Worst two days of work ever
I was called into an emergency at work (as much as doing IT stuff for the government can be considered an emergency) yesterday at 10 am.
I've been working non-stop since 10am yesterday on this. Worked til 12:30 last night. Woke up at 6:30 and started working. Took a small break each night to put Katie to bed.
This shit sucks. I hate cleaning up after other people's messes and having it affect my time at home. But at least I'll get some kudos from my customer to put in my performance eval.

You are a good dad to carve out time for your daughter.

All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost; the old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost.

You and me both Dave. Sorry that you're going through it but I'm sure you'll appreciate it once you're on the other side. Everything would be so much easier if weren't for other people. ;-)

You definitely want to be free this afternoon so you can watch Carolina's spring game on ESPN.
