Safely home after predicably boring drive. Cruise control ftw. Now to return the car!

Up early. Breakfast, then get the car and swing by the storage locker for some last-minute stuff

Last work day for 2008, rounded off by Xmas party tonight

I buggered up the weekly backup, this means I’ll have to drag my drunk ass back to the office to make sure the offsite people get it tonight

xmas party starts at 5pm … 1.5 hours to go… work motivation rapidly nearing zero…
