Didn’t know i wasn’t breathing
Didn’t know i had been bleeding
Stupid end of the weekend. Day 4 of being able to sleep in and relax, I imagine that its going to suck to go back to work tomorrow. But lets do the last weeks recap instead.
Last Monday I went out with a couple of people, some of whom I hadn’t ever seen, some of whom I hadn’t seen in times ranging from a few months to a year and a half. Couple of drinks and just generally good clean fun, no doubt about that. Tuesday was wings with some other friends which was also a great time. Wednesday and Thursday afforded me a little bit of downtime which was a welcome relief, then Friday was road tripping across the universe. Or at least down to Iowa to see a good friend. Fun time and i certainly needed to get away from the cities. Back up here Saturday for some stuff around the cities followed by stopping off at the bar. Then Sunday was pretty standard for a nice summer day where i am not at work: riding. Plus lunch with a friend. made a stop off at the bar last night too actually.
Like I said, took a long weekend since I am trying to not accumulate too much vacation time right around now. Seems like it would be a bad idea to have too much more then the company would be willing/able to pay out should there end up being a reduction in force. So, they will pay me a weeks work of vacation, I will not go over that by more then a day or two. But I will certainly be willing to go under that since the last couple of months I will have basically no vacation. Obviously still keeping my eyes open on whats around out there (just like everybody else in the world) but at the moment there ain’t much it seems.
Been continuing to work on various little projects throughout the day/week/month. Nothing too special and actually nothing at all involving Idoru. Not even going to pretend that I have been. Especially since Gallery 3 is still in Alpha release. But I have been working on the laptop hooked up to my TV. Think I am finally going to splurge and get myself a wireless keyboard/mouse combo for it as well. Also highly debating about whether I want to upgrade my palm pilot and pickup an iPod touch. After so many years avoiding that particular empire… its just a damn solid machine so I am highly tempted to say the least. I might even pull the trigger on it today since this is an extra paycheck month.
Other then that, not a whole lot going on right now. Its kinda nice and I am certainly enjoying the fact that the only thing I have to get done today is go grocery shopping. Since the weather is pretty nice I might just sneak another ride in today even. Oh, and keep thinking about whether or not I want to get lasik now that I have had a consult.
