It's amazing how much my motivation factor goes up here at work when I have to get X-amount of work done before I leave for Connecticut. What sucks is I had planned to take tomorrow off a couple of months ago. But this bastard project came in and it has to be done and live by Wedneday. Yes, the 15th. WTF???!!!?? I've been cranking this shit out all day, and I'm rocking like Shout at the Devil.

Now, I'm waiting to hear back from the other factions that are involved in this unholy union. All I want is to be able to leave by noon tomorrow. (actually, all I want is to be able to take my last vacation day of 2002 tomorrow) But, on the good side, it shows I'm one of those team player drone bastards. Looks good at review time.

My itinerary is to drive to Binghamton, meet a friend, and then the 2 of us are going to drive to Hartford to hang out with with 2 more friends to get our drink on, our party on, our debauchery on, etc, all weekend. I have a bad feeling that Sunday is going to be a looooooong painful ride back.
