Welcome the sweet release...

Man what a long week, thank god it friday tomorrow. I just wish that today was friday.

The UFC pay per view is this weekend and it should be a good one, along with that the new ultimate fighter season started last night. I am not really sure what compels a person to do that type of thing. I mean I couldnt do it, getting punched and kicked in the face doesnt appeal to me. Of course this doesnt mean I dont like to watch it or find enjoyment out of watching other people get bloodied up. I do, it is entertaining to watch!

Ugh Fall

This time of year is always a mixed bag for me. I enjoy the colors, the temperatures start to get to my preferred zones and I find that the cooler nights and more darkness gives me a much better sleep.

However it also means that the white stuff is coming, heres hoping its delayed. Very delayed.

I have been on a bit of a collectors spree lately picking up these 6" transformers. They have re-released them and a few remakes of the originals which are very cool and detailed. I havent opened the boxes yet as I am not sure how I want to display them. I also have to find where I want to put them as shelf space is at a premium, no big deal though. They are pretty sweet as they are. With the help of ebay I have also been able to acquire a few of the original transformers, optimus prime, ultra magnus, starscream, and thundercracker (for those that know what these are).

I love ebay, you can pretty much find anything you want there. Sometimes I will just randomly look around and see what is being sold, it is a good way to kill time and see what kind of things people are buying and selling. Plus there are many really great deals to be had, now whether this stuff happened to "fall off the back of a truck" who really knows?

Yes I know that these machines need to be put out...

Its true that life flies by much too fast and lately I have been sitting wondering where all the time actually goes. I have also noticed that I find myself wishing there was a couple more hours in the day, there never seems to be enough. Anyways lots of stuff has happened but there is no point in going that far back so I will just mention that things are busy as ever at work with all kinds of projects on the go. Tons to do and I think a lot of people are feeling the pressure, I try not to let it get to me. There is no point in sweating this stuff outside the office, at the end of the day I shut off the office in my mind and leave it at the doors.

It doesn’t help a lot that there is no real leadership of any kind and therefore no real timeframe or planned strategy as far as how projects should be run and the order of which to do them. Everything is basically tossed into a hat and you randomly pick what you want to do that day. Its is more frustrating than anything but sometimes a person is more obsessed with the title then the job. Usually this means they are not experienced enough to do the job well and lead. The first reaction is stress and then blame everyone else, poor leadership goes a long way in damaging a team.

In non work related news I have acquired a cat named Rosco. He is a 1.5 year old tabby and friendly as can be. So far he and the rabbit have been getting along, I think it is mainly that they don’t know what the hell the other one is. Just to be safe though, when I am not around I make sure the door to the room the rabbit cage is in is shut. Cats are too curious for their own good sometime, don’t need the rabbit all stressed out.

That is about it for the quick update, things are going well though I cant really complain. Of course the thing about that is there is nobody that wants to listen to the complaints. J Later.
