What a day!
I don't know what time to say my day started, but I'm going with pretty damn early.
My fiancee left to 'go cook something' around three am last night and put up an away message. I went ahead and finished my webpage work, did my exercises, and got ready for bed. That was about an hour and she still wasn't back and I began to worry and continually called her cell. About five o'clock she returns to let me know she had fallen asleep when she was changing for bed and the only thing that woke her up was the start of storm.
With that heavy burden off my mind, I finally went to sleep. I intended to get up at 9, but didn't finally get out of bed till 11. I showered, got dressed, and made some damn good ramen (woulda had beef but I felt rushed). Then the UPS guy beat down our apartment door to deliver Joe his Foreman grill from home. Bitchin'. I piddled away the last half an hour before walking with Joe to the bus stop for the first day of work. *sigh* Got there about 20 minutes early. At least now I know what time the good ole BT shows up. On the bus was some dude hittin' on this chubby asian chick, Joe said he was Canadian, but I don't believe that insult. The dude kept talking about all this worthless crap he saw in Germany. He even claimed some German town was the most contaminated in the world; I thought it was Chernobyl, which I know is NOT in Germany but in some Russian or former Soviet state. *shrug*.
Fifteen minutes later we're at the library and began our walk towards Torg. We get to work fifteen minutes early and talk to Anne about our short break and the like. Sno is soon to follow (damn him!), then spoon and Courtney. She got to go to Canada! I am jealous >:O She went to Montreal (damn separatist) and Toronto. No mention of the Hockey Hall of Fame though, just the CN Tower and the Falls *shrugs*. Introductions occured all day long and with just about everybody in ISC. The head mac rep has a loaded G5 and a 23" Cinema... bastard. Onto a 2 hour long meeting about what we're doing this summer. I'm in charge of equipment stuff (laptops, network cards, etc). JOY! Roger and I made fools out of ourselves trying to set up the projection screen so Anne could use it for a whole 5 minutes. Then, downstairs to pick up our Dell laptops (despite being a Dell, pretty bitchin'. I can take it home with me. 1.2 ghz 512 RAM ain't bad on Win2k). Then into our cubicle-like office where Roger sits, with his G5. *jealous*
So, spend the rest of the day in our office. I got the test PC with XP (haha); Sno, to my right, is pimpin' a ME system; an OS X Panther G3 sits between me and Joe, and he has a ME machine as well. Har har! Ah well, spent the rest of work reading over the horribly written VTnet documentation and talking with Sno. Was going to take TCB home, but it began to rain, so Joe and I just jumped on the UMall bus, walked to Kroger to grab paper towels for the apartment and walked home in the rain. Long day and I still have to watch the Pistons play tonight. I think I'll find myself cheering in Detroit in two sports -- basketball and football (Kevin Jones baby! -- and hating them in hockey. F'in' Wings... Weird world, eh?
Time to fix some hamburger!
