Nom. Also, I get rewarded for all the overtime.

Occasionally at work I find myself actively fantasizing about what I'm going to have for dinner. Distressingly, this can start the moment I roll out of the warehouse some days, meaning I spend 8-10 hours dreaming of food. Today, it was visions of an Italian sausage sandwich that was plaguing me. One 11-hour day later, I make it home and bring my fantasy to tasty, tasty life. Along with the utterly awesome Cheddar and a Corona, it was divine.

In other self-fulfillment news, I have finally ditched the old crappy keyboard in favor of a new, much cooler one. A Logitech MK300 wireless keyboard and mouse. Far more "click" than the old keyboard, I like the mouse, and it has a function key I already adore that opens the calculator.

Because the driver whose route I've been covering in addition to my own did not make it back from Mexico yet; I worked yet another 11 hour day. So I'm going to bed now. But I did put in my time off request for Renovation before leaving for the day. Yes, I make vacation requests a year in advance.

My new (non-wireless) keyboard has the calculator key, too. Love it. And the volume up/down and pause buttons. And Back and Forward, below the space bar. It's too quiet, though; I've been using clicky-sounding keyboards for, um, 28 years now, and this is just strange.

Also, *envy* - now you've got me jonesing for an Italian sausage sub, with grilled onions and peppers. Not going out into the heat to get anything tonight, though; 's been too hot to eat for days. Supposed to get nicely cool tonight and only go up into the 70s tomorrow, thank ghods.
