, 15:42

Last Saturday was a big day for Gally.
Last Saturday it was her very first visit to the dentist.

Gally got really good teeth and she brushes them good every day.

She also never drinks sodas, only water or milk.

Then 'till now, no need to go to the dentist.
But some days ago, she told me that it was hurting on her teeth.
I was... oh no... the cavities are starting! :(

             Ok sweetie, let me check what happens!
           Open your mouth wide.
             Hmmm, OK, I see no cavities! Good!
             But, open wider... is it in the back?
             I see, that your gum looks irritate in the back.

             Let's call the dentist to have an appointment.

Grrrr, Damned! 2 weeks waiting to get an appointment but if its an emergency.
It's my sweetie! It's en emergency!

...

Well, as we have to wait 2 weeks, we will do extra special teeth's care!
After 2 days of extra cares, irritation of the gum had disappeared.

But as I wanted Gally ready for her first dentist visit, I was still helping her every days... in case of.

And also we talked every days about her appointment.

I never told her about scaring dentist stories and apparently nobody at school either. Good thing!

We was then talking about the dentist almost like we would talk about the hairdresser.

I told Gally about the moving chair, how the dentist will watch her teeth etc... OK, I forgot to talk about the shots but I was pretty sure that she don't gonna get the shots.

And Gally told me that she can't wait to lose her first tooth.
I asked, why. She answered that she wants to lose her first tooth to stay awake and see the little mice coming!
She wonder what kind of gift she will get.

She's so cute.

So, the appointment was just easy. She has nothing.
It was only her last molars, which were being released.
Gally even wanted to stay more to play with the chair!

I hope that it will be always like that! And... extra special cares are now normal cares! Just in case of!

No pictures

By The Purple Banana on Thursday 22 May 2008, 14:00

Sometimes it's not easy to find an image a picture to illustrate my posts.

And today I found nothing.

It's a quiet day at work even if I'm with Gally because of the strike.
I have almost nothing to do right now.

Yesterday I teched my new co-worker, and today, I gave him the work I use to do. So... I'm doing nothing.

I was not prepare for that!!!

So now, maybe I can think about some new posts!

BRB!

Broken...

By The Purple Banana on Monday 19 May 2008, 20:14

I feel broken, tired, exhausted this evening. I'm not complaining, it's just a fact.

Where is the women who says that she's a fighter you'll maybe wonder...

She's right now lost in some strike black hole. Today, after a busy weekend when I don't really get rest, after a busy day at work, when I went to Gally's school after work, the after school educators told me that it will be strike again on Thursday.

Oh my god! Enough! I can maybe understand that they fight about bad stuffs, but now its almost every weeks. Days at work with Gally is something really exhausting. If its happened rarely, it's kinda OK, I will almost say pretty funny. But, it was 3 days in April, now 2 days in May... it's the straw that broke the camel's back!

Beside it's exhausting I know that I have a lot of tasks to do this week... So I will try to do in the 2 following days what I planned to do in 3 days... just... 3 days was already very short...

I feel like the picture that illustrate my post. It's the broken battle angel. She's a fighter... but she's broken...

About the Battle Angel, here's a little story.

Do you remember that my little laptop's screens killer calls Gally?
The Battle Angel name is Gally. It's from where come Gally's name.

A lot of years ago now, I was reading the Battle Angel story. I liked so much Gally the main character, that I decided to call my daughter Gally in case off I will have one.

And Gally came. And I can tell, she's a fighter! OK right now she fights with my laptop, but not only! She was training her Panzer Kunst when she broke my screen... I'm guilty! I gave a fighter name to my daughter... I have to deal with.

Chelsea cat is a figther!

By The Purple Banana on Sunday 18 May 2008, 15:58

I'm so sorry no post yesterday.
I was kinda busy.

I'm spending the weekend with my 2 daughters and we had a lot to do.

First, we went to the dentist for Gally. It was her very first time to the dentist. By chance she had nothing bad, it was just her gum a bit inflated due to new teeth coming.
Good things for her, the dentist said that she got great teeth. No pain, no scary cares. Gally is happy and not afraid by the dentist.

Second, we went to the townhouse to get some paperworks for my big one.

