It snowed yesterday...a beautiful thick, medium-sized flakey snow...all day. All told, I heard we got up to 15 inches of snow, but because it's barely freezing at best, a heck of a lot of it melted...but there was enough up to my knees when I got home.
I swear a lady at work spent the entire day walking around exclaiming to everyone how gross and terrible it is outside. Me...I love weather, I love things like snow and nature. Me, I of course tell her I think it's lovely out. She doesn't like that...I think she sometimes thinks I say those things just to annoy people...but it's really just my honesty speaking. Oh well, if people don't want to hear it and learn about me or share opinions, so be it...go bitch to everyone else about how shitty it is (and she proceeded to do that).
Today, I'm walking in a hall and a coworker asks me, "Hey Mike, what's with your tire?"
"Eh?"
"Your front tire is pretty much flat."
"Oh..I'll check it out, thanks!"
This guy usually always parks next to me way down at the end of the lot (I'm not one of those people who whines about having to walk an extra 50 yards from my car to the door...as if I'll fucking die or freeze or gravity will cease to exist before I get to the door (with my aforementioned love of nature and weather, this makes sense...), so I figure he knows what he's talking about.
Sure enough, it's pretty much flat. I think about changing it myself, but I'm not on my parent's AAA membership for nothing, and I never get a chance to exercise it, so I call up and have someone local change it for me. Tomorrow morning I'm heading in to get a replacement bought and put on.
Not a huge deal, mostly just a minor annoyance which happened to actually fit into my day. I had to stay late anyway to fix up someone's printer. I didn't get around to fix up someone's new ill-gotten printer in time, so they did it themselves (damn impatient VPs). Lo and behold they did it wrong...so wrong that it flooded my domain controller with event log entries...and the "private" printer he wanted for only his department just happened to be open to any curious party anyway. So I hopped on his machine after he left and fixed the offenses.
Anyway...my normal computer is down for a while as I'm too lazy to go get more distilled water for it. I'd do it tonight and go back to work to clean out my fish tanks if I didn't have a spare on my car right now.
Oh...and my life right now is NCAA Basketball...so, bare with me if I'm away or seem distracted. I also need more sleep...fuck, I need more hours in my day. I spend 8-9 hours a day working at work, and then I have all this stuff I want to learn and research afterwords, my life and apartment and room and fish tanks and car to pick up after, games I want to play, and people on here that I want to talk to...let alone my own neglected web page. Christ, and I need to work out and actually get a social life....wtf...I want double the hours in every day.

It snowed here the other day, and I was also of the minority opinion that it was really pretty out. Most of it melted by today, though. =/
Snow? What I wouldn't give for some snow...
