today's post brought to you by Wendy's french fries, graciously obtained through the largesse of a coworker.

because my swashbuckling attitude has ruffled a few feathers here in the office, i am taking my show on the road this weekend, shipping out early this afternoon for a tour of duty in soon-to-be snow-blanketed Oberlin, OH. but despite the antagonism & derision of my coworkers, my Quixotic attempt to reverse engineer a project bequeathed to me on Wednesday continues unabated. progress is being made, obstacles overcome, objections overruled. i'm asking no quarter and taking no prisoners, typing furiously at the computer then swooping dramatically by the printer to pick up my printouts, a wicked looking pen clamped between my teeth.

sure work may be boring, but at least i can pretend it's interesting.

i'm Doug, not Bob Dylan and i'm outta here.
