Day 2: I'm lovin'it
Another great day at home/office.
I can get a lot more done during the day then in the evening. However at around 11am I caught myself slacking off watching music videos on YouTube, including the new Madonna and JT and some old school. Other then that I’ve spent the whole day coding.
I need to figure out a good way of documenting my projects and keep track of changes. For now I’m using flat files and a note book on the corner of my desk. I’m running a database server at home, so ideally it would be something that would use a database for storage.
I decided that whenever I will feel to tired to do any serious work or just unproductive, I will spend that time looking for new tools and things that will improve my work flow. My time will be better spent doing low priority tasks then doing nothing at all. I hate doing nothing, it puts me in bad mood.
Looks like my Friday lunch plans will have to be moved to another day. One member of our lunch crew has a case of influenza.

So after being ’stood up’ for lunch, I decided to take a walk around the “Place”… What was supposed to be a 15 minute walk turned into a 35 minute walk on account of a HUGE barrier(hill, nay, mountain) of clay blocking my normal path toward the Meewasin trail.
As I was off-roading over the mountain to reach safer ground (I couldn’t avoid it because of the old irrigation ditch along side), I put my ipod in my pocket for concentration. But when I bent over in attempts to remove the 3 inches of stuck-on clay from my sneakers, my ipod fell out of my pocket into the mire!! 10 minutes to clean my shoes and ipod and smushing my feet in every remnant of snow slowed me down.
All told, I made it back okay, but really, the way I see it: it is all your guys’ fault
