The Longest Weekend
I almost feel guilty saying that I'm now enjoying the last day of a four-day weekend. Almost. I haven't had too many "fun" plans, though, so I've at least tried to be productive.
On Saturday night, I drove up to Jack's place in Newmarket to watch the game. I had been there the week before with Hufton, Maren, and Brendan, but Jacko was a little sick and had to be at work at 6 AM the next morning, so I figured it was the least I could do to make the
trip. Plus, I no longer have the "hey, there are five of us in Medford and just you in New Hampshire" excuse to make him drive down here. We had a nice man-date, as I fed him tortilla chips and hummus, he cooked me some sausage and pepper quesadillas, then we both cursed at the television while the Patriots lost their first playoff game since last century. After that, I went home and watched Saturday Night Live recorded from that night with Scarlett Johannson and Death Cab for Cutie. It wasn't that funny, but Scarlett Johansson remains very, very hot.
Tomorrow is my first day of normal work since July. I define normal work as being "work that begins before 12:00 PM and often lasts longer than 6 hours at a time. I have mixed feelings about this, but I think it should be good to get back to a regular schedule where I will be able to actually see other people during the week rather than go to work just as everybody else is getting out. The move from jeans to business casual could be rough. Jonathan Bryce Casual, while I thank you for creating a business dress code between business and casual, I only wish it could have involved jeans instead of slacks. Wherever you are J.B. Casual, I know you'll be sipping wine from a plastic cup.
Pig Blaster is a fun game, but make sure you have the volume turned down or headphones plugged in before you click here. If you find flatulence, belching, or pigs wearing aviator goggles to be offensive, then I suggest you skip this one.
