I worked 14 hours today.
I am just now sitting down to "breakfast"- a hamancheesesammich and a glass of moo juice.

My back is threatening VERY LOUDLY to rip itself from my body and start a new life on a desert island. I can't feel the soles of my feet. My tinnitus is trying to deafen me. The Nashville Cat is wrapping herself around my ankles, trying to tell me how hungry she is (she forgot I stopped off three hours ago and fed her).

You know what? I LOVE IT! I don't think I've worked this long or hard in years. It's nice to know I can still survive it, even occasionally.

The best part is I get to do it again tomorrow! (Although I AM gonna sleep a little late...) :toast:

2. Computer repairs.
That's why my back hurts so bad- I spent all day glued to an office chair trying to put together a wireless networking system for a client who's setting up a home office. That Lanier wireless laser printer station was a bear to wire up to an old SBC 2Wire wireless router. I LOATHE 2Wire equipment- kiddie junk. Worthless. But there it was, and here I am.
