my own worst enemy

Working for the weekend

Friday, February 09, 2007

This week has been pretty easy at work, relatively. We finally moved out of the sweatshop and into a spacious bay with real desks and climate control, so if nothing else the environment is much improved. Plus the days are getting longer so it's no longer dark when I go home. Nevertheless, I can't wait for the weekend to start. That's in ten minutes, and it seems like an eternity.

I don't even have anything back planned for the weekend. Two of the roommates are out and the other is never around, it seems, so I guess I'll figure out something. I'm not too worried, though. I could use a laid couple of days.

When I leave work tonight I'm headed to meet Mel for dinner at the El Segundo Fish Co. I'm pretty stoked because I haven't gotten to chill with Mel in a while. I think we serve cheap therapy for each other. And we trade back massages -- something I sorely miss since I'm no longer near Ginger. After dinner we're meeting up with Gilbert to check out a "barcade" in Koreatown. Apparently they have vintage 80s arcade games like Rampage, Ms Pacman, and Galaga, and serve beer. Could I fit the target audience any better? Grew up in the 80s? Check. Nerd who loves old school games? Check. Loves to drink beer? Check. Tonight has some pretty high expectations to live up to.

I have successfully killed the last ten minutes of work. So long, suckers!
