Bored at work.

This sucks. My boss is out, and I have nothing to do... Soooo Bored.

Its a Friday, and its a slow day here at the IT office.


What is there to do online that is work safe, and entertaining???

I'll swap with you. My boss is here and that always makes the atmosphere toxic here.

I usually keep a book and magazines around.
Either that or I just leave early. If anyone needs me I have my cell phone.

Ah, the joy of working from home.

In my totally office appropriate attire (AC/DC pj pants and holey t-shirt).

Bouncing baby Lola (world's coolest sk8er queen granddaughter) on my knee.

Listening to Rod Stewart.

Answering an occasional work email.

And planning our move to Connecticut.

Works for me!

I'm always amazed at how much computers have impacted productivity in the American workplace. Aren't you?

Yes - this is the time of day where people go to the restroom and never come back.

That's the way to do it, Jim! Looks like that little boarder is going to keep you busy!

Whereabouts in CT are you coming to?

Starting off in Waterbury, eventually hoping to get some land and build a straw bale house somewhere purdy.

The little boarder will be staying on the left coast - that's her dad (my son) coaching her on the finer points of skate boarding

Need an agent? Are you familer with Waterbury, CT? PM or call me we should talk.

I had a busy day today. Took pictures of my finaly done but will not sell new construction house. Made up some new adds, for some reason that took half the morning. Wasted some time on MS, and prepped for my two open houses this weekend, plus I'm going to look at multi families with my buddy tomarrow. I'm going to find him a killer deal on a 2-3 family. I found two within a stones throw of the water at great prices!

I'm always buys on Friday's, I usualy take Wednesdays off.

I gotta keep working the SDL needs a paint job!
