Another LJ meeting

[greatbear]

My 9/80 work weeks begin once again. This is a good thing. Unlike last year, I am not as lucky with upcoming camping dates falling on those Fridays off. Oh well, it's still a good thing.

Tonight was a pleasant night out for Jeff and I as we welcomed bigrock to the area and took him out to dinner to Chammps. He's in the area for job training. Let it be known that he gives great hugs and can pick you up like a sack of potatoes. I knew I was in the company of a true fellow geek when he wanted to finally meet all my computers. ;)

I find I can Facebook while at work but any app dealing with chats, IMs and other direct connecting is blocked. That's fine by me. I can still see what y'all are doing.

All in all, the day ended up being a lot better than how it started, when I got up out of my IKEA Klappe computer chair and the lock for the second swing-away arm broke, sending me falling backwards into the studio desk and putting me in a pissy mood at first. This is the second time this has happened, and I will have to defeat the swinging arm feature on the left side now by doing some machine work. The mechanism was poorly designed anyway, at least not able to withstand me hoisting myself out of the chair via the arms because my knee is giving me issues.

Back to the grind tomorrow!

Great to meet and hang out! You've got quite the collection of gadgets, and I think I knew what at least half of them do :)

Always a pleasure to have a friend that can go toe-to-toe when it comes to geekery. ;)
