I want to be a loser.
As most of you are now aware, I quit my job last week. Everyone seems to be asking "Where are you going now?" or "Who stole you from Novell?" or even "Where will you next be unleashing your powers of awesome?"
I want to be a loser. I want to go to sleep at 4am, wake up at noon, watch tv, play WoW, and smoke all day. I want to hang out with my friends, see my girlfriend for more than three waking hours at a time, and go to the mall in the middle of the day. There will be no room for meetings, leveraging existing technology, finding synergy, weighing organic and inorganic options, reaching alignment, or checking to see if something is "on my radar." I'm not an aircraft carrier, I don't have a fucking radar.
In closing, my aspirations for the next several weeks are low. I hope to somehow use other people's money, get kicked out of some places, and have no job prospects. I want to be a loser. |

I fell asleep really early on Saturday night. So, at like 7:45am, I left my apartment for work. Perhaps it's because I was nice and warm in my apartment. Or, perhaps it's because I don't really feel like working on a Sunday. Or, maybe it's because it's like -4 billion degrees outside. But, holy shit it's cold. Really cold. Sound the alarms, ring the bells, call the fucking national guard. As I approached Harvard Square, the thermometer claimed it was -3. I think it either stopped working or started reporting the temperature in Kelvin. If you're in the Boston area and you don't have to go out today, don't. If you do have to go out, change your plans. Seriously. My face still hurts. |

At least, technically speaking, it's morning anyway. I've been super busy at work this week. This is the second time in the past seven days that I've spent over 16 hours at the office. Also, I realized late last night that I lost roughly four hours on Sunday. Not in the "time flies when you're... whatever" sense, but I actually don't remember them. Frighteningly, it seems I made a few calls. Everyone that I talked to has been surveyed and I didn't act odd in any way. Oh, and before I get flooded with rude comments -- yes, I was sober. |

Perhaps it's because I'm bored with everything right now but I really need new music. Oh, and I'm still alive. |

...And this is no exception. Picture it. SLC to Boston flight, albino in the middle. Five hundred pound guy on my left (we'll call him "Mean Big Dude") and five hundred pound guy on my right (we'll call him "Nice Big Dude"). That's really all I need to say. "Nice Big Dude" is so named because he realized I was sort of fucked and gave me the window seat shortly before takeoff.
Thank you Nice Big Dude!
During the latter half of this month, I'll be home for an astonishing 43 hours. Woo! On that note, does anyone know someone who will keep me company in Paris on Sunday morning? No, I didn't mean like that. I have like a five hour stop there and CDG sucks. |

While in Germany last week, I had to urinate in public. I have never done this before. I mean, sure, I've had some emergency situations in the past, where I ducked down some dark alley or in a dark corner of a parking lot, but never with other people there -- like right there. It turns out, at country fairs and other big outdoor events, this is just what they do. I guess this experience has helped me grow as a person. I don't like growing.
Also, it turns out that when German women are drunk, they think I'm really hot and can't resist touching me.
...No, I don't think the two are related. |

I have included this for those of you who don't read /. or perhaps just missed it. I... I don't have anything else to say about it really. Um, wow. |

| Back in Boston |
[Mar. 26th, 2005|11:45 pm] |
Still suffering from PCFS, Post Conference Fatigue Syndrome, I stayed in all day today. My sinus headache is back with full force and I woke up with a swollen eye. I think I might actually have to go to a doctor. If you are still reading, you have probably realized that I do, in fact, have nothing to say. I felt obligated, for some reason, to no longer have the Northwest Airlines entry be the most recent thing appearing here.
By the way, if ever in Salt Lake City, stay at the Hotel Monaco. ...Be sure to get the goldfish option. |

Dear Mr. Northwest,
Your airline sucks. In exchange for giving you two grand, albeit by proxy, you gave me a headache, your employees informed me that they were too busy to escort me, a visually impaired passenger and epitome of awesomeness, to the gate. Oh, I almost forgot the free demonstration of the repair and operation of the air conditioning system on the Airbus Industries 330-300 Jet. May you get ass raped with a six foot spiked dildo with a copy of the ADA on the end of it. Lube'em up boys.
...It's a good thing I'm a peaceful guy. |

BATHROOM. Of all the things I hate waking up to, water coming through my ceiling takes the cake. Even worse, is it happening two days in a row. |

I have been ultra busy over the last couple of weeks.
Last week, I was in Sat Lake City for Brainshare. I was amazed not only at the number of attendees, but also at their stamina. I have never been to a show where attendees stay for the duration of the show. Usually, people are like worker bees for the first day or two; running around the hive, collecting swag. By the third day though, their frail bodies have given out, yielding to the pounds of marketing junk they have been lugging around for the past 48 hours and jaded by the bright lights and booth babes. Not the case here though. The Salt Palace was still packed on Friday morning.
 Joe, James, and Josh looking at... something.
My latest trip to Utah also marks the first mission of my new phone, a Nokia 3650. I was worried because it is much bigger than my T68i but I got used to it pretty easily and it still fits in my pocket. "Is that a 3650 in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?" Um, yeah, I am a dork. The selling points for me boil down to two things. First, the reception on the 3650 is much better than on the T68i. I had three different people comment on how good it sounded. Second, its over-sized screen is really easy for me to read. The picture above was taken with the camera on the 3650. |
