I don't want to be here today, and I'm not actually sure why.

I've had a fairly decent day in terms of work. Solved problems, got out to walk for awhile going to places, made people happy. Had a decent lunch talking to people, even if Lowry's finally ruined one of the Chinese dishes I really liked.

But I don't want to be here. I'm not even sure what I'd be doing, honestly, but I don't want to be at work.

Ever have days like that?

In other good news, I sold some of the still working but not needed or compatible parts from my old computer (SDRAM, LAN card, etx) to people in the office today. I bring the parts in on payday and they give me money. Isn't it neat how that works?

From USA Today's entertainment section (My boss showed it to me. I'm not wasting money on that rag!)

"...In a sign of the growing importance of DVD sales to Hollywood, 20th Century Fox is considering a plan to resume production of Family Guy, a sometimes crude animated comedy that the Fox network took off the air more than 18 months ago. As many as 35 new episodes could return in January 2005, marking the first time that a canceled series has been revived based on strong DVD demand and ratings in syndication..."

Best news I've heard all day.

You are a bronze dragon! You are the biggest of
the males, and generally you are the only one
who gets to mate with the queen. You are an
excellent leader. Your human partner is likely
to be a Wingleader or even Weyrleader, the
person in charge of the entire Weyr, and you
are the mate of the senior queen. You are
respected by the lower colors, and if you are
the Weyrleader's dragon you are always obeyed,
unless the queen contradicts you. Since queens
are relatively uncommon, you are widely
considered by humans the best dragon to be
paired with.


What color of Pernese dragon are you?

Had a very /bad/ scare after walking, but it came right.

In other good news, my average lap time went from 7.5 minutes to 6, over the past 2 weeks. That makes me really happy. My bad leg still bothers me, but I'm improving. And I can feel more energy, and except for the pain, more stamina as I go. If my leg wasn't missing chunks of knee, I think I'd be able to do even more excercise without stopping. As it is, I'm using the pain as a 'stopping point', as it comes up around 30-45 minutes.
