I swear

I solemnly swear that this is the last weekend that I am working through.

Next weekend I will ignore everything work related.

Actually, it's next Wednesday onward, beginning with the New Year holiday and follows by the two days annual leaves I have applied for.

Then the weekend.

Five days to do whatever I want, like sleep, read, be potato, grow mushroom, grow spider web, et cetera.

Anything but work.

While I may not be in the office these past weekends, I remotely logged in to check on my simulations, post-processed completed cases, made changes and set another case running every few hours.

Basically, working.

My workstation is running 24/7, and I am babysitting it seven days a week without pause. It's solving the 24th case at this moment, which I will check later tonight.

And then keep trying until I find the best possible solution.

But enough.

This ends by the time I finish work next Tuesday. If I don't have a solution by then, too bad, so be it.

Next Wednesday onward until my break is over, project can burn to a crisp and I wouldn't care less.

This I swear, and I will do my darnedest sticking to it.

天马行空：平安夜妄想曲

平安夜，失身夜。

都忘了是听谁这样讲过。

不过这样色色不正经的东西，最有可能就是他了。

失身夜哦，太可怕了！

都是宅在家里比较安全。

当然是在家里失身比较安全的嘛…

不是吗？

因为情人老婆仔也在家啊，呵呵！

*坏坏* =P

爱的代价

整个十一月没有洗车，闲懒月当然不做洗车这样不闲懒的事咯。

十二月还没有来得及洗车就出差去了。

住的公寓旁有大型的填海建筑工程，车停在公寓停车位十天没动过，集了一身尘埃。

这周末是回来后第一个周末，虽然病了，但实在无法忍受车的脏，所以今早洗车去。

里里外外冲洗、清理、抹干用了一小时四十分钟。

踮脚、弯腰、全蹲、半蹲，和不停在抹的手，我是准备好腰酸背痛了的啦。

我认老，午餐后睡到四点才起身。

虽然累，但看着干净发亮的车心情好好的。

值得啦。

老天爷，你不要很「衰款」我一驾车出去就下雨哦…

真的我会比中指骂粗话的咯！

Dragon and phoenix, part deux

After I got my dragon (cloud serpent, whatever!) mount in World of Warcraft in September, the grind continued for the phoenix mount.

And finally, on my 64th attempt, it dropped. ^_^

finally!

Woohoo! Mission accomplished.

It's called Al'ar in the game, the item to summon the mount is called Ashes of Al'ar.

But whatever, to me it's a pretty phoenix mount.

Guess I will stick with levelling up my many characters until the next grindy item struck my fancy.

Surprised, or not

Went to departmental annual dinner yesterday night.

Surprised (and annoyed) that I forgot to bring along the gift for the gift exchange. So much for going through all the trouble to get one.

Surprised to find the relatively small number of people. Guess I still don't have a feel of the department size.

Not surprised by my lack of sense regarding the department headcount.

Surprised by the venue chosen for the annual dinner. It's just not suitable in my opinion.

Not surprised by the quality of food. No great anticipation anyway.

Not surprised by my unease and discomfort. It's a social event after all, too many people, too few known well enough.

Surprised that this department usually do annual lunch instead of dinner. It's always dinner in the previous department.

Not surprised I was bored and wishing to be home soon after I was done eating.

Not surprised I didn't get any lucky draw prize.

And not surprised that I am sick today. Haven't been feeling well ever since returning from business trip. The travel stress and work stress finally caught up.

Sucked in

So I got back yesterday night.

My luggage didn't.

Never happened to me before, until I travelled with a colleague who told me her delayed luggage experience.

Darn jinxed.

Oh well, at least it's on my return trip instead of outbound.

Gotta think positive.


Anyway, thought I am finally back to my 06:50 to 16:20 hours routine.

And no, we don't count those hours where I work after I got home since it's not conducive to my slacker extraordinaire reputation.

My working hours are from 06:50 to 16:20, since you know, I am allergic to traffic congestion and all those selfish idiotic drivers who emerged at those rush hours.

Not conducive to my mental and emotional well being, them traffic and idiotic road users.

But life is cruel, the aftermath of the business trip doesn't let me off.

Not only had to rush a simulation in between all those (what I feel) unnecessary meetings, had to get all worked up by the traffic and those darn selfish road users since I got delayed past my 16:30 window, I got dragged into a late evening meeting when I got home.

First evening home where I could sit down with the family to have dinner, ended up in meeting while they ate without me.

*Sigh...*

Really, where the fish and duck is your work/life balance people?

Darn workaholics, just let me go, let me go~

请勿打扰

终于，熬到了星期五。

原本以为昨天已是轻松的一天，但一早就被炸了一颗原子弹，唉～

所以昨天和今天又是忙、盲、茫。

算了，工作就是这样，埋怨也无济于事。

和同事们晚餐后还精力充沛的他们要去逛街购物，已经开始头痛的我则回酒店休息。

年轻就是本钱啊！

我认老，我累了就会开始头疼的。

奇怪的是那一整个白天喝了好几杯咖啡还是趴在桌上喊累的同事，吃饱晚餐后就生龙活虎了。

优先顺序排对了，真是厉害的人，值得学习。

她每天记忆都会刷清也很奇妙，和令人无语…

一懵还有一懵高，我需要继续努力。

很冷漠的告知同事明天不要吵我，我要睡到太阳晒屁股。

然后宅在房里生蘑菇。

想想都开心。

但我应该要买本小说先，因为带来的几天前看完了。

我在想应该要放怎样的告示牌在门上呢？

“内有恶犬”

“蘑菇培植中”

“谨慎：室内宅男曝晒裸臀”

希望明天真的可以好好的休息充电下啦。

太多太多天没有抱抱了，电池干枯。

但我心知肚明我一定会做工的，太多模拟要做了…

还是同样一句：出差就是累。
