Yep. Pretty much. Last night I was desperately trying to get the quarter closed and send our 3rd quarter financial numbers up to our parent company. We’d had a wild day and while I was close, the stupid Fixed Asset Depreciation schedule just wouldn’t balance.
No, don’t let your eyes glaze over. I had to leave and I didn’t want to work over the weekend. My son has started skeet shooting with an eye toward competition. That’s hard to do in the city or even in the suburbs. It’s a real hike to where he shoots.
So I left work, met the family, and while my son was blowing away doubles with his 20 gauge, I was using the pen and the Q1 to beat that stubborn Fixed Asset schedule into submission.
The gun range isn’t quite in the middle of nowhere but you can see the middle of nowhere from the benches. The Q1 is so light, I worked in the car to keep it from being carried off by mosquitos. But it’s small enough that the steering wheel didn’t get in the way. Because the Q1 is primary machine, I had everything I needed with me. Mission accomplished.
Instead of going in to the office today, I got to relax and mow my lawn. No wait…that’s not right.
















“I worked in the car to keep it from being carried off by mosquitos” - Classic line!!
But i know what you mean. With a UMPC theres an ability to continue where you left off. That’s just not possible with Windows Mobile/Smartphones.
Watch out for those mozzies!
