Took day off today, courtesy of my boss at work…got some errands done including oil change for car (Jiffy Lube), miscellaneous cleaning, and generally being a bum. Have to go and move car in the morning as parking was bad due to Cubs day game.

Cold front came through last night….temps now in the upper 70’s…much better!

Doing web design work, want to get my MCSA (Microsoft Certified Systems Administrator) certification. Seems like I am spinning my wheels. OK…I am putting my foot down. I will have 1 of my MCSA tests scheduled by August 1st, you heard it hear first!

92 degrees again today! :O It’s so hot my ears are sweating!

Just bought my parking car sticker online from the City of Chicago website. Nice to be able to buy online, no need to wait in line. But why does it cost more for a Chicago license ($75) than a state license (around $55)?

Finally! A beautiful 80+ day today, although those of us lakefront only got to 75, but it was so nice! I think we are finally finished with these 40 degree evenings (very strange weather this year!)

Went to Hoffman Estates and had lunch at with my teammates today. Luck was good, and I got to put the entire check on my Friday’s card! Woo hoo! More points!
Took 1 1/2 hours to come back via the shuttle. Glad I didn’t have to drive!

Now we are talking real money. Mega Millions jackpot is at $175 million! Think what I can do with that money ;) Quote/Thought of the Day:“Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I cannot accept, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of those people I had to kill today because they pissed me off and also, help me to be careful of the toes I step on today, as they may be connected to the ass that I may have to kiss tomorrow. Amen.” � Office prayer.
