23-VIII-2006 or Please think for me, I can't bear to. | Tragic Comedy

Work is going to kill me! I've been out in the sun too long. I need a quick break. How do I spend it? You're looking at it! :)

Well, I was out squatting for a while, counting insects on about 1000 tomato seedlings that are 2-4 inches tall. The back is screaming at me right now! Ow! Then, I had to pipet a product (we hate to say pesticide...like using a different word changes anything) onto plants 2.6 mL at a time. 400 plants. One by one. Repeat repeat repeat! I need a vacation. Oh, wait! I got one coming! Yay!!

The title is from a song I've had on my mind..if you can call it a song. "Wet My Bed" by Stone Temple Pilots. It's not the song of the day, though. Just on my mind.

I'm on the countdown. 14 days. I hate getting older. Yuck. Glad I'll be out of the country when it hits. I only have to worry about my wife reminding me. Until I get back... :(

It's starting to look a bit cloudy. If it rains, I won't be able to finish up my ladling. (Don't ask!) I should get going...

In a bit! :P

The song of the day will be "Black" by Pearl Jam. Just because.

I know someday you'll have a beautiful life
I know you'll be a star
In somebody else's sky
Why..why..why can't it be..can't it be mine?

If that doesn't touch your heart, you don't have one.

12-I-2009 or 1337?

I done got my computer hacked this weekend, which makes me angry. I've been running around today (at work) changing up passwords...which means I'll probably forget most of them, and be using the change password button on most of the places I hang out at to change them AGAIN. Go »

17-I-2007 or Henry Rollins ain't got nothing on me!

So, the results are in, and I'm still walking the streets, so that's good...maybe. I really should have seen this coming, but I did exceptional on the test...sort of. Go »

3-VIII-2007 or Kickball Follies

I think there might be a few pictures of me from the after-kickball party. If so, I'll give a handy link (since I don't know how to post them here...), in case anyone wants to see what drunk people who play kickball look like! Go »

11-VIII-2006 or Scutellum with Sublateral Grooves

Just a random part of an identification key for parasitic wasps I'm struggling with at work today. Random titles are hard to come up with some days. :( Well, who loves working overtime? Go »

22-VIII-2006 or PC Load Letter?! What the #@$% does that mean?!

I caught the tail end of Office Space the other night. Always improves my mood, somehow. I almost wish I worked in an office, so the jokes would be funnier. Go »
