Drinking mango-peach flavored water and catching up on the forum.

RE: What's everyone up to right now?
Beating my head against my desk at work. I have a ship whose port anchor is buried, and the pilot is unable to free it. This plays out in one of three ways: (1) the pilot eventually frees the anchor with no incident (best case scenario but unlikely); (2) we hire a salvage crew to cut the chain, retrieve the anchor, and re-attach (at $2000/hr. plus $5000 for their transit to and from the vessel plus additional pilotage and tug expenses to anchor the vessel while waiting for re-attachmen); and (3) the chain breaks while the pilot tries to free it, resulting in a $20,000/day salvage job (plus pilotage/tug/transit expenses) with no guarantee of success at retrieval.

*Sigh*

I knew I should have called in sick today.

Watching the breaking news about apparent gunshots fired at Naval Medical Center San Diego.

Another day of patient conferences.

I"m scheduled to see the most annoying patient this afternoon.

Oh, the fun.

Playing Cluedo with my mum while I was at Uni:

Haha! Now I wonder why this pt. is annoying.

Me? Watching the normal local newscast. The emergency at the Naval Med Center seems over.

Finally checking out HBO's gay show called Looking, surprised that I did not watch it earlier.

My theory is: pipes in the walls turn it into a Faraday Cage (and I'm not budging!)... the same thing happens in my bathroom.... Tongue

OHM MY GOD!

Pizza night and deciding what to watch on TV tonight or whether to put in a movie.

Tuesday.

Nothing is on on Tuesdays...
