    WOW! My place of employment just let everybody take the rest of the day off because our network went down and most likely won't be back up until after 5:00 PM. It's a great day up here in Jonesboro, AR with a temperature of about 70 degrees so I think I'll clean up the house a little and then go fishing. YEAH!!!


    Anybody else this lucky on a Friday afternon?

    It's Good Friday, a lot of people are off. It's beautiful in H-town also.

    Everyone was out at 3:00 pm.

    Our company actually closes its offices at 3:00 pm every Friday from Memorial Day to Labor Day. "Summer Hours" are really nice.

    I was outdoors all day poolside hanging out with all the ladies. Such a nice day. Beer, sun, pool, and WINGS AND MORE to top it all off. AND an Astro win. Here's to a Rockets win to be the big finish!!!

    I got to spend the day cleaning the house... mowing, edging and weedeating the front and back yards, and cramming for a test.

    fun

    I was stuck at work until 6pm, my normal quitting time.

    Ugh.

    I had to work until 8 and will have to work today, starting in about 45 minutes to whenever. I REFUSE to work tomorrow, but that only means probably working late Monday and Tuesday!

    When you are working to get government contracts, you get screwed a lot in getting "days off", "holidays", "vacation" days, etc.

    I was at work from 8-4, but my company was having its Employee Appreciation Day from 12-4 so I wouldn't really call that part of it work. Afterwards, I went down to Guitar Center and (due to my extraordinary skills, no doubt :rolleyes:) allowed a salesperson to pull down all the expensive basses so I could try them out. Guess how many I bought?

    Then I went home and watched the Rockets. Now I've lost my voice. :(

    Played 18 at Bear Creek. Had lunch with roomie and RM95's Girl. Did some work. Watched the Astros beat the Brewers. Watched the Masters. Watched the Rockets clinch a playoff birth.

    If I hadn't have come down with some flu crap, yesterday would have been one of the best days in a long time! :D
