Damn you, R. Alex Whitlock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why, oh why, am I damning him?

Well, last night he tells me his plight about being horribly overworked and asks me if I'd like to fill in for him. I think "sure, why not? I usually have tons of time during and after my work day and I can post some really interesting stuff even though I'll be out of town from Thursday afternoon until Monday afternoon, right in the middle of his mini-vacation."

So what happens? Alex has cursed me. I came to work this morning and have had the most hectic day I have had in at least six months. This post, 1 minute before I am to leave, is the *only* time I have had to take a break from anything. I haven't been able to be witty. I haven't been able to enrich the world. I haven't been able to do a damned thing other than program all day! Yes, I am in IT like Alex, although he works with hardware more and I work with software. Oh, and for different companies as well, although Alex used to work for the company I work for and technically in a roundabout way I got my job here because he got me another job somewhere else when that somewhere else bought part of the company I now work for...

So, damn you, Alex, for cursing me with hectic work.

Thank God for my vacation to Atlanta tomorrow.

And (seriously), thanks for letting me post what little I can. It is fun. :)
