not a whole lot new here. life has been busy as usual…hung out with Mare on friday/saturday and went to Anoka for a halloween party (kicking and screaming!). I went out to eat with my sis and her friends on Sunday, went to play kickball on Monday (the other team forfeited so we didn’t actually play…it was freezing so I wasn’t too upset), then I headed over to Adam’s place for MNF/his birthday party. Today was kinda stressful as usual. I don’t know what’s wrong with me lately but work has just been really hard…I think i’m just getting burnt out and the cold weather/seasonal depression is starting to set in. Whatever, i guess i just need to toughen up.

tonight mare and i went to church to help out with a Halloween party. We helped with the hay ride (horses pulling a trailer for those of you city folk who’ve never heard of such a thing) and it was actually a lot of fun. The group helping with the hay ride was pretty crazy…there was a girl I went to college with my freshmen year, two people who were “a little off” as i would say, and a guy missing most of his teeth who was hitting on Mare like crazy. I don’t think he realized that we were together and at one point he told Mare to go get her a cup of hot cider. She said “sure” (hoping to avoid riding the hay ride with him). He then looked over at me and said “I’ve got her wrapped around my little finger! just were I want her!” hahahaahaha, I turned away and busted out laughing. Later, he told her the exact same thing! It was hilarious to say the least.

Tomorrow will be another busy day. I’m headed over to our hardware supplier to go over the installation procedure and make sure everything is kosher. Then I’m headed over to do some stupid IT-type work for one of mare’s friends…not too excited about that one but it’s good to help out friends i guess…

Thursday morning i’m flying out to San Fran for a strategy session. Unfortunately my flight leaves at 7am…not cool. I’m coming home saturday night and will hopefully catch up on some sleep. Ugh i need some time away…completely disconnected…

on a more positive note, our office got setup with a CentOS/trixbox/asterisk system courtesy of a local Asterisk consultant (who really knows his stuff). I’m glad to be on an open system and the customization is limitless. The wiring was a pain and I’m sure the asterisk guy hates us at this point, but, whatever…

time for sleep…i don’t want to wake up tomorrow!
