Waiting for Pizza, an existentialist play about gluttony. And random shit like that.

• After the day I had, a pizza strike was in order.


• Kirsten will be home about the same time as the pizza. She's picking up our tickets and pit passes for a monster truck rally.


• Yes, we're going to a monster truck rally.


• Yes, there will be pictures.


• Hey, I drive a truck and listen to Heavy Metal! It's a natural!


• Besides, my old big garish belt buckle is getting worn down.


• You cannot kill it: After my surgery, my Bluetooth headset vanished. I figured it had been kicked under the bed or something.


• Then I found it.. when it bounced out of the load of laundry I was taking out of the dryer.


• Yup, full cycle in washer and dryer. Not overly recommended for electronics, yes?


• But I plugged it in and it took a charge. Works just fine.


• So be advised: the Jabra BT125 cannot be killed.


• Had to inform someone at work that $VENDOR does not operate like we do. They take four hours to process order paperwork, and their model is for orders to be ready the day after the order is received.


• So sending me to $VENDOR 45 minutes after you faxed the order in is going to cause problems.


• Luckily, they were dead slow and able to help me.


• Still did close to ten hours without a break.


• Why is it the short weeks seem to last the longest? I'm freaking exhausted and feel like I've worked two straight weeks.


• Unlike Godot, pizza has arrived.


• Cleaning begins again tomorrow.


• Early to bed tonight.

Why is it the short weeks seem to last the longest? I'm freaking exhausted and feel like I've worked two straight weeks.

In my case, it's because I've had to cram five days of work into four days. Plus the usual routine is disrupted, so everything takes longer than usual because people aren't as efficient…

It's different for us. Some of my regular drops took a four day weekend. Some worked Monday because they are on strict "finish-by" contracts. So the actual volume of work wasn't that different. It just felt like it took forever to get through four days of driving.
