I realize I've been posting a lot about workouts. A lot of the reason is that my day goes like this: work, work out, come home. I work out hard enough to get my mind off work (which is no accident) so that's what I'm thinking about by the time I hit the computer. Yesterday I just worked 12 hours instead, and until the moment I fell asleep my head was full of things I'd like to do for the group, and things I don't understand about the legacy code I've been reading (and have these people ever heard of comments, yo?) and the direction of the project I'm on.
A post by a friend reminded me to be glad I have my coworkers though. I like several of them so much! There's one that I basically have a secret IM language with. He says:
*$? _|^
and I know what it means and laugh and say "yes!" (It means: are you interested in going to Starbucks? I'm perking up and watching for your answer vigilantly, like a meerkat on guard duty! Starbucks is $* and _|^ is the best emoticon we could create for a meerkat.)
