Was just thinking of this thread earlier.

The downside of an abbreviated holiday week is that the following week reminds you of just how thoroughly, intolerably awful five consecutive days of work can be.

I'm listening to, and occasionally sneaking a peek at, Hatfield and the North's final concert on youtube. Cool discovery, so my afternoon is actually pretty good!

58 minutes until me and my wife skip town for the next few days. This is crawling.

I think we've finally reached that point of the year where it's technically always a Friday afternoon at work. Soooooo many other things I could be doing right now if I didn't have to pretend to be "working" (i.e. stretching 1.5 hours of work to fit the contours of an eight-hour work day).

It's getting there. The fact that I'm seeing a big blockbustery movie tonight makes it feel even more like a Friday.

Clearly you don't work in IT support. Although neither do I at the moment. Anyway, shout out to all the homes currently dealing with last minute PEBKACs. Oh and thanks so much to Microsoft for pushing out Win7 updates today of all days.

I'm back working in IT support, and only taking the 24th and the 2nd off, in addition to 25th, 26, and the 1st, which are Bank Holidays anyway. I'm working 29/30/31, but that honestly feels like it's going to be a holiday away from my ignorant bigoted family.

I spent the last hour at work hoping no-one would come into the office with a problem and fortunately no-one did. Now, three day Bank Holiday weekend is GO!

There's nothing like reading an article about anogenital sniffing among lab mice to get you ready for the weekend.
