today i broke my two month streak, and came in to the office for the first time since The Departure. it was either that, or, well, there was not really any other choice.

it is good to see that some things never change.

someone stole my chair while i was gone.

joe will be pleased to learn that, as of 4:23 PM, the beverage refrigerator is unplugged.

the three two-litre bottles of subsidy-driven, corn syrup-laden, tooth-rotting beverages, and the blue box of i-don't-know-what (there is no english on the box i could find, and it "has been there for some time," according to the only other remaining hula developer) have been moved to the other refrigerator in the kitchen. i did not unplug this one.

additionally, the cooler was the source of an obnoxious din; now silenced, a casual conversation can now be held in this room. the benefits of environmental responsibility are often quite serendipitous.
