Extreme Ironing

Extreme ironing – the latest danger sport that combines the thrills of an extreme outdoor activity with the satisfaction of a well pressed shirt.

Went in to work again today, around 11AM. I was struggling more with my Flash navigation for our Content Management System (hereafter known as The Mothership). I’ve been working on this thing for a long while, and kept banging my head against what has turned into some fairly involved AS code. All afternoon, I kept testing and testing. Locally, things…

Drinks++

After work, I called up Steph and she agreed to go out with me for a drink. The two of us hung out at the Artful Dodger for a while, and threw down a few. A bit later, Liz joined us (after having hung out with her dad for the night). I had a good time, and was happy to…

O Coffee, Where Art Thou?

Around 4:20 PM, I headed out looking for more coffee. Earlier, I asked the girl behind the counter at Starbucks what time they closed. She told me 5PM. When I wandered over… I found the doors locked, and saw people still standing behind the counter. Despite my Disney eyes, they kept the doors closed. I ended up hitting a nearby…

Caffeine++

Everything around work was closed down, and so my only option was to hit a Starbucks around the corner. On the way there this morning, I happened across a few stickers. Not sure what these are, but here you go: Phonograph ScientistsMonstrum Sepsis On the way back in to the mart, I saw some workers hosing off the statues lining…

En Route to Work

Got lazy this morning, and hopped a cab to work. Riding down the Kennedy, I decided to try to snap a shot of the skyline. All day today, the weather’s been weird. Cloudy morning, thunderstorms at noon, clear skies and sun all afternoon, and thunderstorms again all night.

Cleaning

Sorry – not much here today. I cleaned up the apartment a fair amount, and spent the day just lazing around. Went out and rented a movie. Ordered food. I’m going in to work tomorrow, which is probably why I’m so slothful today. I expect I’ll be putting in a full day, so I’m getting all my weekend relaxing now,…

Ehhhh

I’m snapping at people at work. I’m sighing a lot, and feeling pretty frustrated. It’s not always like this, but at certain moments of the day I’ll get super stressed out. A few more days, and it’ll all be over. It gets like this, during the summer time. Again, I’m not even sure why I’m complaining here… Ben ended up…

This is my workplace

I happened to walk by this card, just sitting in the hallway, on my way in to work. I didn’t really think anything of it until I mentioned it in passing to my coworkers who all said “Yeah, I saw that too.” Everyone was unphased. After thinking a bit, I decided to go back out and take a picture of…

:twitches:

See, this is the thing about working funky hours. It’s 1:30 AM. I’ve been back home in my apartment for about an hour now. Discount, say, twenty minutes for blog updates and the like, which gives us about 40 minutes of non-work decompression time. Right now, my body is saying go to sleep, but my mind is saying that I…
