all sleep and no play makes Scott a dull boy; plus, pictures from work!

Yesterday I got home from work and pretty much did absolutely nothing but sleep – this irregular bedtime schedule of mine has just got to stop! So basically, here I am up at five o’clock in the morning trying to take care of some of the stuff that I had wanted to do last night…it’s just insane, I tell ya…

For probably the eightieth time this year, I started up my exercise routine again this morning, only this time I’m actually gonna stick to it – I feel like I have to. It’s not so much that I want to drop a little weight, even though of course that’s also a factor, but I just don’t want to end up like my Dad and the rest of the men in my family. Phase Two will be kicking in here shortly, as soon as I can get to the grocery store for some better food and my pots and pans show up in the mail. It won’t be easy because oddly enough, healthy food is more expensive than junk food, but it certainly beats putting yourself in the hospital from eating microwavable fried foods everyday. Nonetheless, if you happen to hear a news story about some guy’s death from exercising and eating too many vegetables in the Tampa Bay area, don’t be surprised!

And I finally took my camera to work with me, too. Apparently the camera part of it still works, it’s just the display that’s toast, but it’s still really weird having to use an actual view-finder after being used to the LCD for so long – is this how people actually took photos back in the old days?! Even though I’m afraid to see the estimates, I’ll have to hunt down a camera shop this weekend and find out how much cash it’s going to take to have the thing repaired. I really like this camera and it’s been very good to me over the years, but I’ve got a feeling that it’ll be cheaper to get a new one than to tear this one apart…

There’s still a bit of a glare because I was in a hurry, but it still should give those from far away and far-far away a little better idea of where I get to work every day. (all were shot from the 20th floor, except obviously for the one on the ground) Yes, it’s very high up…

Now it’s off to do battle with the morning rush – have a great day! 🙂
