Keeping the Riff Raff out

Here I thought this week wasn't going to be busy. Boy was I wrong! There's a major deadline at work coming up, I've been working hard on that, I'm in a new temporary cube, it's kinda a nice change of scenary and then the normal gyming etc. My allergies have been going crazy with all the dust they've kicked up around the office for the move. It just never ends.

Speaking of the new office, I got a tour of it last week. It looks really good and it'll be nice to work so close to home. I have an office facing south by the window, it'll be nice and sunny and hopefully warm. I picked the quieter side of the building, I find it easier to go towards the noise and fun than have it come to me. The 3rd floor used to be a mail sorting area and there's a walkway all around it with windows looking down, supposedly to catch people stealing out of the mail. After all the renovations, they kept that walkway. It's kinda interesting and funny.

I've really been craving red meat lately. It's not even funny. Here's the thing, I don't really like red meat. The only way I like it is if it's in ground meat form and from what I know, that's not really meat anymore. I enjoy it when it's seasoned so much that I can't really taste the meat....So I went on a vitamin spree yesterday. I must be low in something, I'm thinking Iron. I normally take a multivitamin but it's been a couple months, vitamins are just so expensive that I kinda stopped. So no more skimping on vitamins, lets see if that's what I need and if the red meat craving stops.

I can't wait till the weekend. I might have to come into work, but banking some holiday time is never a bad thing. I'm going to set up my Christmas tree this weekend. I'm so excited about that! I started looking at all the weekends until Christmas and there aren't too many free, which is why setting up the tree this weekend would be the best. Also need to get a start on Christmas shopping, I hate shopping in December. Saturday is date night. We're going to the Symphony and out for supper. The orchestra is playing a Tchakovsky piece, my favorite. I also think there's a guest pianist. Exciting!

A Calgary trip is in the works for the December 1st weekend. All you Calgarian's take note, I'll be in contact with you soon once we have our dates finalized. And Saskatchewanians who want something from Calgary, put in your orders now, I think an Ikea trip might be in the cards, plus Darrell's sis has an art exhibit up in downtown Calgary at the Globe theater, I suggest you Calgarian's check it out.

Really, I'm procrastinating to find a problem in my latest code. But I suppose I should get back to that.....
