Is It Contagious?

Our server seems to be sharing the same sluggish symptoms I’ve had all week. I’m wondering if it’s contagious?

We’ve had a light case of sniffles and throat tickles this week and I attribute most of my wacky week to that. It seems that little health quirks can sure put you on tilt. Even if it’s not the reason, it makes me feel better to put it there. *wink* Whatever it is, it’s been weird. I feel like I’ve been spending more time dog paddling this week than being productive. It may be a natural balance of the universe coming off a few weeks of super productivity but whatever it is I’m not happy about it.

Coincidentally, my husband has been working on the server all week trying to tune it to the traffic influx and he’s not happy about it. And when the server and it’s admin aren’t happy - ‘aint nobody happy. LOL

The poor thing is just being over run with morning traffic and it’s having moments when it just can’t keep up. Naturally, this will happen when someone has just recently activated their adoption profile or tried to access one of my many files in our database, or just plain on my busiest blog traffic day so a slight panic ensues. He’s guessing the traffic from his google traffic module could be largely to blame (wouldn’t that be ironic? LOL) I feel bad for him because he can usually nail problems pretty quick and this one is dragging on teasing him. I tried to lighten the mood this morning telling him maybe it just needs some love and stroking as that usually works for me. *giggle* He said I was a nut. I wish I had two pills to give him for the server with instructions to call back in the morning. It’s a time eater and understandably frustrating when you can’t get anything productive done because you’re babysitting a sick server.

Funny that mornings are the worst for the server because I am so NOT a morning person myself. I get up when I absolutely have to (I have a serious mattress over mind problem but I’m okay with it) and I procrastinate doing the things I don’t want to by sitting at my computer. This week it’s taken more to get me away from it and I’ve been late a few times because of it. Hmmmm.

Here’s to a weekend break and a little R&R. If tomorrow is another day, then next week is a new one. *wink*
