It's 85 degrees here in Vermont and I have my marketing plan due today. I am totally unmotivated. Gotta work!

Yesterday i was at work for 4 1/2 hours before i did anything work related. As for today, i've been here a total of 7 hours and have prolly spent about 1 hour doing actual work.

I'm on lunch for another 27 minutes...but don't think I'll stop posting when I clock back in...."It's all about the BOOBIES!"

Quotes from the movie Office Space....
Bob #1: We're trying to get a feel for what people do around here.. so, could you just walk us through a typical day for you?
Peter: Well, sure Bob. I generally come in at least 15 minutes late. I use the side door; that way Lumbergh can't see me, and after that I just sorta space out for about an hour--
Bob #2: Ah wait--space out?
Peter: Yeah. I just stare at my desk. But it looks like I'm working. I do that for, uh.. probably another hour after lunch too. I'd say, in a given week, I probably only do about 15 minutes of real, actual.. work.

So, is it skydiving or something deep in our personalities that have produced such unmoviated workers out of us? By the way, I did not use to be this way.

Tell me 'aboot' it - it's like 75 here and the clouds have made themselves as scarce as a lone KKK member at a Black Panters Kick Boxing Convention

I wonder if Bill Von works hard or if he is just smart? If he works hard too, I want what he is taking!

Well I seem to vary between 80 hour work weeks and weeks that I go to work and just fool around all day. Lately it's been the latter. A project that I've been working on for over a year just got cancelled, so I'm taking a two-week 'work vacation' (i.e. I'm showing up, but I don't plan on actually doing anything.) Next week I think I'll start looking for my next project.

Damn, that's almost my exact same schedule.
I did get the Radio Disney Studio back up just in time for their broadcast today. So, today, I kinda earned my keep, but some days . . . whoo . . . the trouble with doin' nuthin' is, how do you know when you're done?

-a ring voltage generator for a PBX system
-the Qualcomm common test fixture (tester for all infrastructure boards)
-the Globalstar Ethyl phone (GSP-1600) available at Verizon!

I should be at work three days a week but this flu has been keeping me in the dorm. That and I just got an email saying that all of the tech support workers are being laid off at the end of the semester, so I just quit. Might as well use the last two weeks of the semester to study!

That explains a lot. Your posts are usually so technical and thought out. Your job seems to fit with that.
By the way, that sounds really fun. Maybe I'll get to do something similar with my comp. sci. degree someday.

I am working, I should be jumping. Argh! I've been trying to get out to the DZ for three hours now, but just haven't been able to leave my desk.
Oh the joys of the software engineer.

The dark side huh. Yeah, that's what we call you up here too! (Just kidding) Yes, I'm considering it, you actually know how to pay your professionals there, plus, as you all know, one American dollar is worth like, a boatload Canadian. But I love the island, and don't know if I really want to leave. It's the most beautiful place in the world, in my opinion. And I've been all over Europe and in some of the states. We'll see. Oregon is pretty nice (and yes I'm sure other parts of the country are wonderful too, but I'm a west coast girl)

I am at work now, actually in trial. Fun stuff, involves allegations of sex abuse of a 4 and 8 year old.
