Another day

Not much excitement today....
Still getting up early (455) to work out. First time in a couple months lifting weights so a bit sore all around. A "good" sore though! Ha - like there is ever such a thing.
shower/lunch making/off to work at 556

Got to work with no incidents...
finished up a project that's been perplexing (what a great word!) me for a while...
then, well, not much. I hate looking for work to do but I find myself doing that more-and-more lately. Not sure what kind of signal that is. Asst Dir is on vac. til end of week so it's up to me.
She'll get slammed when she gets back so it will still be up to me.
Was told I need to be more 'visible' with my colleagues during my last review. I'm thinking about trying to send fewer emails and getting up and walking over to cubicles instead. So far... not so good. Some habits are hard to break.

On the way home late (1542)
A little excitement then... disappointment. Betsy's been looking for a computer armoire to go in the dining room, found one on craigslist, found the same listing on ebay and asked me to snipe it for her (this submits a bid with 20 seconds to go on an auction). I put in 200 and the auction didn't end until 10:20. Kept refreshing the page on ebay and with 12 seconds to go we were outbid by 2.50. Bummer. I tried to encourage by saying that we found this one so I'm sure we'll find another. Have to admit though this one would have worked nicely. After that I hit the rack.
