Man, this whole work thing is getting in the way of my blogging! 9 hours a day and not a single photo of anything cool to show for it! Tonight however, I did have some homework. I'm one of two Green Coordinators for the town and since we just started a new fiscal year at work we've got a new budget to help the "green" efforts of the town. One of our brilliant brainstorms was to supplement the two coffee pots in our break room with pump pots. Brew the pot of coffee then dump it in the pump pot allowing us to kill the power to the coffee makers. Kari (my co-green coordinator) and I spent part of the day shopping for pump pots finally finding one at Bed Bath & Beyond. It's actually the same brand as our iced coffee carafe that hangs out in our fridge so I expect it will work marvelously. I ran there after dinner (a delicious meal of bbq'd turkey burgers) and found them right away. I even had a 20% off coupon for it.
We brought home our little bundle of joy today, Alistair, our laptop which has been at the computer doctor since last week getting a new hard drive since the old one took a dump. Fantastic fun! The best part was that I left my prescription sunglasses there so I'll have to go back tomorrow and hope they're still there. Brilliant! Chris gets the unenviable duty of trying to reinstall Windows on it this evening. Since we had a disk of questionable origin they couldn't install it for us. So far it is not going well. I predict yelling and other productive actions. I hate computers, I hate them so much. Computers and cars have a special place in hell. I guarantee it.
