Thought I'd save a vacation day and come in to work today. Besides, it's nearly deserted so I might actually get some stuff done. Like, picking my Fantasy MX riders, etc.! :D Seriously though, it feels like a Monday. But, tomorrow is Cooperland, baby! Woohoo! (Yes, I'm rubbing it in. :debil: )

Watch for a new movie on Sunday. This one should be bigger and better than the last one from Wardy's. Hopefully better quality video, too.

I'm on stand by. Work if something comes up but don't get paid until it happens.

Talk about no traffic this morning.... I think I must be the only person in DC that actually had to work today..... At least my 25 mile drive home will only take 25 minutes as opposed to 2-3 hours.... :p

I'm working but I think I must be coming down with something... *cough cough*. Yeah... that's the ticket... *cough cough*

I think that around noon the pain and suffering will become so unbearable that I'll have to leave! :)

I guess I should have titled this thread "Anyone Else At Work Today?", since it's clear that very little actual work is getting done! I came in earlier than normal, so I get to leave at 2:00. At about 9:00, one of the other engineers will be rolling in and I am doing some testing on multiple projects for him, so I will be busy for a while. I've also got some 1st article samples to proof out (read: take lots of measurements, then do lots of strength and durability tests. Yawn.).

But hey, the lack of traffic was very nice this morning. Only about 1/4 as many crazies on the road as usual. (I was out there doing my part!)

Freakin month end accounting close! I was so pissed today as I got a front row parking spot at the train station. Chicago was a ghost town this morning. Sad thing is, we have half day Fridays in the Summer - but doesn't look like thats gonna happen for me today, either.

Well... at least I can look forward to tonight.... GOING TO RED BUD!! :confused:

Here I am really working and try to call the Dr he is gone. Last Tuesday I have several cardiac tests and he mentions to call him thurs for results. I mention it is the 4th so he says call Friday we will be open. I just got off the phone and you guessed it we will be open Monday thankyou for calling.

XPred, Once again, not funny.... "Thinking about going riding"...... This sucks... I guess I'll just sit at work and hopefully someone will post a ride report so I can at least dream of riding while sitting at work.... (Don't mind the motorcycle noises I'm making, they should stop here shortly....) :confused:
