I have no idea when I started this one. The inner parts are old and must have been done at least five years ago. I didn’t realize there were old doodles in any of the mostly filled notebooks in my desk, but I found this one when I was hunting around for something to take to the last staff meeting.

That interior part looks loose and sloppy to me. I don’t doodle like that anymore, which is kind of weird. Who knew that doodle styles evolved over time?!

This was a week of meetings and training sessions. Today’s horror was a 3 hour long workshop on using Outlook’s calendar. Three. Whole. Hours. The less said about it, the better, I think. Even though it was hands-on, I had plenty of time to doodle, and thank goodness for that, or I may have had to poke someone with sharp, pointy objects. It was only slightly less traumatic than Wednesday’s hour-long presentation on libraries in Second Life.

The bottom right hand corner is new. I’ve posted the rest of the individual doodles before, I think, but not all of them together. And I almost didn’t post them now, because I had a problem with my scanner. You’d think that HP would be able to pre-load its own drivers and software on its machines, but nooooo, that would be too easy. My old drivers were incompatible with the 64-bit version of Vista, so I had to go a-hunting for new ones. I had a moment of panic, because the only drivers I could find by searching HP’s website were for XP and Windows 2000, neither of which would have been helpful.

I managed to find the correct page for Vista drivers for my scanner model, via a posting to a random message board. Thankfully, there was a direct link to the HP page I needed, because I was unable to find it by searching their website. What a pain in the ass! But at least I was able to (finally!) get the right drivers, and more importantly, I don’t have to go buy a new scanner.

This must have been the week for meetings. First, it was yearly evaluations (oh noes!), then the monthly tech services meeting, then today, our little unit meeting. The main topic of discussion in the last two meetings (well, the most interesting to me personally) was the new handling for series statements. Exciting, huh?
