Currently people in the flat above are playing and Andre Lloyd-Webber 'Greatest Hits' cd, very loudly. It is percolating through the floor. this is a personal little hell for me and I shall go upstairs and get them to turn it down.

What your idea of Hell.

It could be worse - Andrew Lloyd-Webber could move in upstairs.

Same as Ed's, only the CD is stuck on "Masquerade" and "Think Of Me".

currently I am failing to export data from excel, know-nothing spreadsheet software into spss, know-nothing financial statistics software. The help desk said talk to [my annoying coworker]. I have am ear infection. This is hell. Though it could be worse, [my annoying coworker] could be playing espresso guitar again.

on a cd, not actually playing a guitar (which, in fact, would be the innermost circle of hell)

try exporting and importing with text files if you haven't already

My personal nightmare is my current work project, which is hugely boring and frustrating and involves me having to turn qualitative website write-ups into pseudo-quantitative 'data'. It's good practise for me I suppose cause it goes directly against my predeliction for hedging everything, but by god it's tiresome.

First period gym during the swimming unit.
The very idea of working at McDonald's.
Being served pilaf every day of my life.

My personal nightmares

Detox

School (ah thank god that one's over for good)

Mowing the lawn when I come home on Sunday afternoon without any sleep having danced all night and mashed my brain up something awful. This one's the worst actually, I went to sleep in the dew one time.

Maria, in my school there were girls who'd taken time and effort with hair and make-up who, when swimming unit came, said they were menstrual for weeks on end.

Going to prison. I have an irrational fear of it, even though I don't do, nor have ever done, anything that would require me to be incarcerated.

my own personal hell would be having to move back in with my parents. (living with parents after the age of 20 or so is generally an unpleasant experience, or so it's been for me).

This godawful band I saw Friday night. Pretentious, 10K maniac-ish, too much money and not enought talent crap. I was dying.

Or my 8th period class on the friday before a long weekend. ::shudder::

A world without couches or beds...much scarier than a world without heroes.

I'm hung up on a man...who seems not to think much of anything about me.

(colin and felicity will understand)

― Tad (llamasfur), Thursday, 23 January 2003 03:54 (twenty-three years ago)

I do understand. Believe me, I do.

Being forced, in a Clockwork Orange style, to watch reality tv forever.

Tad: HEARD.

How's the elder law thing going?

Being stuck in an elevator with Fred Durst and Carrot Top.

Bad Standup Comedy. Bureaucracy.

― nellie (minna), Thursday, 23 January 2003 14:21 (twenty-three years ago)

Everyone in my office finding out I have a band, threatening to come to my shows, and constantly asking me to sing for them (and yes, this has happened. And no, I don't sing for them).

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Thursday, 23 January 2003 14:24 (twenty-three years ago)

hahaha Sarah i know that situation all too well

And that's why I don't tell my co-workers about my life outside of work. :)

(colin and felicity will understand)

I understand, too!

sorry to hear that. I believe gabbneb also does.

Document review is a nasty and painfully tedious piece of work involving going through boxes -- sometimes warehouses full of boxes -- of documents (or through electronic files nowadays), often off-site. Some lawyers spend years doing nothing but this for a single case. They don't talk about this in law school.

― felicity (felicity), Thursday, 23 January 2003 23:52 (twenty-three years ago)

If you're lucky, you get to go through TIFF files organized in software that was partially written by MEEEE!

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Friday, 24 January 2003 00:24 (twenty-three years ago)

two weeks pass...

Greetings everyone from my lovely 5-box document review!

Peronal hell is not something I think about at 2.33AM.
