a yawn on the bus

i'm exhausted and on my way to an event that i'm completely disinterested in attending (like 90% of the people who'll be there). at least we don't have to be in uniform, although i'm secretly hoping that accidentally leaving my soldier's id at home will have me barred from entering...

i slept like a log, woke up alright, and got ready more or less on time this morning, but from the second i put my left foot in my boot it's been giving me grief. a bit later on my wrist got finicky, and my neck took most of the day to regain basic mobility... *whine*

the day itself was irritating, from microsoft's backward-ass rapid development environment to our labs being unavailable (and there's me playing private investigator and then being accused of leading witnesses when i discovered that foul play was afoot). the only good news was that a lot of the grunt-work i did a few weeks back can be totally automated - the guys thought i'd be upset, and as usual couldn't understand that although i've wasted my time, i'm happy that nobody else will have to...

it's such a "me" mentality. i can't stand such a complete lack of team spirit.

speaking of wasted time, a meeting with our SC that shouldn't have taken more than two minutes but got stretched to about 45, and made me think of the word "moron" way more than is healthy. i *love* being dilbert.

the mess hall food was almost good, so we told disgusting stories over lunch in order to keep things balanced :P

i've had a proper headache since i got in to work, which wasn't helped by mmf causing me to walk around for 45 minutes when i went to pay him a visit after work. the new office is crazy, there's a bunch of guys from the old crew working there, and i think going back to them after my service could be a lot of fun.

the bus ride is almost over, which means the fun is about to being :(
