So, two weeks ago, I went to the doctor, got antibiotics, and started feeling better. And I needed to! I engaged in Extreme Tooling at work on account of a big project. I went to the office on Saturday and from there, went straight to Cinematic TitanicThis was basically most of the original cast of MST3K doing their thing in front of a live ( Read more... )

Well, since I'm not currently busy and I'm too tired to do anything else (but not unconscious), I can finally catch up on some stuff.

Two Fridays Ago: mazecontroller ran a game of Paranoia for a bunch of us. I played Arth-R-DNT, and mrsmetallian played Bord-R-CLY. It was a very interesting session, basically a standard "the team has been given a relatively simple task to ( Read more... )

Let's see how this week went:

- I have 3 projects (big, medium, and small) going on at work.

- I've been waking up feeling kind of crappy every morning lately and I don't know why. More to the point, I feel so crappy that it wakes me up, so I never get enough sleep. (Moreso than usual, I mean.) It's very frustrating and makes everything else more ( Read more... )

I clicked on this article today, thinking it would be another diatribe against working in an office, which is supposed to be soul-crushing and all that.

Now, I like working in an office. If I have to be stuck doing a particular activity for hours at a time on a regular basis, I'd rather it involve predictable hours and travel time in a clean and ( Read more... )

Apparently, it's just a nasty virus that's been going around the local area this week ( Read more... )

Saturday: Worked on the newsletter and some stuff for work.

Sunday: Gym and Star Wars. (We met old, bitter Jar Jar Binks!)

Monday: After abusing Eagan's "half-price appetizers before 6:00" offer, we went to a The Sword (excellent, of course, but their set was way too short), Machine Head (I'm actually not too familiar with them but they did a ( Read more... )

• It's been almost two weeks since we've had significant snowfall. Every time I walk across the street or drive somewhere, I grin a little.
• Enjoyed a fine New Year's Eve celebration at fortinbras16 and shandril's, followed by a hangover-freelight and bacon-filled morning. (Did anybody else notice that their clothes smelled strongly of bacon afterward? We didn't notice ( Read more... )

Today I:

* Woke up early to wait around for buses in heavy wind and snow.

* Spent most of the day helping other people (in once case getting attitude in return - though to be fair I eventually got an apology) instead of taking care of my own affairs.

* Discovered that the company that made the slippers we like has stopped making them ( Read more... )

So I haven't been posting much lately, simply because I've been too busy with things. Many of them have been fun (or at least preparation for fun) so it's not as bad as it sounds. A quick recap, as best as I can recall:

03/14/2008: Attended a concert at The Rave featuring various local bands with crystalodenkirk & Co. The bands were not all to my taste (though ( Read more... )

With work and otherwise. I want to post pictures from the weekend but have no time. I have not gotten home earlier than 8:30 so far this week, and probably won't for the rest of the week.

In other news, my copy of 3 Inches of Blood's latest arrived today. I've only just started listening to it, but it appears that they are continuing to deliver ( Read more... )
