Tomorrow is my last day of work. It's weird. There have already been a couple of goodbyes from people who wont be at work tomorrow. I cleaned out some of my desk, and I've cleaned an amazing amount of crap off my desk and shelves. I still have the pictures of the girls up on the cork board behind my desk. I need to remember to bring in a bag or two ( Read more... )

Day 26 - A movie that you love but everyone else hates

Ok, I'm just gonna have to pass on this question. I can't think of a single movie that I love that at least one of my friends and loved ones don't also at least like. Sorry.

Thunderstorms rolled through last night. They were really stunning, brought some much needed rain, and a bit of a ( Read more... )

Day 25 - The most hilarious movie you have ever seen

Monty Python’s Quest for the Holy Grail

Star Trek IV is probably the funniest one of the bunch.

I overslept this morning. Not so much that I was late to work, but late enough that the morning was rushed, and I had to skip a few things that I generally do in the morning. Things like ( Read more... )

I'm getting significant amounts of overtime this week. I've worked late just about every day, and yesterday I was at work from 7am till 9:45pm. Plus I'm going back this morning to wrap up inventory. Can you say weekend shift incentive?

Now if only Alice didn't seem to need to wake up at 5am every morning, I could have slept in a little.

There isn't really anything quite so much fun as a 5:30 am wake up call for work on a Saturday.

Even if I did volunteer.

Well, except maybe for a 5 am wake up call. Luckily being a Saturday there isn't any traffic, so I got an extra 30 minutes.

Going to go drink coffee now. And drive to work.

Books I've completed in January:

….

Ok, I hope you enjoyed the review of all the books I finished last month. As you can see I am well on my way toward completing my goal of 50 books by the end of the year. I'm close to finishing 2 books, but if things continue at this pace, I'll be lucky if I read 25 books this year.

1. Which open-all-night ( Read more... )

There's a science blog that I read, called Centauri Dreams. Its charter, as taken from the website:

In Centauri Dreams, Paul Gilster looks at peer-reviewed research on deep space exploration, with an eye toward interstellar possibilities.
He usually updates at least once a day, and it's a nice way to keep up on what's being looked at out there. ( Read more... )

Just after New Years I will be starting my microeconomics course. Unlike every other course I've ever taken, this one will be entirely online. I hadn't even intended to take an online course, but they cancelled the classroom session a couple of days ago, so I had to go back on campus and sign up. I couldn't do it online. There's a little irony ( Read more... )
