Went for a pint with Rich and Alberto after work today. Rich gave me the professional advice to not bitch about my job and/or manager in a public forum (like, say, on the internet), so I'll leave it at that.

What I will say however, is that even though I have to be back at work in exactly 9 1/2 hours, i think I am going to go for a sunday night bike ride before I go to bed. After all, it's a clear night, and like 11 degrees out. Considering the fact that it was SNOWING two days ago (what is this, Canada?!) I think it will be worthwhile. I'll leave you with cryptic lyrics that have been running through my head today.

Pearl Jam - Present Tense

Do you see the way that tree bends? Does it inspire?
Leaning out to catch the sun's rays. A lesson to be applied.
Are you getting something out of this all encompassing trip?

You can spend your time alone redigesting past regrets, ohh, or you can come to terms and realize you're the only one who can forgive yourself. Oh.
Makes much more sense to live in the present tense.

Have you ideas on how this life ends?
Checked your hands and studied the lines.
Have you the belief that the road ahead ascends off into the light?
Seems that needlessly it's getting harder to find an approach and a way to live.
Are we getting something out of this all encompassing trip.

You can spend your time alone redigesting past regrets, ohh, or you can come to terms and realize you're the only one who cannot forgive yourself. Oh, ohh.
Makes more sense to live in the present tense.
