Working It

Long, rewarding day at work. Not much else is going on in my life right now.

One For The Nerds

– (void)myDay {

if ([self isAwake])
{
[self goToWork:addressOffice];
[self workAllDay:writingSoftware];
[self goHome:addressHome];
[self sleep];
}
}

This is 1.0ß of my current life algorithm. When I get some time I’ll add eating/drinking methods which I’ve not had time to write.

Note to self: the “code” tag looks horrible using the current CSS for this website and the “blockquote” tag ignores my indentation.

Did I mention this section was for the nerds?

Hey! I Read Listened To A Book!
Alternate section title: “The Truman Show”
About a month a go I put out a request for audiobook suggestions. Eric from GardenFork TV sent me a tweet recommending Truman. Not being a history buff I figured that I could learn about Harry S. Truman by listening to this book — and I was right.

Truman lived a fascinating life during tumultuous times. How Truman came to become President along with the actions he was forced to perform during his tenure as President kept me attentive while driving around this past weekend. Even if you know about Truman you might find listening to this book worthwhile — hell, go nuts and actually read the book if that’s how you get your kicks.

I go to Taco Mac primarily for two things — beer, to look at pretty women. Nachos, salsa, and queso are merely a nice bonus in my life.

Uh oh, it’s Wednesday and this is the last photo in the queue

What Should I Eat For Top Chef Masters Night?
Let’s assume that I’ll get home by 7:30pm tonight for the 10:00pm showing of Top Chef Masters. What should I eat tonight? Anyone? ITP-Reader Betsy? Anyone?

Okay, Back To Work
See you tomorrow (though I’ll be here checking for comments all day). Have a wonderful Wednesday, friends.
