     Well, it’s Tuesday. There isn’t much to report. I think my goal from now on will be posting every other day, since there usually isn’t enough that happens in one day to make posting a good idea.      There’s a furniture liquidation sale at a warehouse across the street from All Tile. I went over there… Continue reading Tuesday

     Alan and his friends got second place in Puzzlehack. Good job guys!      Friday at work I did a lot of stuff that I wasn’t particularly crazy about. Part of it was that none of what I did was expected. Since it’s Friday, I expected to be doing spiffs, but we didn’t. I don’t know why… Continue reading Huzzahs to Alan & Co.

     This is what happend to our CFO on his birthday at All Tile. The warehouse guys (6 or 7 of them) tackled him and used celophane and tape to attach him to his chair. They then wheeled him out into the warehouse, where I chased them down to take the first of those two pictures… Continue reading Happy Birthday, John.

     After cleaning his water (and destroying his bubble nest) yesterday, Stewie has a decent bubble nest today. He likes making his a lot thicker than Brian does. At least I know that he’s happy. He’s such a little fish, still. I hope he’s growing.      Lori called in sick to work today, so I was working… Continue reading Stewie is Happy

     I came in to work today in spite of feeling like I had the stomach flu last night. I did all I could to take it easy before I showed up, so when I got there I felt okay. I only got nauseated once, and it wasn’t that strong. Lori, on the other hand, went… Continue reading I Love my Job

     Visiting Alan in Champaign this weekend was mostly nice. On Saturday, however, he wasn’t awake when I called (being an hour away). So, I asked him to wake up and take a shower before I got there. I called again at 1:30 when I was a block away – he had fallen asleep right after… Continue reading Champaign Visit v11.0

     Work really dragged. Most of what I did with Lori was repetitive, and almost everyone went home early. When I got home, I found out that I got my Leela wig in the mail, but the package didn’t include the sparking ray gun I bought. So, yet again, online retailers mess up my order. First… Continue reading Friday.

     I’m still having a helluva time falling asleep at or before 12, as you can see. Today I went off AIM early and I ordered the wig cap I need for my Leela costume. I talked to Jen and Renee a little, and then I took my stuff from All Tile and started trying to… Continue reading Damn you Clock

     …but it’s one of those necessary evils. It’s one of those things that’s so good and so bad for you that it is evil. I got 6 hours of sleep last night, so this morning I was completely drained. After a meeting with Marc that I almost fell asleep in, Lori introduced me to coffee.… Continue reading Coffee is Evil
