AJ and Denisse were going to be meeting at the Pentagon City mall for dinner tonight, and they invited me to join them. I agreed. Since I normally leave work at 4 PM, I now get to stick around here until 7 PM when I am supposed to meet them. Still, I’m going to try…
My Friday afternoon snack! The people sitting around me are jealous!
One of the projects on which I am working is a conference room reservation system of inordinate (and unncessary) complexity. This project involves the integration of three different software packages: (1) An off-the-shelf conference room scheduling package; (2) Microsoft Exchange; and (3) an off-the-shelf tasking package. None of these packages have native interfaces to any…
I feel asleep well before 9 PM last night, and so I managed to get myself more than 9 hours of sleep on a “school” night, which is far better than usual for me (I typically average 7 hours). Of course, going to bed that early means missing a few things: I missed the Red…

My right knee still felt…

I haven’t been keeping up with my cardio workouts and I decided to correct that this afternoon. After work I headed to the gym and realized that I had fogotten my lock for the locker. So I headed back the office, changed into my gym clothes, left my stuff in my office, and headed back…
Just a bunch of miscellaneous stuff before I head off to the gym: I had it in my head this morning that today was the last day of summer and that tomorrow was the autumnal equinox (I think I’ve got the right terms this time, mabfan). But when I checked, I found out that the…
