Yet Another Recap Post

Ok. I've been slacking in the posting department lately, but honestly its because I've been real busy at work lately! I'm either going to have to start coming in late, coming in early, or *gasp*, start blogging from home! Here's the recap...

Thursday found me in meetings I really had no business being in... All day long... The meetings were for new software that I really pushed hard for at my old company. Its a different vendor, but a really cool product none-the-less. Why am I in the meetings? Not sure yet, but I'm guessing as a technical advisor of sorts.

Friday found me back at work and trying to catch up. Printer setup after printer setup... Tons of inventory and requests for inventory. Nothing exciting at all!

This weekend was a lazy one. FMD started the weekend off on the right foot by going to Sun Prairie's annual Groundhog Fest (http://www.groundhogcentral.com/). Jimmy the Groundhog arrived in style (a little late buy in style) on a ladder truck from the fire department. He was dressed-to-the-nines in a tux and top hat. He eventually thought they were a bit much, even for a holiday devoted to him, and he wiggled his way out of the outfit before giving us the good news that spring is coming early this year!

After that, FMD went to work and I headed out to pick up my venison from the meat plant. Hmmm. Jimmy was full of shit... Two inches of snow slowed my travels, but I made it there and back unscathed. Saturday night was a night for chillin' at the house and watching a movie in bed.

Sunday found FMD and I with the day off together since her preceptor at work changed her work schedule and forgot to include her on the plans... Thats fine by me. We celebrated by going to the new National Treasure movie and had Cherry Pepsi and Popcorn with a side of Junior Mints for breakfast! After the movie, we headed home and cooked a real breakfast in the early afternoon and napped delightfully afterwards. Pre-kickoff, we decided homemade pizza was going to be dinner so we scrambled off to the store and got all the fixings for a pepperoni, canadian bacon, cheese, mushroom, broccoli pizza. Weird I know but hey, you didn't have to eat it. After it was cooked, we also made an apple and brown sugar pizza and it was delightful! Eating ensued and the Giants won! My three most disliked QBs in the NFL are Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, and Eli Manning. Since I didn't really care for either team, I decided to root for my least disliked quarterback of the three... It was a great game!

And yes, now we're at Monday. I showed up today to have my co-worker greet me and ask why I was here... I was puzzled by this. She showed me a slip that noted I had quit and HR wanted my account disabled! After a few unruly words, my supervisor showed up and said it was a mix up and my job was in no jeopardy. Crisis averted. Now, my day has consisted of taking care of the phone bills for the Telecom department. Why the hell am I doing this while they sit over there and eat too much junk food and play FreeCell? I have no f'ing clue... I'm sorta wishing that I wasn't here today, just like HR said I shouldn't be... Such is life. Tomorrow is another day.
