Somebody's gonna get an ass kickin...

So I come into work this morning to find out that some jackass had deleted a central program I wrote. Now if it was a mistake I could understand, but yesterday someone had deleted an entire folder with all of our departments reports. And now come to find out that the export team had their Nafta file mysteriously disappear three days ago. This does not seem like a coincidence to me. Three major items for our company mysteriously get deleted over three days. Help Desk is doing a trace now and when I find out who did it, they better watch their ass. I'm out for blood.

Naked Man Strikes Again!

So this last weekend we all celebrated Justyna's birthday. Friday night about 18 of us had a lovely dinner at DragonFly then moved on the the Buzz Club (I think thats the name, who knows). Anyways, it was kinda lame except the free drinks for the first hour. So we drank as much as possible then resumed the party at the Liar's club. Now some of the people who were at J's party had heard of the naked man from my birthday, yet did not believe us. But once again, he was there shakin all he had (which wasn't a whole lot, Justyna still contends he's a grower). So, first the people who didn't believe us were amazed. Then, as a said in one of my previous entries, I decided to actually look up. So the guy had kinda buzzed greyish hair and was probably not much taller than me, most likely somewhere between 5'9" and 5'11". So besides naked man, we got good and drunk. I lost an earring and bracelet. Jim kept getting harrassed by a guy who said he looked like Paul Reubens, Dave got laid (yeah Dave!!! - as he was crossing the street with his lady we were pumping our fists in the air yelling "Go Dave") and Jeanne was getting hit on by two guys at once. I ended up going back to Josh and Justyna's place where we endulged in white castles then passed out.

The next day, I woke up with a ragin hangover and prayed at the alter of the porcelain god. We rented Shaun of the Dead which Justyna loved like I knew she would and we got Harolds Chicken. Now I haven't had Harold's Chicken since it closed in uptown, I love that stuff, but there must be some weird hallucenagenics in that chicken because I had the most bizarre and vivid dreams that night. I found out that Josh did too. That's some crazy ass crap.

Anyways, I spent the rest of the weekend recovering. I'm gettin old.
