So, haven’t been around in a while. This whole work thing is really starting to take it’s toll on me. I’m not about to list all the places I’ve been over the past couple months, but after a long flight, I’ve never been so happy to land in…….INDIANA!!
The benefit lately of all this travel is that my focus is taken off the fact that my favorite bathroom at work is closed. Apparently, someone had an “accident” and they called in a haz-mat team to clean up the mess. But now, the dudes in the space suites cleaning up the mess shut the bathroom down for 3 months. 3 months!! The problem is this bathroom was like, 25 steps from desk. I relied on this as my mid-morning and late-afternoon sanctuary. If you remember, Wednesday is b-b-q day and now I have to walk, like a mile away just to do my thing. I’ve already gotten lost 3 times!
I went to a Notre Dame football game this weekend in South Bend and it was an eye-opening experience. Nevermind that I just had a birthday and being around all those hung over college kids only made me feel older, I actually got sleepy towards the end of the game. I’m sitting there, arm to arm with my Dad and the half drunk-half hung over kid next to me, and I started to doze off…..at a Notre Dame football game! I watched “Rudy” 8 times in preparation for this moment and I’m sleeping in the stands.
I visited Connecticut a couple weeks ago and really enjoyed it. Before my trip, I received my new Blackberry in the mail and spent half the trip messing with the settings. By Sunday afternoon, I realized just how awesome this little device is. And when I say awesome, what I mean is down right addicting. Let me be clearer, I’m completely hamstrung by this thing, like Linus and his blanket! I now realize what it’s like to have a crack addiction. This thing is my crack. The upside is that it has a navigation function so now, I don’t get lost when walking to the bathroom at work! I guess this is growing up.
