I just spent an hour fighting with my scanner to get it to scan documents to PDFs instead of BMPs.
Figuring out how to go about changing the settings should not have been that complicated. Of course, it would have helped if I had remembered that the only manual I have is in virtual form... or, if there was a hard copy, where I'd put the stupid thing. That might have saved me 15 minutes.
Now I just need to figure out what the settings need to be to reduce the file size to something reasonable. At least Yahoo didn't puke when it tried to attach them to the emails I was sending... unlike the previous twelve attempts.
Mind you, today has been a stupid day overall. It's a good thing my boss doesn't mind if I get in ridiculously late... because I managed to sleep through all of my alarms again. Let's just say that most of you in the Eastern time zone were probably already back from lunch by the time I got to work. It was suggested that I rig up some kind of system so that the alarm clock triggers a sprinkler over my bed. Though I'd probably find a way to sleep through that, too.

Though my mind is boggling at the thought of a device that would allow you to shit automatically as part of the wake-up ritual. (I think they have them already... they call them "bedpans". ;) )
