i'm really bad at eating apples. i'm definitely an apple slices girl...but here's the thing: if you cut your apple before you go to work, the slices are gonna turn brown by the time you want to eat them. thumbs down on brown apple slices. i mean, you could rub them with lemon to keep them from oxidizing, but who wants to take time to do that? thus, the apple stays whole and is difficult to eat. it gets stuck in your teeth and apple juice is flying everywhere. why is it that fruit tastes so much better when chilled? mmm.

wow. the guy in the next cube just left. he's always here really late, making me feel guilty for leaving early (early in my office = before 6pm). i heard my manager leave, too. hmmm....do i stay or do i go? ahhhh! i must say that i was actually productive today. i learned stuff, too. it's kind of exciting to learn new stuff. i might actually be smart in my conference call on thursday. i hate being the junior engineer that just sits there not being able to contribute. although...it's scary to say anything conclusive in front of a client...they're gonna spend money based on what you just said, and wow, it would suck if you were wrong and cost them 50 grand.

decision: i'm going home.
