Am I the only dork at the office on a Sunday?

yup-- the rest of us uncool kids bring work home when we have to, usually ; P

I'll be able to do that once I get my laptop, which is in process.

Although I like being in the office when no one else is here.

Nope. I'm sitting here, running through the design phase of an issue tracking MOD for phpBB. I'd debating the merits of:

a) fully integrating with the forums.
b) making it independent, except for stealing the user/group/session/template stuff.

Not fun.

I'm at the office!

Not your office, I mean, that would be pretty creepy.

I am the next cigarette you smoke.

Ah yeah, I'm going to have to go ahead and ask you to come in on Sunday.

I just got back from the dog park so nope, no office for me this weekend.

On a mild tangent, how many people are tempted to, um, "rub one out" in the office if they work on the weekend?

I just got home from work, thank god. I always work Sundays, though.

I'm working at home today -- big freelance project that I GOTTA be done with by tomorrow. Goal is to finish in a few hours so I still have a chance for a quick trip to the gym before dinner with the boy.

my job is talking about allowing us to work from home a few days a week. This is a plus in that it allows me to work drunk and naked. well, more often, at least.

I was thinking of going into work today, but instead I cleaned my bedroom.

I felt that the messy bedroom was sapping my at-home productivity.

Because I never did this in the other thread...

Front of my work area. The PowerBook is my personal machine, the Dell my Windows workstation.

Back of my work area. This Dell is my Linux workstation, and the iMac (iLamp) is my OS X workstation.

Well looky here! I'm done with office projects- I might just make it home in time for West Wing (although I desperately need to grocery shop). Woo woo!

I'm in the office on Sunday and it is dark outside. How pathetic is that?

i never leave "the office"?

posted by ethylene 08 January | 20:34

I'm not in the office Saturday or today or tomorrow! La la la la la.

But I was in the basement mad scientist shop (it also has beer taps and a pistol range) until 11:30 pm last night and then from 6:30 am until 1:30 pm today putting the finishing touches on the corpse grinder. Mmmmmm. Sausage...
