Workin on a Saturday

by Slack, on January 5th, 2008

Happy Saturday peeps! I’m stuck at work today. Not as bad as it sounds. We are having our big sales meeting this weekend and being one of the two geeks on staff, I’m relegated to the A/V Club… If someone would have told me about the curse of the A/V Club when I joined it in grade school, I never would have done it! ;)

My official job for this event is to basically ensure that all of our out of town sales reps get the new software installed on their machines. So, my counterpart and I sit in this training room and the reps drop their laptops off and we install the software. Additional to that, we are also crisis runners in case of any electronical acts of god…

Today is the continuation of the training from yesterday, so my counterpart and I should have a relatively quiet morning as most of the installs were done yesterday. So that’s gonna be nice. I brought my book and will just hang out in back and enjoy. ;) At least that’s the plan.

2008 is Upon Us.

I know a lot of us out there are going to do the right thing and make that Get In Shape resolution. A great many of us will… Not all of us will exit this endeavour slim, trim and yummy. In fact, statistics say most of us wont. But, like the teeming millions out there, I will join the race and do my best to recapture my fit and trim self from yesteryear. I have my top secret plan of attack, and as of right now, the determination of a…. determined thingy.

I thought I’d share with you one of my favorite calorie counting websites. I highly recommend it if you are into the whole calorie counting thing. You know, the only diet that really works? … I say that like I’m not fat… Well, when I’m thin, I’ll tell you what, damnit! :: points and makes a face at you :: (yes. YOU!)

Good luck to one and all! See you on the fit and trim side!
