Tiredness and the fun of fighting

I was so incredibly tired today - a Garthnutt came to visit last night and we stayed up till about 1.30 in the morning just chatting and remembering Garth stories. When is that damn man coming out of retirement???
Thanks for the fun, Ros - it was great to meet up again!

Sadly this meant very little sleep and for the first time in this job, I almost fell asleep while on the phone to a customer! I only put my head on the desk for "a few seconds" and noticed just in time that I was drifting off! (granted, the customer wasn't saying anything as he was trying out a solution I gave him, but still!). I'm not young anymore - I need my sleep! I got home around 5pm and fell asleep instantly only to wake up three hours later. Guess who won't sleep tonight *sigh*.

Another tidbit from work - I had somewhat of an "exchange of opinions" with a person in my team who thinks he's the centre of the earth. He was sticking his nose where it doesn't belong again and I gave him my piece of mind about it. My adrenalin must've gone through the roof at this point but what was best about this episode was the fact that people from the team came over after that "discussion" and congratulated me on telling him to go where the sun don't shine. Everyone hates the way he's interfering. Seeing as his role in the team is made to be interfering he's just making things so much more complicated for himself. A more competent people person would deal with this in a very different manner but he's no good. He'll find out soon enough how much the team "loves" him. In the meantime I'm having fun putting him in his place ;-)
And don't you all know - if there's something I'm good at then it's criticizing others! I've found my vocation!!!
