February 5, 2001 So, like I said, I have been having computer problems…problems meaning that I spilt water on the keyboard of my laptop, and now it isn't working. After several calls to the people at Dell, and then another one to my dad…I finally decided to have Dell pick up my computer so that they can possibly do something to it. I was really impressed at the service that Dell offered. Of course, my computer is still under warrantee, and I don't have to pay for anything…but they said that some guy from Airborne Express would come to my door and they would take my computer. The guy from Airborne was supposed to come after four o'clock today, but when I got back to my room after class…I kind of noticed that my computer was gone. Apparently the guy from Airborne had come early, and my roommate had taken my computer down the depot, so that it could be shipped to where ever it need to be shipped. That in itself kind of worried me because I was told that I was to write all the information on the package so that it would be sent to the right place..and have all the right information on it…. It was all taken care of for me…but I still am worried… I guess, though, that there really isn't anything that I can do about it now… After the whole ordeal with my computer, I had to run a couple of errands for APO…stupid treasurer stuff. I had to get some vouchers signed by my advisor who is never there, but still insists that he sign all of the voucher… I mean, just because he is one of the Vice Presidents here at ISU…that doesn't mean that he has to assume all power in all of the organizations that he is linked to. Last year…he was still an advisor, but we never saw him. For some reason…he has become one of the chief advisors, and all the power has gone to his brain. I have been told that the advisors' meetings are held at his house…and he still doesn't show up… How f-ed up is that?!! So, needless to day…he wasn't there to sign my vouchers, and I had to deal with his secretary…again. I wouldn't have a problem with her if she wasn't so damn snooty… So, I have really begun to give her a bit of attitude. I am really sick of this whole situation. I have gotten to the point where I just hand her the vouchers, and I tell her to have the advisor sign it whenever he is in…and then I make her mail the vouchers to the treasurers office. I know, I'm being lazy…but when I have to make at least five trips to one building to the next…it kind of gets tiring… I digress….
