In semi-hockey related news, Chris Terry (Hurricanes prospect) just bought a new A5 from us. I thought he was quite young to be looking at a $45,000 car, but now it makes sense.

I live in a nice apartment with two fine young women, and have an awesome family.

Also, once I walk out of here at 9pm tonight, I get to sleep in tomorrow (work at 1pm) and have Wednesday off. And finally, I've reached top diamond status in Starcraft 2 (my only real hobby) and have gotten to the point where I've getting matched up against people who play the game full time for a living, and I win. I play an average of 3-4 games a night (Pros average 20-40 a day)

So yeah, can't complain.
Can I be your shadow for like 48 hours? Either that, or tell me the winning numbers to powerball. Both would give me the same amount of joy.

Agreed. I've gotta partake soon, haven't had any in a bit.

On the other hand: the sun not being out anymore when our alarms go off? Sucks.

My boss is out of town for the week on vacation. Only other person in the office is my annoying co-worker who liked to have conversations with me when I'm buried.

If yesterday was any indication, this will be a long week.

My boss's last day with the company is Friday. My last day before manditory leave is Friday -- can't have any work contact for a minimum of two weeks. The chances of her handing over some of the things she's been doing to me before she leaves? Slim.

Yeesh. That's ugly.

Mandatory leave eh? That's interesting. That a normal thing, or something related to everything you're dealing with over there?

Normal. It's two weeks of vacation where the company states one can not have any contact with the company. No remoting in, no calls, no cell phone/BB/mobile device contact.

I was originally taking mine in March/April but some other happenings had me reschedule.

Wow, that's really nice. Every time I take a vacation I inevitably log into something, unless I'm off in the woods sans technology. (Or in Canada paying stupid rates for international data...) In years past my boss has threatened to change my VPN and email passwords to prevent me from doing it. :p

Apparently Cellino and Barnes has a new phone number in their ads! What about the old jingle? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I guess they were losing business to William Mattar and his repeated digit phone number.

Yea, they've been pushing that ad and phone number for a couple weeks now. I couldn't help but laugh and shake my head when I saw it.

Or maybe more people were "hurt in a car?"

This news was so important that our illustrious paper of record in town wrote a 1400 word story about it.

Zombie banks, where zombies have been putting it away for a rainy day?

True enough. Granted, I'm looking at governmental job postings right now. Those are some sweet pay grades. Damn!
