We put everything in place to switch on our first data customer come Monday night. This is the culmination of nearly a year of hard work for me. I should be excited, but instead I'm just exhausted.
I've decided that I love the automatic ticket machines at movie theaters. I love not needing to interact with another human being who will look at you strange...

Today I was reminded of how happy I am that I'm not the boss any longer. I hate coordinating people, and I really hate that they can't make choices for themselves. "How's it going?" "The IP addresses aren't configured on this computer." "Do you know how to configure them?" "Yes." After a few seconds wait while he stares at me blankly, "Well, configure them." "Okay."...

Eh, to each his own.

Is now where you get frozen in carbonite?
Today:
- I started on the massive project to rip all my CDs. At a rate of roughly eight minutes per CD, I'm guessing I could get it done in eighteen days of ten hour shifts. Thus, I'm guessing I'll have it done about the same time the rapture hits.
- I avoided doing something at work that I didn't think was a good idea...

They were probably upset because they wouldn't be able to catch the re-runs of The OC.

Now!
I'm tired of having that entry there. It's unusual for me to lash out like that.
I'm really tired and want Taco Bell. I'm obviously not fully in my right mind. Oddly, I'm also thinking about starting to commute to work by bike. Further proof that I'm going insane? Who knows.
Farmer's market tomorrow morning and a long weekend of reading. That's what I need.

Yea, that seems to run true for almost any shirt. I'll think it's cool, and then after I see it only goes up to a large, I'll think it's the dumbest shirt ever.

I've learned to take your silent approval as I'd take someone else's panegyric.
Today after answering the same question for the-I-don't-knowst time in the last five months, I punched the whiteboard in my office hard enough to tear the skin of three knuckles on my left hand. I really don't like to be asked the same question repeatedly just because people don't like the answer.
supremepizzaman:
Weak.
supremepizzaman:
Did you have that moment of: "man, that was dumb" after you hit it?
That part is the worst.

Still tired. I recommend seeing Batman Begins if you have any soul. I'm considering inventing a grilled cheese and teriyaki chicken sandwich.

Today at work: go-to guy; people waiting three-deep to talk to me at more than one point in the day.
Today at home: space monkey; I can't read a simple sentence properly and lack the attention span to watch a cartoon.

I think the universe is trying to tell both of us to take the day off and fucking go back to bed.

For a change of pace, I thought I might actually write about my life for a moment. Bizarre, I know.
Work is eating me alive right now. Before the end of the month, I'll be responsible for starting the data services for our first cellphone company. That said company is one of the largest regional carriers in the US, there is utter chaos surrounding the...

Seems like you're approaching some of the largest decisions in life. Cars and Houses.
Maybe you should just split the difference and get an RV.

Another quiet, calm weekend. I saw Howl's Moving Castle today and Mr. and Mrs. Smith yesterday. Later, I'll read some and go to sleep early.
I'm becoming increasingly boring, it seems.

aww I was going to go and see mr and mrs smith on friday but ended up seeing sin city instead 
Nothing like a mandatory team-building retreat with my fellow engineers to reinforce how much I hate everyone.

You should bring a chainsaw with you or something.
That's what I thought about.
