A different kind of wasted

Song of the day:
Kettcar - Die Ausfahrt zum Haus deiner Eltern
Up since 6 in the morning, arrived at work at 8, shut down my laptop 11 hours later and went home. I'd never have thought non-physical work could be this draining. On the other hand, I managed to do almost the entire set of tests today, which ain't too bad I guess. So on Monday it'll just be clean-up work, and then wait for the new set. Rinse and repeat...

On the positive side, at least there's something to do now, and with the schedules being as tight as they are, it's not going to get boring soon I guess.

Played a game of pool with my cute colleague today. I'm really starting to believe she's got a thing for me. Bad thing is, she's got a boyfriend already, and I don't want to tamper with relationships anymore (that goes to all the people who keep telling I'd never change ;|).
Would be fitting though, to meet the first girl in years who is both nice, good-looking and interested in me (and not under-age) in Finland. What are the odds? Yeah right. 'Hello Murphy' and all that...

I thought it was time for a picture again, and since I've not posted a decent one of myself for a long while (I actually can't remember if I ever uploaded one to be honest), enjoy. It's taken with my phone's cam though, so quality ain't too great...
Please take special note of the vast amounts of hair I've actually managed to not only grow, but even to put in something remotely resembling a 'style'. By the time I get back from Finland, it should have grown to a length that allows decent headbanging again...!

I'll finish with a quote today, from the song of the day. Those of you who understand it, enjoy.
"Also wo fängts an / Und wann wird es enden
Mit Spatzen und Tauben / Dächern und Händen"

"So where does it start / and when will it end
With sparrows and pidgeons / roofs and hands"

So babelfish wasn't THAT far off. It doesn't translate too well though. I think the saying exists in English as well, I'm just not sure on the exact wording, but it goes something like this:

"A sparrow in your hand is better than a pidgeon on the roof"

And what's wrong with the pic! :)

You look like some Finnish Fisherman on that pic. I and a few others I showed it to agreed on that.
