Day 276 work work work.

Look familiar? Well 1) my favorite mug made it with my from Seattle to Chicago. And 2) I'm back in the thick of things working like a crazy person. Deadlines like to come at you all at once, huh? It's certainly a conspiracy. Not that I don't mind a few days of nothingness. It's when those days are sandwiched between two weeks of absolute insanity that I kind of wish it all could have been planned better. So anyway, this has been my morning (and afternoon) view for the past few days. I don't quite see an end in sight just yet. I'll keep you all posted.

Day 235 gets to work

I had to pick up a day job here in Chicago so that I can continue to do fun adult things like pay rent, eat food, have internet, etc... Yay responsibility! It's actually not so bad though. The people are nice, the work is easy and the commute involves me walking 2 minutes across the street. Awesomesauce. This is my part of my view during my work shifts. It seems someone has an affinity for blue pens here. I'm gonna throw in a black one tomorrow to see if anyone notices. Gotta keep myself entertained somehow!

Day 158 is summer lovin

I'll be working from home for the next few weeks. I know that seems like a walk in the park, but it's actually not quite as fantastic as you would think. I mean, don't get me wrong - it's fantastic, but it's not a whole day of vacationing, if you know what I mean. I still get up early, set a daily work schedule for myself and try to remember to schedule some time for things like exercise and stepping away from my computer for a few minutes. I got a ton of stuff done tonight, and decided a beer with dinner was well deserved. The sis and I are loving this summer ale. It's all kinds of yummy, and made this work from home day so much sweeter.
