why didn't anyone tell me..
I had pen markings on my face and the few internal clients that visited my office this afternoon pretended that nothing was wrong. Did they really think that those pen markings would magically disappear on it's own? Why doesn't anyone say anything?
Lucky for me I made a trip to the bathroom...
Next time someone has a booger hanging out of their nose, I'm not saying shit.

Lunch in South Park
Seriously, there are way too many people working near and around South Park. It's like the invasion of 20-something web 2.0 conference members descending on the few worthy, and inexpensive lunch places in the area.
I remember the good ol' days right after the dotcom bust and all those startup companies lacking in real services to sell to the populous ran out of funding and folded. There were no lines in front of Mexico au Park stretching out into the sidewalk. You didn't have to wait 15 min for a table at the Butler and the Chef. Brickhouse actually didn't run out of soy milk. Now, all the kids have returned with new ideas and new funding from well-established companies like Google, Yahoo, and Microsoft.
In any case, I was patient today (cause it's my b-day and old age slows you down) and amused myself with guessing if the 15 or so guys standing in line with me were programmers, analysts, project managers or dba's.

when does "digg" become part of my job?
About once a month, my company has a mini meeting where the head honchos give us all an update on what's in the pipeline and how we are meeting budget compared to last month.
As always, online is growing and print is holding steady. So, what can we do to bring more traffic to our site and boost revenue? Why not get everyone in the company to create a Digg profile and start "digging"? Honestly, I don't have time to join yet another social networking site let alone read articles and give it a "Digg" or not. I want to get my work done rather than surf the web clicking on articles all day
Social networking sites are time vacuums. I should know, I'm on several social networking sites (facebook, myspace, friendster, flickr, linkedin, orkut, sportsvite, and yelp to name a few). One too many, I think. It's hard enough to keep track of what's going on with my friends and what's worthwhile to read that I find I spent most of my day following someone else's day and reading up on things that aren't currently useful to me now. Next thing I know, the day's over and I forgot to eat and it's time to go home. Bah! Someone else can digg. I don't have time.

I'm so blacklisted
What is going on?? Is my company trying to oust me or persuade me to get the hell out?
Two or so weeks ago, I gave up my crackberry to a new hire and downgraded myself to an older one. Then I get a call from Telecom about my phone service plan. Apparently, I texted way too much last month so they changed my service and knocked me off the Enterprise plan. In so doing, I wasn't getting my work email, my personal email nor was able to surf the web. They have since corrected that issue. And then today, I'm banished from helping myself to the vitamin water in the frig on the fifth floor. I'll surely dehydrate in this vacuum of an office within an office. What am I going to hydrate myself with now? Bacteria filled tap water?
I thought my company was this one big happy family where sharing resources goes a long way but I guess not.

some prepubescent boy
thought it would be fun to grab my ass while I boarded my bus home. I was shocked but not as appalled as I could have been. The kid must have been more disappointed to find out that the ass he chose to grab wasn't worth the grab in the first place.
Asian = no ass
Hope he learned that lesson and leave me and my flat ass alone.
