Gotta Vent

I'm fine right now, but i'll tell you about my cyst later. I gotta vent. My web design teacher is stupid. Why would you have us take a page that was designed with HTML tables, and make it into CSS, when it is easier and better to do this particular page in HTML? She said it took her two hours to convert the page to CSS. I'm like, it took me 5 minutes to create it using tables. In the real world, you would look at those options and go, "Table." I guess if the client has their heart set on tables, i would go "ok" and do tables anyways. as it were I'm not designing websites for other people and if they were to ask me, i'd say ok, but I do choose what form the layout is designed in. I worked on it a little more and discovered something after testing various methods to make it easier. I found one way, that with a little bit of tweaking, that might work. I've also thought htis through. It's five points for every page you don't change to a CSS layout. It almost is worth it to lose 5 points out 50 for this. But I'm too much of a perfectionist. If I get to the point that I'm punching people in the face, I'll just take 5 points.

Pain and Pus

I just have to say this: ouch. Never ever get a Cyst. They hurt. Also, if you drink caffeine on a regular basis, don't stop. I have a horrible headache right now and i assume it's because I haven't had caffeine is a few days. On the plus side, my cyst doesn't feel as bad. Basically this Cyst hurts like a mother. I went to see a doctor and apparently i have to have surgery. That sucks. At least I can cure it, right? Apparently surgeons don't operate on the weekend. Unless you go to the emergency room. I've heard horror stories of Cyst removal and emergency room. Basically the cyst is on my bum. It hurts no matter what I do, especially when I walk, sit, lay on my back, and get in and out of my car. Actually it hurts no matter what, but it is not as bad if I lay on my stomach or my sides. Kneeling on chairs isn't as bad. I have to get the week off from work somehow. I don't know if I'll be able to do that. I'm gonna call our Human Resource person tomorrow and see what she can do. She's nice. I really hate missing work, but I can't work with this pain. I know what happens when people call in sick. They can't find anyone to replace them, and everyone has to stay late. It really sucks being on that end. However it really sucks for me to be in pain. I'm actually sick, unlike some people. I'm gonna lay on my bed and watch tv.
