I am announcing the first ever Andrew Day. A day of fun, food, and adventure!!! I am scheduling it for this Wednesday, May 13th, 2009. Participation in Andrew day is purely optional. From the average person's point of view this will look like any normal Wednesday. I will be spending my morning basking in the glow of my computer monitors working on system issues and coming up with crazy ideas about those issues and plans to fix them that are even more far out and crazy. I will undoubtedly cause anguish, disbelief, and mayhem just like any normal day.
The differences... My day is starting it at 4am. I will be getting up, taking a shower, making coffee, and then heading to work by 5am. I will go to work and be play my part in all the fore-mentioned scenarios. It is when I leave work that Andrew Day will have meaning. I am leaving work early for an appointment 5+ years in the making. After this meeting of the minds and talents of several individuals things will never be the same again. This change in the norm is scary and exciting and has the potential to be good, bad, or both. We will all have to wait and see!!
I don't know exactly how the day will end. There are several possible outcomes. I will be recapping the day shortly after and it will be documented with photos and I am sure many many endless comments...
There isn't a plan for third party involvement in Andrew Day but you can send your RSPVs to Andrew at gottoon at gmail.com or post in the comments. Everyone has a place in the Andrew Day celebration... See you there!

Long weeks...even longer weekends.
Good morning everyone.
So my work weeks seem to be getting longer and longer. Work is good we are not completely slammed like we have been the last several months. But, we are still busy. We have new people in our department that are starting to take some of the pressure off.
Weekends don't seem to stop anymore. I seem to always be doing weekend projects all week long. Could be caused by the fact I don't spend much time on the weekends doing weekend projects. I do have lots of fun with friends on these non-working weekend days. After all, that is one of the points of having good friends.
I have spent a lot of time thinking the last few weeks. There have been many new things happening in my life right now. I am taking a short break from dealing with the more complex things because of my recent move to an apartment and issues with the MINI. So the move went fairly well this weekend. I had some great people come help me. I am still sore from all the lifting. I nearly have the whole house unpacked. I am leaving several things in there boxes for a while. Don't really 'need' them right now and I don't want to do any anything major until I see how things work out in the space I have. I also found a new private owned coffee shop right down the street from where I now live. They French press ALL their coffee. They have a robust Sumatran that is to die for. No sugar needed!!!
Well I should start working now... My 15 min break was over a long time ago. LOL