Third, we went to the vet, for my cat, Chelsea. She is old, almost 16. And since some days she completely stopped eating. She's already small and thin, and after some diet days, she was looking like a skeleton.
The vet told us, that... hmmmm it looks like it's only because her old age. But we gonna to try to save her.
He gave her 5 shots, some vitamins, some antibiotics, some re hydration solution. He gave us some medics for her, and also a high calories pasta and 2 boxes of special food for sick cats.

He told us, that if she fight, he she restart to eat by herself during the weekend, we may have good hopes. If not...

He was hoping that she will eat the half of one of the special food box 'till Monday.
So he asked us to call back on Monday morning and say how Chelsea is feeling, what she eats ... etc.

And I'm really happy!!! 'Cause she do great. As I'm writing she already eats almost one complete box and we're only Sunday early afternoon.

My cat is getting better, she's like me, she's a fighter.

Beside that I had to do food shopping, "homeworks"...etc.

And also I was working on the blog's look and feel. I changed it a bit. I hope that you'll like it. I still have to do some stuffs, but right now it looks almost like I want.

Running late!

By The Purple Banana on Thursday 15 May 2008, 11:32

I need to vent on something!!!!... or not...

My day started as a kind of bad day...you know that kind of day you'll think. Oh god, I guess it's just not my day.

First, I was preparing breakfast , I opened a new bottle of milk for Gally's hot chocolate.
She started to drink and said :
Errrk mum it taste bad! I tasted, and yes it was bad. I tasted directly from the bottle... oh god! It was horrible!

I use to buy, like a lot of European, what we call UHT Milk (Ultra-high temperature), there is a link to Wikipedia :
UHT Milk on Wikipedia.

So, it's long conservation milk and I use to have a big stock as Gally drinks a lot of milk.
One bottle is bad... first time it happens to me, but it may happen. So... OK. I opened another bottle.
Same!!! I opened the 6 bottles I had. All the milk was bad.

No milk for Gally at the morning... bad start as she really need it. OK, as she comes with me at work because of once again school is on strike, we will stop at Starbucks.

We was late after all that waste of time on the milky way, and the Starbucks stop makes it worse.

As we was on the way for work, my boss called me.

The boss : Where are you? You're late!
Me : Yes, I told you yesterday about schools strike, so I come even if not easy for me, but I'm sorry. When you run with a young child, being late may happens.
The boss : You have to manage your time to don't be late (it's one of his favorite sentence).
Me : OK, If its like that, next time, I will stay at home with my daughter, period! And I ended the call.

5 minutes after that, Gally and I we arrived at work and my boss said nothing.

Oh My, I was already upset about the milk, now my boss... what's next?

A bit later between my work tasks and taking care about Gally I took 5 minutes to call the store where I bought the milk. Beside being refund I wanted to told them about maybe some sanitary risk.
The women I was talking with. Told me, oh no, we don't have problems with milk, you're the only one who called about that, but if you bring back all the bottles we will refund you... I already empty the bottles in the sink, and as I don't have a car (I always use delivery services) even if I kept the bottles, I will not carry it till the store. So... OK, Thank you for the advice...

I really was thinking, that's not my day today.

After lunch time, meeting with the boss and some co-workers. My boss started to talk about the new guy who will arrive next week. The guy who will replace me actually. Talking about that my boss asked me :

The boss : When you want to leave?
Me : I will give you my 3 months notice as soon I will have my NOA2 from the USCIS
The boss : Yes I know, but what I ask is : When you want to go?
(I tried to don't look too happy or too surprised)
Me : Oh If I can leave in August it will be perfect.
The boss : OK, I hope it will be enough for the new guy to learn about all your skills. but, OK.

Awwwwwww!!!! I was close to hug him!!!

It's not a bad day!!! It's a great day!!! It's my day!!!

Another big step that make us closer! And I was really thinking that my boss will not give me that kind of "gift".

We never know what can happen... even on a day that start really bad.

Take a breathe

By The Purple Banana on Wednesday 14 May 2008, 21:22

Oh yes, I need to take a breathe.

So, right now it's better than yesterday. I was able to take a laptop at work 'till mine will be fixed.

Good thing!

But today was a busy day at work. And it was workers around who makes a lot of noise all the day.

