May. 20th, 2004 09:06 pmFirst, I want to say happy birthday to
sillyfox and
ed_dirt
Next, I'd like to mention that my parents took us out for dinner at Aladdin's, which was nice, and had planned for a movie, but we were all kinda beat, so we just went lawnmower shopping and bought some ice cream to bring home. (Dad has apparently decided that he's sick of paying for gas for the lawnmower, so he wants a battery cell powered mower. They exist, but are hard to find. There is one that is only availible direct from the manufacturer that I think he is leaning towards, but we're trying to find any from other brands in Columbus before he buys one with only being able to see literature and a DVD.)
APT brought my entire office gourmet cookies to celebrate my first full week at Sterling. I don't mean they brought a basket or a small box. They had a messenger deliver a box like you usually get a few hundred donuts in for a buisness function, filled to the brim with a very wide assortment of Cheryl & Co. gourmet cookies. Needless to say, all 10 people in my office were very, very, very happy. And I ended up giving a lot of the other contractors in there cards for my APT handler, because they apparently beat the hell out of RHI or TekSys for contact and such. (They were floored that I got taken out to lunch the other day, too. I sense that I managed to find a very, very, very good company to work be a contractor for.)
Finally, I should mention that I somehow forgot that today was Thursday. I think I spent 3/4 of today thinking it was Wednesday. That's not so good.
