Random Thoughts
Don’t wear a tie to work for the heck of it. Everyone will think you’re going on an interview and they’ll ask you about it.
Having a cubicle next to a skylight during a rainstorm is awesome. The raindrops make an amazingly soothing sound.

Friday Night
Erin and I went out to dinner with some friends. We had planned to see a movie as well, but timing didn’t quite work out so we just wandered around the streets of Glendale.
In our wanderings we happened upon a place called Bearded Papa’s at the Americana on Brand and they were serving cream [...]
Too Early
I realize very few people will ever encounter a problem such as this but I have to share it none the less. So, this morning I arrived at work too early. Yes, you heard me correctly. I was the first one to arrive at the administrative offices this morning and I don't have a key, so [...]
