first day on the jarb you find:

While heading to Panera bread in the backseat of my new coworkers car, surrounded by countless Simply Red cds, I heard the song on the radio that couldn't have acted on me more in an 80's y6acht rock sense.

I must have relayed 20 times today to all the nice people who asked about my first day-- routine is the key to all my comments. My previous routine was chaos, the consistent routine of drama. now 8 am and conversations about weight watchers. the only conversations I had before were on im about photos, flickr, css, or the occassional ball $having debate.

I am looking forward to sleep right now. Thats what I will think about tomorrow should I have another Bruce Hornsby moment, or even just a memory of that keyboard flourish.

I'm sure you could bring up the topic of ball $having at your new workplace.

I meant to add my two cents on the whole ball $having debate a few months back, but I think I'm a little late to the whole ball $having debate party.

Perhaps another time.

I got somethin to say said...

It always fascinates me how much attention it always brings when its mentioned.

I get the feeling guys don't talk about this amongst themselves.

So far as the dollar bills go-- maybe in the "how to" video, but I think thats as far as the money will take you.

In my work place, at least, we do. Not that I ever wanted to know, but I know which ones do and don't $have.
