with a solid beat in my head

totally covered in sweat, but today it's a good feeling.

why? what on earth could make being all sweaty alright?

i'll tell you.

today started off on a good note. then i hit the bus - i think i'd rather be late than get on that line again. we were crammed together in an extremely personal fashion, and on a hot morning, no air-conditioner can come to the rescue. there's a lesson learned right there.

i had a good laugh when i got to the base - hundreds of soldiers hiding around the corner because they were performing inspections at the gate. i don't see what's so hard about wearing all your required gear and keeping your shoes looking relatively clean... in the IDF, it's considered "cool" to look a mess. i'm so glad i'm too old for that shit.

i continued on my mission to read my emails - i'm down to less than 100 unread. and i've discovered a lot of things that i should've known at the time. figures i'd miss stuff if i couldn't read the memos.

lunch was alright, then i took siesta with s'belle... aside from a nap, i got some "rough 'n tumble" in (nothing too interesting, but it was fun), and a backrub to boot ;)

afterwards, the kid and i spent the afternoon "learning" about some funky possibilities. i rate we're going to be able to help out a lot of people with what we're doing in our systems. that's a good feeling.

a fun bus-ride to work, including making some headway with a foxy young 'un, and work itself was spunktacularly good. i finished a really big project, and have almost completed my primary one... i just need to check tomorrow that the data it told me it inserted into my database is correct. our new projects are looking really interesting, too.

just after i got to work, the other south-african contacted me. that news in potentia? it's a bit more in potentia. i'm rather excited; i had to work hard to keep myself under control ^_^

i left work with a sense of completion. now to shower and sleep. i feel like i deserve it :D
