Something New: Week 16 – A New Commute
by Ranil on Jul.05, 2009, under Life in Australia, Something New
Someone once pointed out that going to work wasn’t necessarily a bad thing. I can tell you though I’ll take lying on a beach somewhere and sipping on a cold beer over hopping on a train to North Sydney any day. After my many months of travelling, drinking, sleeping in, and watching my bank account do crazy roller coaster ups and downs I head back to the working force. I trade T shirts and boardshorts for button up shirts and slacks; reading books for reading code; boarding planes and taking photos for boarding trains and a paycheck.
Back to the grind

Well, after a nice three day weekend (four for some) here I am, back doing the grind. The picture for today gives insight into the greater workings of cubicle life. Notice the awesomeness of three monitors, their colorful glaze hinting at greater programming productivity. See the faint outline of my "Grande Americano" and ponder at the life bringing warmth and caffiene it provides after a long relaxing weekend.
I’d like to take this opportunity to thank Jose and Wendy Barton (Jose took Wendy’s last name because we all know she wears the pants in the relationship) for inviting me to their baby shower. They are expecting a baby boy very soon and Wendy hopes it has Jose’s legs, but her intelligence. I whole heartedly agree.
