I have spent the bulk of my day working. Go me?
I started with working on communication with some “people” online. I put people in quotes because who the heck really knows anymore unless you are actually speaking to them in person in real life. Anyway, I am again dealing with bunch of scammers and catfish. Of course, nothing real there. Sad really. And then a couple of people who are real, but are just not interested in me, just my money. Not that I have that much. But I made it a rule to not give money to anyone I haven’t met in real life (business websites are of course excluded from this since I am unlikely to meet anyone from Amazon in real life…).
After that, I worked for my lunch. Well, sort of. I saw a roasted red pepper dip online somewhere and decided I had to try it. Of course, I adjusted the recipe a little bit. I think it turned out pretty well. All things considered. But soooo much of it! I am going to freeze a hefty portion of it. Maybe I will freeze two or three pouches of it. We shall see how I feel when I get to that in a little bit. Anyway, it is pretty tasty. I need to break out the pita (or the tortillas) for it for tomorrow’s lunch I think.
Next up on the work parade – doing things for the Geneva Light Opera. As usual, I am being pushed to get the tickest for sale on the web quickly, now, must have them for sale now, now now. Oh wait, the menu isn’t final. The prices changed. What? My phone number is being used somewhere? And I am not, of course, getting answers as quickly as I would like. So I am just muddling through as best I can. I think I have all the show tickets (twelve of them – four for each of three performances) up and ready to go. Items on Square are really data heavy and everything needs to be updated if I start from an existing ticket. Don’t get me started on creating the tickets from scratch. Anyway, those took a really long time.
Next I worked on the tickets for the banquet that happens in MAY!!! (Oh, and the show isn’t until June). I did one batch and they didn’t work. So I recreated them, even more simplified. And I like them. Very straightforward and simple. And if anyone prints them out the ought to use very little ink. I just finished with them around 6. I will double check everything tomorrow before telling GR that the site is ready for business. (I have to remember to change the website so that people can get to the tickets!)
And there we are. All work has made me a dull boy. No wonder no one wants to date me. Their loss.
Last night I watched the first three episodes of season 3 of The Wheel of Time series. Or the series that I like to think of as a fantasy series with characters named like characters in the wheel of time book series. At least they are keeping some things. We got to see one scene that was a huge fan favorite, so there’s that. Although the series is really very little like the books, it is a well done fantasy series imho. So go watch it! We want the rest of the seasons please!
