Bread is good

It is 75 degrees today in St. Louis. We have the windows open and it is actually hot inside. This is not how I remember March growing up, but then again, I could be getting senile, so don’t trust me.

Things are going much better at work these days. My boss has assigned the dreaded ‘phone duty’ to someone in my group. I don’t know how she won that prize, but I suppose I should just be glad that it wasn’t me. I am finally getting to do some design work instead of always working on user issues. Over the past 2 weeks I have been working solely in ASP.NET with C#, SQL Server, and Active Directory. I like this significantly more than what I was doing. Could I actually be considered a developer now? Stay tuned for the exciting conclusion.

Just to confirm that I am becoming an old cat lady, we are adding another cat to our arsenal this week. She is a rescue cat. She’s black and tan and has long fur. Well, to be truthful, currently she has short fur – they had to shave her because she was so matted when they found her. There have been rumors that I have a thing for bald felines, but let me assure you, my reading audience that this is most assuredly false. I think we get to take her home on Wednesday.

I may be in the market for a new car pretty soon. I just got back from the mechanic who told me that my rotors are warped again. Since I’m now fixing the same problems more than once a year, I think it may be time for this car to go the way of old yeller. Does anyone have any ideas about what kind of car I should get? I’m fairly cheap, but considering what I’ve gone through with this one, I’m happy to pay for quality. Any advice for buying a new car?