So, I'm pretty tired this evening. I would like to have something to write. But right now, nothing. My head is empty... or maybe to full!

:p

So about what I can talk?

About immigration? Nothing to say about that, still waiting... 86 days now that we sent our petition.
It drives me crazy...

...

Grrrrr, the inspiration is really gone today! I need my muse! My Love!

Ok, enough complaining...

Tomorrow will be another day, another busy day!
School's strike again... Gally will follow me at work again.

However I will try to find a moment to dig deep inside me to get back my silly inspiration.

Gally's Art

By The Purple Banana on Tuesday 13 May 2008, 23:00

Do you know what's that picture?

Nope?

Any guess?

No its not the new kind of modern art... nope... definitely not.

That picture is how will look your laptop screen if you have crazy kids jumping everywhere 'till they'll fall on your laptop...

It's what happens to me this evening...

Gally had her crazy time, you know like 5 years old kids may have. And being completely nuts she felt on my laptop.
When I heard the sound... I knew it was broken.

You know at that moment your heart will leap into your mouth . You have, your daughter who doesn't get hurt and your expensive comp broken.

You can be the sweetest, you'll yelled! And I yelled!

Oh My!

So, I sent her in her bed, and I checked how bad are the damages.

By chance I have another monitor, you know, a big one. So I plugged it on my laptop. And, I can breathe, only the screen is broken. So I lost nothing but the screen.

So now as even if I'm still upset, I will just go to bed, read my book and get some rest.

Tomorrow morning, when Gally will wake up. I know it she will come in my arms and say : I'm so sorry mum, I love you. And I will hug her.
A screen it's just something that can be fixed.
Even, OK... I'm upset about that right now.

Nothing is more important than the love of your loves.
And by the way, my Love, my Richard already told me that he will fix my screen when he will come in 2 weeks to visit me!

OK, this evening was not so good, but, my Love can be like always ... MY HERO!

Cherries or not cherries, that's the question.

By The Purple Banana on Monday 12 May 2008, 21:42

You know as I’m already an old woman…

I can tell, life is not just a bowl of cherries.
(OK, in some weeks I will change my mind about that.)

Like everyone I had some bad issues, bad stories or big steps in my life I had to deal with (don’t worry I have a lot of good too).
Some was really hard.
But that’s life! And I'm always get up again after a fall, as I will say I’m a kind of fighter.

When something bad happens in my life, it doesn’t matter how many times it will take to fix it.
I will fix it.
Even if sometimes, I’ll feel completely lost, even if first, I will not know how to fix the problem.
I will fix it.

I will work on it; I’ll do my best and find solutions. And ‘till now I always did it. And it works.
Maybe sometimes I was just lucky, but most of the time it’s only because I’ll never throw the towel.

But right now, I don’t now how to fight. ‘Cause there is no fight. Only a long wait.
Oh yes it’s a fight, a fight against myself, I already had to fight against myself but not really like that!
I have to deal with my impatience. At start I’m not a huge patient person. But! Even the most patient person will become crazy waiting that the Immigration services will finally take a look about her case.

So…

As you know already, my only waiy to fight this time is making me busy as possible.

And now, making me so busy, I get another dilemma!

Some days ago I decided to write a lot, not because I’m a writer… I’m not. I just need to improve my English.

And also.

Some days ago I bought His Dark Materials trilogy, a thousand pages book… in French, I’m not ready to read that kind of book in English.

Then.

When I’m writing, I think about reading and when I’m reading I think about writing!!!
What can I do…?
Life is soooooooo cruel!

I know how to fix it. Spending all my time in my Love’s arms. And I will forget book and blog!

… I have to wait for that! My Love is still so far...
Life is really not a bowl of cherries right now.

Sunday funny Sunday

By The Purple Banana on Sunday 4 May 2008, 15:11

Another funny and busy day today!

As the girls was staying a bit late in the bed this morning, I did all the "homeworks" (I say homeworks 'cause it was one of my mistakes before and it's kind a joke between my Love and I, and now we always use "homeworks" beside houseworks).

After that when I was cooking some chicken with lime. The girls was making pearls necklaces listening funny (or stupid) music.
Like songs like Barbie Girl from Aqua or even that one :

I know, its stupid music, but so funny!!! And I have to say... I adore it!

