Cup of coffee. Prepping to proctor and exam...then meet with Finance to crunch some numbers for next year's health insurance. We're actually lowering rates. Woohoo!

lappy or desktop. i am really happy with the vostro 1510 i picked up after my bag got stolen. its really light i wish they had done the same finish on the top as the inside the gloss finish as already stratched. just designed and ordered a laptop skin for it. i need to get a new neoprene laptop sleave for it as well.
Desktop. Work gets me a new laptop every 3 years.
I need something that holds 3-4 hdd's. I should really look at the crap dell email me more often. a few days ago, they were offering the sc440 server for $199

Back from a nice hike in the woods with the pups. As much as I hate seeing rain, there's something magical about days like today, mist rising up from the ground and creek, and there's this wonderful earthy, mushroomy, minerally smell in the air. Yeah, I know what's coming, and no, it isn't me. Canadian geese and mallards honking it up, saw a small herd of whitetails. Despite living within city limits, there is a decent amount of nature to enjoy around here.

I agree with Moe..I enjoy foggy/rainy days..Sunshine is over-rated..

Right now I'm at work..surfing the net..the boss is playing golf right now in the mud..he's hardcore. I was updating sales figures..we already matched last years sales with more than 6 weeks to go which is awesome..it means we'll all get nice year end bonuses..I'm also working on a postcard mailing going out to 400 funeral homes..so fun..but it's a Friday so I can't complain..

I just finished reading the last 10 or so posts in the Kzone dying thread. After reading that, Ive decided to put my house up for sale. Wife won't be happy but I think if she reads the jerseyness going on there, she'll be cool with it.:-o

I just ran over o CVS and on my way back I saw a cop and a tow truck. Not too unusual, but they were trying to jimmy the door on the cop car. The dude locked himself out. :smash: :lol:

The boy finally fell asleep so once my daughter is done eating her oatmeal lunch, I'll be doing some homework reading.

Wrapping things up at work..I freaking love that we close down at Noon on Fridays...especially when ski season finally rolls around..once Blue mountain opens..my Friday routine is getting changed at work, hitting up sheetz for sugar free red bull and Ghetto nachos and then on the lift at Blue mountain the true mountain before 1PM..

I'm starving like marvin..I'm gonna get a heady ass'd lunch somewhere..something MSY..even better than Subway..if that's possible..something with bacon..

no, but I did remove the NJ from my profile:uzi:

the commute from PA would kill me if I has to do it everyday

In my old apartment complex there were a couple people who would commute to Manhatten...they'd drive 15 minutes to the park and ride by 33 and 78..then take a bus into the city..crazy but they only paid 700 bucks a month in rent..

Awesome..when I started working for the monument company, Fridays were a normal workday but the boss said that if sales remained good and we got all our work done..we'd go to a halfday on Friday..I'm so spoiled by it now that if I help out with deliveries on a Friday morning and we don't get back until 1:00PM..I feel like I worked an hour of overtime. I occasionally have a Saturday appointment but it's typically for under 2 hours.

Right now gonna get small..and keep surfing the net..so much to look at and I still have a few dozen threads to catch up on here..

I have the same kinda deal with my boss, so long as my work for the week is done before I leave on Thursday, he's got no problems with me taking Friday off. Some weeks I'm at work until 8 or 9 pm just to finish up.

That was one nice thing about my old job... our work week was over at 12:30PM Friday... and "full time" was only 32.5 hours a week.

The boss sucked a$$ though........

Right now, trying to stay awake. I think I'll go make some coffee....
