Urgh

I'm writing this from a very tiny last-century computer (circa 1999). It's a bit pathetic, but it'll do the job …. once the job starts. I'm waiting to get some help with a project … anyhoo. I'm not feeling my best today. I actually went home sick from work yesterday. I should probably do the same thing again today, but I won't, because I need my precious vacation days. Indeed, I would really like to make up the half-day I lost yesterday, but I fear I will not have the stamina today to work an extra hour. More's the pity. I guess there's always unpaid leave.

I slept LOTS yesterday. And I watched some Tivo. I had a bunch of episodes of the Barefoot Contessa backed up on my Tivo. I don't really like the Barefoot Contessa herself. She says “fabulous” a bit too often and reminds me in some ways of Martha Stewart, although I can't imagine Martha sans footwear. Anyhoo, despite not really lurving the BC herself, I enjoy her cooking. She made some really interesting stuff yesterday … chicken with peanut satay sauce and spanikopeda (which I could easily make myself) and a strawberry topiary (easy also). Very cool.

I've also got a backlog of projects to work on. I have yet to break out my new silk-screening system for anything more than a quick perusal and Matt got a dremel for Christmas as well, which has its own website and a myriad of projects. Maybe I can work on some of those tonight.
