gonna make you sweat

How many times can an IT person say they sweated at their job? Today's an open house, which means we have to create a sterile work environment, and make the place look like a showroom instead of a place of business. I wonder if anyone is really fooled by that. Do they think that ever day goes by with no clutter on desks, no papers scattered about? Would they think that no actual work gets done at the company, because there is nothing on the desks?

Still, the gesture I'm sure is appreciated. It's like having guests over to your home. No one wants to give the appearance of living in a pigsty, and some of us actually like the idea of cleaning. So, I cleaned, I tidied, I moved a lot of heavy boxes and a printer the size of Sisyphus's boulder. Fortunately for me, the printer stayed in place and didn't roll after me down the hallway. Take that, Sisyphus!

Last night saw lots of sweating at the gym. This afternoon will bring more sweating outside during our cookout, and this evening will bring even more sweating at the club. I might even have my funky straight hair again, thanks to Jason.

Convergence 10.5, Saturday May 8th!

Just because you're not in Chicago, doesn't mean you can't still have a good time!

I'm opening the door of La Casa de Sangria on Saturday night, May 8th, for movies, drinking, and perhaps dancing in the attic! Door will open at 9 and close at 2 (per landlord's request, chill gathering will still be aloud as long as we are stealthy.)

Comment here if you'd like directions, and to RSVP so I can stock appropriately.
