Finished a big feature, and now I need to write a unit test for it, but I'm too damn lazy

There's a stunning tall blonde girl with huge you know what working in a start-up next door.
I'm pondering on ways to present myself to her as a model photographer and invite her for a studio session.

I was super busy the whole day, but things have finally wound down, and I'm waiting for the SO to finish her workout so we can go watch A Scanner Darkly at the Drafthouse. :beer:

In the meantime, I'm going to keep studying for the GMAT. :cookie:

at work and surfing ATOT / reading the newspaper.

stuck here for another 5 hours :( I figure, the 12-8 guys are probably going to dump everything they can on the 4-12 shift so they can leave early, so I may as well relax while I can.

it is so beer-thirty ... !

my whole week has been like this - first all kinds of computer problems, then huge amounts of time spent training the three new guys in the group, then finally a fair amount of time playing "recruiter" for a bunch of friends at a company that just shut their site down. lucky for them we're hiring.
