I am so tired
Category: work

I am trying to wrap up this massive work project in the last few days so that i don't have to think about it during St. Patricks day weekend. I cannot wait for it to be freakin over. I have already worked 12-15 hours everyday this week. With 40 hours right now. Tomorrow hasn't even started yet. It better just go smooth and then I am going to take off.

I really hope in april we get a new position and I can finally have an assistant/partner in crime. I would love so much to have someone to work with directly so that I am not responsible for so much stuff alone. Plus its just more interesting to work with other people and have someone to talk to about the projects we would be working on together.

God I look strung out from programming.

Even though I don't like Beer or Guinness that does sound good think one might kill me...........

an Irish car bomb is a half pint of Guinness with a shot of Bailey's and Jameson dropped in it and downed. Delish!

that and having no support from everyone (family, coworkers, friends) who should be supporting you at times when you are desperately working on deadlines but are instead whining about their own troubles :/

@(e:Paul) I get the 12 Hour day is long.... Sometimes that is how long I'm out of the house But I can't imagine having to work that long let alone 15 argh.... At least though you are close.... Or maybe that makes it worse if people know you are close by?

Liberte vs chobani yogurt
Category: food

The liberate is 1000% tastier but check out the fat on that. 0% fat vs almost half the daily allowance of saturated fat. The chobani is also not very many calories in general. My puffed rice cereal is the same way. Its like 50 calories a bowl. I think I need to up the significance of my breakfast.

Butter makes everything better.

tinypliny - 03/13/12 20:15
Yogurt and cereal is your only breakfast? Really? don't you eat eggs??

Time for a new grill
Category: food

The grill had a run in with the wind storm last week that might have been life threating. I got it to start up again buy I think it might be time to just start over. I feel bad because it cooked so many good meals.

tinypliny - 03/13/12 20:15
Whoa - was it tipped during the storm?

When dishwashers go bad
Category: appliances

I spent the good part of two hours on Sunday night cleaning out the dishwasher parts. I took it apart down to the motor and cleaned out every tube and part. The thing just wasn't washing right anymore and the dishes were coming out disgusting.

It was totally worth it because afterwards they came out sparkly clean like when it was new. I also soaked the glasses that had residue buildup in vinegar overnight. I think everything is back to normal now.

Don't ask me why, but whenever you say you took something apart to the core or fixed some complicated screen or window or whatever, I feel so... inadequate and compelled to learn new skills.
