i *heart* the internet and cable TV

okay... so to economize and cut back a little bit, i decided i could give up my 170 channel cable TV and my internet at my apartment... i was doing pretty good with it till this weekend... ugh... the longest weekend ever... actually, even though my cable was "turned off" i still had internet access until i turned in my digital box and modem on saturday... this next month is going to be long... thank goodness i have a vacation in the middle... and stuff planned for the other weekends... i didn't realize how addicting the internet had become... i wasn't feeling very well this morning (kind of a sore throat... not too bad, but a little irritating anyway) and decided that i needed to come to work so i could check my email and read the online news and peruse craigslist... i'm horrible... i know...

also at work today, we got a few new ppl... they've worked at my company for 25+ years, and on friday was told that they funding for the project they were working on had ran out... and to pack up their desks and report to the office where i work on monday morning... that's kinda sad... you can tell they don't want to be here... the type of work we do is totally different from anything they've ever done... i'm sure i'd be confused and angry too if the job i'd had for many many years was suddenly tossed aside with little to no explanation... *sigh*... but one of them has a daughter who is in NFO training at Pensacola... she's learning the same things chris did, except for the navy... pretty cool...

now that i'm through surfing the internet, i'm ready to go home... *sigh* only 3 more hours...
