Today's events, including a bit about what I work on right now

I had a pretty interesting dinner last night: two chicken breasts lightly marinated in teriyaki sauce with several strips of bacon and bread. It wasn't a lot, but I didn't feel hungry at least. ^^;; And I'll probably have something similar tonight, only with tofu. ^^;; I need to buy groceries soon, but not too many...

In my (physical) mailbox today:

- A Dell catalog catalogue. Not too surprising, although it was addressed to someone else. And I should tell Semagic to use a British English dictionary, but I'm lazy

- A church newsletter (really one glossy sheet of paper), which had this interesting section (copied verbatim):

"Welcome

Visiting a church for the first time can be an intimidating experience. Because of that, we'd like to invite you to TEST DRIVE our church at www.EastLakeCC.com. You can view videos that show our services, children's classes, and just get a general feel for who we are. Then, come on out and visit us April 8th as we kick off our new message series. See you then!"

I think going on Easter Sunday to a church would be intimidating for most people. ^^;;;; And I've never heard of "test driving" a church before... In any case, it's not anywhere nearby (it's in Kirkland near I-405), so I don't think I'd consider going anyway...

Work was good today, although I was really busy most of the time answering emails and triaging issues (figuring out who to assign to and how important/severe the issue was, and whether it needed a bug or whether it was because someone wasn't doing something correctly), as well as poking around in a debugger doing various investigations of crashed programs and systems. Those (poking around in debuggers) are always fun, although sometimes I end up being in way over my head. :P

I left at 7:30 feeling like I'd gotten quite a lot of work done. And I felt good that my manager and my skip-level manager (my manager's manager), as well as some other managers/developers from other teams, and the people whom I responded to, recognized my efforts and said so.

Although I have to be at work at before 8 am tomorrow... *groans*

Eating lunch alone was kind of unusual (although the food was pretty delicious), but someone dropped by in the evening on their way out, and that was a welcome distraction from work. ^^;; I may even manage to get that person to go with me to the gym on Saturday to workout together, I hope. :P

And that's about it for what happened today.

Tomorrow I should be getting a call on whether my rental application's been approved. I hope it will be. ^_^

Oh no! Basket, we should really keep our relationship secret stop doing stuff with each other. No... wait... that didn't come out right. ^^;;;;

In Uni, sometimes I ate alone, sometimes with friends, sometimes ... well, I eat lunch at home when I don't have classes around lunch time. :p Ah... those days...

For starters, you should come to office dressed as a blue red blob with holes for eyes... ^^;;;; Then no one will believe that we actually know each other. :P