Let the sunshine in

By The Purple Banana on Sunday 4 May 2008, 11:59

Look at that!!!

Woohoo, Let the sunshine in!!!

I was so bad the other day when I said that we lose the seasons. But I was kinda depressed by the immigration wait and the cold weather made the things worse.

So. I know I didn't post yesterday. I was not lazy. I was just really busy. I have my 2 daughters this weekend and we have a lot of fun. Yesterday we had a great walk under the sun, we did some shopping, we went to a Japanese restaurant and we did skating. Great time!

OK, I know, right now my blog is more a kind of diary, but... not a lot to say about immigration. Just a good news, with the others Visa Journey members we saw this last week that the CSC seems to be back in work. Guys and girls, cross your fingers and toes to make my approval come SOON!!!!

Nothing to say... Soon a writer? who knows?

By The Purple Banana on Friday 2 May 2008, 20:21

Nothing special today.

No news about USCIS... so...

It will be another "I have nothing to say" post.

So, even I have nothing to say, I think that I start to feel more comfortable writing in English.
What are you thinking about that?

Nothing? Oh... OK.

So, I gonna to congratulate myself :p

My guess is that I'm not so bad. OK, I have to improve my vocabulary... but... You know, you start with a blog, and after that you'll feel enough good to write novels (beside my English I have to work about my creativity and my imagination) and soon books! He he I'm kidding, or not.

hmmm... why not a book about a young wizard who goes to the wizard school? Already done? grrrr... or about a young women who starts to work for a fashion magazine and who has a really scarying manager? Already done also? Pffffff...

I'm not ready to write a book or a novel. I will just write the blog for now. :p Even when I have nothing to say.

P.S : I don't know if it's because I was complaining ... but it looks like seasons are fixed! Springtime is finally there!

Lazy day

By The Purple Banana on Thursday 1 May 2008, 19:30

He he, lazy day today... about everything!

Gally and I we woke up late, we took our time for breakfast.
We took our time for taking our bath.

We did a walk outside to take some fresh air.
We bought some Lily of the valley.

I try to figure out what I will post today... lol, I'm even lazy about that.
At this time I really don't know if I'll post something else than that "I have nothing to say" post.

It's my fault, 4 posts yesterday... next time I will save my ideas for the other days.

Maybe I will find something before the end of the day... or not :p

Horoscope of the day

By The Purple Banana on Wednesday 30 April 2008, 16:21

I receive every day my horoscope in my mail. The only reason I read it, it because they always or almost promise me really strange things.

Like the one I received for today... he he ... they are completely mad I think.

Today, you will get great advantages to have been born under the pisces sign ! Follow the stream without seeking to fight against the elements! If this day were a movie, it could have as a title "All can happens!" : From meeting an escaped crocodile or to be kidnap by the gentle Martians, who would bring you back to your house at the end of the day... You will have understood it, the word of the day: dont take care about coherence, it does not have there!

But unfortunately, no crocodiles or E.T at this time... The wierdest thing today was when one customer call me to have some IT support, and after 5 mn he was telling me all his divorce story and kept me on call something like 30 mn... I had nothing else to do so why not... But I'm not the SOS Broken Hearts Line!

Lily of the valley

By The Purple Banana on Wednesday 30 April 2008, 13:16

Tomorrow we will be in May.

A bit in advance...

Happy First May!

And there is some Lily of the valley for you all!

May is in France the month of the Lily of the Valley.
Awwww the name in English is so cute! I love it!

For May 1 we use to give some Lily of the Valley.

'Cause it's the time of that flower and we use to think that they give good luck.

Its a sweet tradition, even if its a highly toxic plant.

May is also the lazy month in France.

Look :
May, 1 is a National Day (Work celebration, and for sure we don't work that day)
This year it comes a Thursday so most of employers give also the Friday. 4 days weekend.

May, 8 is a National Day (Victory and End of Second War celebration)
This year it comes a Thursday so most of employers give also the Friday. And with May, 12... it mean a 5 days weekend.

May, 12 is a Religious Day (Pentecost).

So, you have to know that the first 2 weeks of May, France is off.

Average of vacation days for French by year? 39
I heard that we're the world champion about that :p

Oh god I gonna to miss that!

