Flying solo at work

I pulled a late one on Sunday watching the Wimbeldon finals. Too bad one of them had to lose. Today is the 2nd day I'm flying solo at work. The other dude quit but I've been well trained as he did take a few stints of long leave before he left for good.

These days I've been reduced to near boredom at home. Apart from the usual chores, I've resorted to telly, Facebook's Bowling Buddies, the ocassional round of Yahoo! pool and more telly. Kai has pretty much dissappeared under the radar. The busy busy fella.

I mentioned the chink effect at the office. Today, it was a chink miracle. In short, a near perfect Chinese-English translation was produced with little trouble and strife. Ok, it wasn't without the usual hiccups but the results were outstanding. I wonder if it was help from another planet. Credit is due if it isn't. Doug has to bow down a little, just a little in this case. BTW, I have to mention the florescent lights above and inbetween our desks have been turned off due to glare which caused headaches. I'm certain lights were invented not to cause headaches but this is some of the stuff I have to put up with.

Quote of the day : I have six locks on my door all in a row. When I go out, I only lock every other one. I figure no matter how long somebody stands there picking the locks, they are always locking three.
