I think my disease peaked yesterday and I'm finally on the mend. I managed to get myself into the office almost on time. And I must admit, I feel pretty good today. Not great, but the best I've felt in a week.

Today is the Friday before a three-day weekend. Here at the state, the Friday before a holiday weekend is about as eventful as the holiday itself. I expect this place to be a ghost town by 2pm.

Yesterday was payday. Chris dropped off my paycheck for me on his way home. I had been so bored being home sick most of the week that I decided I needed to try out Super Mario Sunshine. So when I went out to deposit my check I picked up a Gamecube, the game, the guide, and a memory card.

Crap... there is work to be done.
