My recruiter offered me the same job I left 3 years ago. He failed to read my resume or linked in.

I can't decide if I want to buy Might and Magic X on my MBP or not since I don't know how it will run.

I'm received an offer from another company that represents a 30% pay increase, but my current company is a little sketchy, so I have to wait until my paycheck arrived before telling them to go to hell in a way that doesn't burn all the bridges.

I wanted to get free organic coffee today at a "Healthy" market, but some Beech cut in from of me. She had 2 cups, limit is one. Then she starts coughing and blowing her nose. Needless to say I cursed rather loudly and passed on the coffee.

~~~ NS1 I can relate!

I woke up an hour before the alarm went off,.. and I came into work earlier than usually.

Yes, I will leave an hour earlier as well,... but, I have lost 1 hour of sleep.

Amazon has been using a courier service rather than UPS or FedEx lately to delivery my package and they don't show up until around 7PM. I hate waiting. =(

Have a friend visiting from Sweden next week and I can't think of what gift to have him get for my daughter (who's 6).

My secondary desktop's motherboard blew up last night, so my girlfriend wont be able to game with me when she comes to visit tonight. We'll have to watch a movie instead. THE HORROR, THE HORROR.

Forgot to pack my breakfast today so I had to stop at a coffee shop on my way into work and pay $2.50 for what I would guess is about 60 cents worth of oatmeal, water, and brown sugar.

Power was out, so I had to take a hot shower by flashlight and couldn't get my car out of the parking deck.

Internet was out so I had to tether my laptop to my cell phone.

McDonald's was only accepting cash so I had to use paper money.

Today's first world problem. I have so much stuff, there's no place on a table or counter to put my pimpin' laptop.

I have the day off from work, there's so much stuff on Netflix i can't make a decision.
