I'm sure Aunt Karen Sue would agree!! So I went to sign on here and use my Jessica Rudy email - because I am trying to get more things routed through it - it's hard to change your name in a technology world - i'm enough of a computer junkie that checking two emails is fine with me right now! but - I go to sign on here and it says under name - Matt Rudy - and I think - Karen Sue was right - this is crazy!!
Then it comes into my slightly confused brain that every time I update my buzz or gchat status (those of you without gmail accounts should get one - they are fun!) anyway everytime I try to update through my Jessica Rudy Email it looks like Matt Rudy updated to buzz - very weird - no one could figure it out - and matt was less than thrilled to have his name attached to things like - i love kohls sales!
So I figure okay there is a glitch - google has screwed up ! but before I write them a nasty email i'll look through my account and see what it says under name - so under name - sure enough it says - name on account - Matt Rudy - Name used for emails - Jessica Rudy - hmmmmm now i'm really really stumped -
Finally under account settings (which of course is the last button i try push or find) I am allowed to change my Account name! So horray - 2 hours later - i am officially jessica rudy - i knew you'd all be soooo proud!!
Matt takes the GRE tomorrow - and then its steak and champaign (at home - but still a splurge/ treat) any prayers for a sharp mind tomorrow will be appreciated! he knows so much - but my math skills of making small errors and flipping numbers or dropping negative signs has rubbed off!! hopefully the Lord will grant him a sound mind and calm heart tomorrow!!
As he mentioned in a previous post - I have talked to my boss about being a permanent fixture in the lab (when i first got here it was kinda a well i dunno what i'm doing and he doesn't know how long he has funding for me etc etc) but I talked to him about now that we have this 5 year grant i'd like to talk to you about staying and taking on more responsibilities - and he was in agreement - horray ! always good when your boss thinks your a worthy member of them team!
I constantly walk around and repeat grandma and grandpa statements - "you can only control you" and " you only get 24 hours in a day you get to choose how to spend them!" "count your blessings!"
I definitely count you family in my blessings!
love to all
Jessica RUDY!
Way to beat the system!!!!
ReplyDeleteThere are many things on Blogger that I have not figured out. I think that one reason kids have an easier time with technology is they don't care if they have to use trial and error to find what they are looking for. Adults have less time to sit and play with a computer until it's fixed.
My main coping mechanism is use what I know how to use...forget the rest.
Thanks for the post. Will be praying for Matt as he takes the GRE tomorrow! Let us know how it goes!!
