I got this in the mail unexpectedly.
That's extraordinary. I want one.
What if they're not stars at all? What if the night sky is full of titanic far-off lidless eyes, staring in all directions across eternity?

I won a free Twix PB. Go me.

<IronDragoon> I mean, why not?

Four day weekend!

And I don't have any duties!

And I'm about to get out of "you're-new-so-let's-give-you-terrible-duties" phase!
I think we live our lives in other people's hearts and minds. Alone by ourselves we're not very much good at all. But when we let someone else in with their stories and all their sights and sounds and songs and smells and sensations, we suddenly start filling our shelves and boxes with books and books of them and building up our libraries.

If nothing else goes wrong, I'm lined up to get Thursday off~!
I handle other fanfic authors Nanoha-style.  Grit those teeth!  C&C incoming!
Prepare to be befriended!

Quote from: Dracos on November 14, 2011, 12:28:59 PMSeriously, you gotta put in for at least a weekend day off at some point.  They got other testing staff right?

I'm in the dubiously honorable role of 'only hardware guy'.

Erm.  Long story short, we let a (in some certain, specific situations) somewhat unreliable product get to market (actually due to a vendor, not us -- but we still have to address the issue).  We have to qualify a replacement about a week and a half ago.

Once that's done, they may give me an entire week off.

...but this idea belongs in the appreciations thread.

PIE!
The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say.

Huuzzah!

Cheesecake is awesome.  Also, today is a nice day!

Well, Goodbye.

* Yuthirin points at Iddy.

He's awesome. Worship him! Throw pickles at him!

I don't need them. I have body armor and a kevlar.
This is not the greatest post in the world, no... this is just a tribute.

I had a great vacation; started a new vitamin regimen since I had a fever during most of it.

The new regimen I'm taking appears to be offsetting my depression.  I wonder what I was missing, since my research suggests that the old 'vitamin b alleviates depression' bit is a myth....

It looks like the 20 or so work hours missing from my check last week will be on this weeks check.