We all know the game where's Waldo?

By The Purple Banana on Wednesday 30 April 2008, 10:26

Since March 21 there is a new game!

Where is springtime?

Or since 5 minutes (where is the post I wrote... grrrrrr I hate computers crashes)
So I'll write again! And this time will save my work every second :p

I have to complain about some things...
At the start we got something like "Welcome on earth, a great place to live", even if we had no choices, it was like that.
Depending about a lot of parameters and a really unfair lottery, we get all one of the "welcome on earth" package.
Those packages are like, No packages, Economic packages, Standard packages, Business packages, First Class packages or even Roller coaster packages... etc...

I'm no there to talk about the unfair lottery about who get First class packages or not.
But, whatever your package, it comes with some basics features.

One of basic feature is seasons. In my earth area I got the four seasons basic feature.
It mean four different kind of weather during the year.

Springtime :
Sweet weather, a bit warm, flowers everywhere, singing birds... sunny but not too much, just enough of rain to help the nature growing up... so nice and good
Summer :
Warm weather, really warm, green trees heavy from fruits, golden cereals fields, sunshine all the time, very long days to enjoy that great time
Autumn :
Start with an Indian Summer, really warm at the start, with beautiful red and yellow trees, it use to become colder and rainy at the end when the leaves are falling topping the streets with a colorful blanket.
Winter :
Cold weather, short days, snow every where, Christmas time...
Hmmmm I think if you want to see the Eiffel Tower under the snow you have to buy a snow globe

So, right now, since a long time maybe because of some bugs (some of you will say that's because of humans collateral damages), the 4 seasons are broken!

Now we have only one long cold, rainy, gray season with sometimes a tired sun who fight against the clouds...

I have to call the customers care and yell against someone! Do you know the customers care phone number?

Sorry, I feel down and I need to say silly things today. But I have to say, even the weather is really bad, there is a permanent sunshine in my heart since I met my Love!

French manicure?

By The Purple Banana on Monday 28 April 2008, 16:52

I told you last week that beauty cares makes me feel better. Its so true.
As my Love told me its always good to let someone pampers you.
And my Love told me also, why you don't go to have a manicure when you feel bad?

I always listen to my Love :p

So next week, I have an appointment on Wednesday for a French manicure and Friday for a pedicure.
It will be the first time in my life. I use to do my nails myself.

I hope also that I will like the French...

But It mean 2 lunch time thinking about nothing else that feeling good and enjoy myself.
So its good!

Beauty cares make me feel better

By The Purple Banana on Wednesday 23 April 2008, 10:06

What's the result about keeping me so busy.

Does the time go faster? NO

The only result right now is that I'm exhausted. And I really don't feel better...

So, I will still keep me busy, but I need something else to makes me feel better.

I just call my hair dresser and will go there Saturday afternoon. I know I 'll feel better after that.

'cause i really love that place. Its funny there, nice music and really nice peoples. For me its the best hair dresser in Paris.

Dead tired!

By The Purple Banana on Thursday 17 April 2008, 21:46

I feel too weak today to post something interesting. After 2 days with my daughter at work, believe me working and taking care about your child in the same time is something highly tiring and stressful.

I'm tired, exhausted...

Today was not more quiet. Really busy day at work, lot of things to do. I work as IT support and I think that all the worst users conspired to call today.

Fortunately tomorrow is the last day! I really need to get some rest.

Strikes in France

By The Purple Banana on Tuesday 15 April 2008, 13:52

I would like to but i have to say Strikes in France are not an urban legend.

Its true and it happens often... too often.

Like today, my daughter school is on strike and tomorrow too. So no school... what can I do? Staying at home with my daughter...
Hmmm, i can't, 'cause they need me at work.
And if I stay at home I have to take vacation days... it's bad!

So my daughter (her name is Gally) come with me at work. May you imagine a 5 years old girl spending an all day to a software publisher.
It's pretty funny. 'Cause it's not the first time that she comes now. So she knows everyone. She makes drawings for everyone. She goes chatting with everyone. Lol, the mood is less stressful when she's there.

Ok, i can't really work, because she needs attention, but i don't know why, my boss prefers that, rather I stay at home.
And by the way it makes me really busy... the day goes really really fast!
