so…yesterday turned out to be the longest work day I’ve had in 6-7 years: 6am - 9 pm.

True, there was a quarterly business meeting last night that might have involved some drinks, but seriously, how relaxing is a drink if you’re talking about work?

Yesterday, being Thursday, the local Classic Rock station was pulling off a few three-fer-Thursday blocks on my drive in.

Let me just tell you…a three-fer block of Pink Floyd at 5:30am is bound to make sleepy drivers get into accidents.

Playing “Us and Them” is too much like playing a freakin’ lullaby for the newly dubbed rush hour time I like to call “naptime on 93.”

Add “Comfortably Numb” and you’re lucky if you’re don’t miss your exit.

At least they wrapped it up with “Have A Cigar” to try and bring you back around just as your tires are hitting the rumble strip — nothing like Roger Waters’ bass mixed with that “oh shit! my whole car just turned into a vibrator! what the fuck was that!?” feeling.

The Intern and I tried to give Kim some pointers on fantasy football drafts for our upcoming work league.

She acts all “blissfully ignorant” but I think she’s hustling us.

“Dang” is my new favorite pseudo-swear.

I would normally be pretty down about the Sox being swept by the Skankees, but my father-in-law didn’t call with his usual “get out your broom” comments, and I’m taking that as an overwhelming declaration of defeat from the Bronx.

Apparently, on the later train that I’m on, we transport Sewer workers…either that or my entire car just set the world record for most people busting ass in an enclosed space at one time.

It’s been said, many times and in many ways, but Erika is always right!

Dang!
