A Little Optimism Can Go A Long Way

I am back to "my project" and feeling more confident. I enjoy prioritizing, reaching out to the buyer and various other people to obtain information or communicate needs. It's not that I didn't see the importance of the other project, I just feel more at home with this one. My "boss" for the last project came over to my desk the other day to thank me for my help, it was really nice.
I still want to strangle whoever thought not making packs and inners straight forward on both the price pages and new item forms was ok, because it makes things rather complicated, but hopefully nothing detrimental will happen if there is an error on my part lol.
The computers had a hiccup today, things slowed way down, I couldn't save to the server or print and whenever I tried to save the computer just made temp files that did not accomplish anything. I went to the IT department for assistance, but found out it was an issue that was not only my own. I saved to the desktop and then P came by and asked me if things were better, that I should have access to the servers again. I was in the middle of a task and did not check, but he sent me an email while I was at lunch asking if everything was working for me. I stated that it was, he responded, "If you need aaaaanything else, let me know." I sent him an email asking for a pony. He said if he had an extra one he would definetly kick it my way. I'm a little concerned that he would kick a pony (shrug).
Had lunch with the "girls" and an entertaining conversation with J from IT about apples and knives. He swore there were not any knives in the kitchen yesterday, but I think it was just because I was distracting him with a Blair Witch reference and he was getting frustrated due to the fact we were talking about the computers he had set up that we were no longer going to be using. Anywho, today the drawer was full of knives and we were talking about their possible removal for the safety of an employee. He mentioned a lock being put on the drawer, having to pick it or go to loss prevention for assistance. We are a comical group.
I'm not feeling as negative about the job "let down" as before. It's pretty fantastic that I was up against one other person when you think about it and that the VP could not decide and wanted to just hire us both. Here is to hoping that they can work something out and offer me a position soon!
