OK, I'm having one of the worse days in recent memory, and it's not helped by this USA Today poll.

GO VOTE NOW. It's running 91% in favour of a constitutional amendment banning gay marrage! Thanks to wanderingaengus for the heads-up.

I feel better now. Despite the fact that I am still at work making PowerPoint slides, things have improved, as follows:

- Turns out I misread that poll. It was running ~90% AGAINST amending the constitution. Phew.
- Rescheduled conference call (it's a long, painful story which I will share some other time, but friends-locked as it's all work-related) went well this evening. Really well, all things considered. Yes, we have to get the slides to the client by noon tomorrow, but it still went well.
- Help on this project!
- Lots of people have been telling me it's Not My Fault, and to stop worrying.

Things that improved my life last night, although I won't get much use out of 'em tonight:

- I bought a CD player! Finally! Well, really it's a DVD player but at present it's hooked up to my stereo. I'll deal with the fancy hardware required to make it talk to my antiquated TV later.
- I bought the last Jennifer Crusie, the one that's now out in paperback. They're my comfort books.
- Nice long chat with raithen.

And L is coming in tomorrow night, yay! Now, granted I may have to work part of the weekend (oh please God let it not be so), but this is a Good Thing.

Right, back to work.

Oh look, the Web server's back. How nice.

Toughest part is done. Onward, ever onward!
