I've said it before, but I love my job! Today I've had one guy comment that my suitcase must be full of impressive lap tops, seen an engineer sail by on a Segway scooter thing, watched another one juggle 2 balls and an omelet pan, and for lunch we have "Kona Coffee Crusted Beef Tenderloin: Seared coffee crusted filet mignon drizzled with a Kahlua coffee liqueur and vanilla bean sauce." Caffeinated meat! It's what the dreams of geeks are made of!
The only possible draw back to the whole situation here is the scary toilets, one of which finally attacked me this morning. It eventually happens to everyone, you're sitting there quietly minding your own business, and then Woosh! Out of nowhere comes this paint-stripping blast of slightly warm water. Very scary. One of the engineers told me that you can actually hit the wall across the room with one of these things. Eep. I will say I've come to appreciate the warm seat. It was rather off-putting at first, and the control panel was very intimidating, but up until today I've had no malfunctions and had come to like the thing. Now I'm tense again. The toilet thinks it's smarter than me.
Anyway, this afternoon I'm heading down to my parents for the holiday. It's a bit sad, my brother is going to be spending the holiday with his future in-laws (he finally got engaged! yay! We love this girl. I was seriously considering trading him in for her if he didn't decide to keep her) so I will only get to see him Thursday for lunch. Which kind of sucks. But this is what happens when you turn in to an adult and have relationships with actual people, and not just a cat and a playstation, and we all must come to terms with it. At least I'll have time to knit and read in relative peace, without fear of strange crazy housemate drama.
