Since I got off work yesterday two things have happened in the sports world that are making this weekend quite possibly the best weekend I have had in a while!
As some of you know I am a huge sports fan, and more specifically a Nuggets basketball fan as well as a Kansas City Chiefs football fan. Last night the Nuggets managed to hold the first place team in the Western Conference under 80 points. The best part of this is that the Lakers average 109 points a game, which is a huge defensive stance by the Nuggies! This is a good sign from the Nuggets especially because of the recent loss to Boston at home where it would’ve appeared they had no defensive skills at all!
The second piece of good news which I just found out was that the Kansas City Chiefs just signed Mike Vrabel and Matt Cassel from the N.E. Patriots! I guess that puts all the talk of who the starting QB in KC will be this next season to rest, at least for a while. Plus the pickup of Vrabel can’t hurt the defense who is very young and could use the leadership of a vetran linebacker.
These two events along with some personal events that are taking place have combined to make this one sweet weekend for me so far. Right now I am going to step away from the PC and enjoy the nice weather we have here in Denver and possibly go hit some golf balls. Cha!!
Is it just me or do Fridays always turn out to be the busiest day of the week? Three weeks in a row it has been non-stop for at least eight hours and even more on some occasions. I haven’t even had a chance to work on anything I had planned to work on today in lieu of all the issues that have come up, just like last Friday and the Friday before that. The one advantage of this Friday versus the last is that I am not on call this week so once I leave today it is all over until Monday!
I just thought I would share since it seems as though there is some mysterious ether that decides to bring issue to the system on Friday’s. I am sure some of you might find this to be true in your line of work too, but it seems to be more prevalent in the Computer field.
One way to find out would be to forget Friday’s all together and make it US custom to have a 4 day work week, what do you think?
Rock Chalk!
I bet you are also wondering what in the hell I am doing up blogging about this at 7:45 in the morning on a Saturday? That is a good question and the answer is I have been up virtually all night. I was awake until about 2am working on assorted things, relaxing, since it was Friday night. It was my own fault staying up that late especially since I am on-call all week. Monday-Thursday were fine, maybe a call here and there but nothing I couldn’t fix relatively quick and be back in bed. Not tonight. The issue at 3am has kept me up since then and it is all I can do to just keep my eyes open.
Anyhow, we will just chalk this post up to the need for a rant and call it even since there really was no content, or knowledge passed along in this post. Aside from all that… Rock Chalk!
