This tablet wants me to shut down any open graphics software before installing the drivers for it and since I do have some graphics software open - with mid-process projects open - I'm going to postpone the installation and set up until I get a chance to get these things to a reasonable stopping point. But it's kind of disappointing, tbh. But at the same time, I'm just being lazy... and I really don't want to risk losing my projects, train of thought, or screwing up the driver installs. So, it'll wait until I'm more awake (I'm a little sleepy right now) and the projects are at a better place to close them up.

Aw! I wonder if I'll come across the same issue or similar issue with installment. I hope you get around to playing with your new techi toy soon.

I've got an old desktop that I need to find a part for in order for it to work and I just haven't. It's been so long, I can't even remember the name of the part. e.e"
I'm really tired today too. I feel like I'm puddering around the house half-a$$ing my cleaning/chores.

Thank you. I'll work out the tablet thing soon. I was looking forward to playing with it a bit now, but am too tired to bother dealing with the details of closing down the current work and installing drivers. It's weird, I know.

Any reason why you're tired today? Do you know?
I was fine earlier, but my energy just bottomed out. For me, it might be a result of eating lunch out, which included a couple things that I don't normally eat. Actually, that's probably it - at least in part. -sigh-

@Wildfire: I'm not active anymore. I don't get out and walk or do yard work. I don't have a job to do. I think a lot of my tiredness comes from the lack of motivation to do things. That's something I've been working on for quite some time.
Food has a lot to do with my energy levels as well.
I did set up my new tablet, it's unique! Turns out the tablet views colors a lot more vibrantly than the laptop. Now I've been stuck on the thought process of how colorful are my old art pieces actually? Am I seeing color tones wrong on this laptop? =o

@Koah: Ahhh, yeah, I get that. I'm not as active as I was pre-2020 either. 2020 definitely didn't help with any of that type of thing with the lockdowns and limitations put on accessing the gym or the yoga studio or even going to the beach or a park... things that help a person stay healthy! It's a bad cycle. :(

Interesting observation with the tablet versus the computer. Somebody else said a similar thing recently...

Ugh. I had a 'chat' with the district manager today. Because some woman called her to complain about me not being welcoming enough.

@Another Movie Addict: Oh jeeze. Somebody didn't have enough to do with their own life and actually called the district manager ... because you weren't "welcoming enough"?? What does that even mean? I'm sorry AMA - what a pain.

Basically I made her feel like I didn't want her there. Like I was annoyed. So I wasn't smiling hard enough through my mask.

@Another Movie Addict: LOL. Oh, the joys of working with the public... and in a period of time where they can't even tell you're smiling in their direction! :( I'm sorry.

There ya go! And yes, it happened. It was inevitable, really. Jobs that interact with the customers can be difficult. When do you go in today?

@Another Movie Addict: Has that gone easier for you than opening?
I hate how dark it is these days by that time of evening (much earlier, really).
Do you have anything planned for your morning, then?
