I want one of these in my studio!

I'm not going to waste another entry whining about work but just a quick update in case anyone saw my Facebook update yesterday that I hated my life - - - life is good again, just like I knew it would be. I used to say that I really like the work I do and the people I work with, but it just feels like I can say that less and less. That has become more true over the past few months. I hope it's an aberration and things turn around. I don't think it's just me - I think a lot of my co-workers would say that and a lot of my fellow human beings would say that too. Very seriously, I'm happy to have a job I don't hate (all the time).

I must say I'm looking forward to President Obama's address to Congress next Tuesday night. Listening to that man speak always cheers me up and gives me hope. Even just Generic General Hope is good.

I've been IMing the programmers at work this morning and the system upgrade is going well so we're on schedule to begin testing at 1:00, after our take-out from PF Chang's of course. Everyone was very receptive to that idea so I'm happy to make them happy. I have 4 hours blocked out in my head for this work thing, but I'm confident it will take way less time. And Steve has already agreed to either go out to dinner or maybe we'll pick up something to bring home.

Off I go to craft for a while before heading out.
