*whew* it's friday! i finally finished my IP isolation stuff, which took me a month to do since the day i was assigned to it. i'm not proud that it took so long, and i admit that i wasn't working to my full capacity in the previous weeks, but i definitely worked hard on it this week. i just hope it works, and i don't have to revisit this shit again.
i get sad when i think of the fact that some things won't be with me forever. i'm talking about things like my car, my watch, my computer. i love those possessions, but i know that someday, my car will break down, my (yellow! i love yellow) watch won't work anymore, etc. things don't last forever, i guess, and that makes me sad.
re: the medicine i ordered. yeah, i'm sure that they got shipped, because i got a UPS tracking number and tracked it all the way to my house. i can't explain what happened; is someone evil enough to steal what's outside my front porch? do people do that? hrmph. anyways, i ordered it again today, and made sure it will get shipped to my company. that had BETTER work.
i bummed that i sold my shares of akamai (AKAM) too soon. i sold it when it doubled, which was nice, and i thought it had hit a relative peak. but in the last two months since i sold it, it has gone up an extra $10. i had 300 shares of it, so that would have translated to an extra $3000 of profit! *punches himself*
i am dreading doing my taxes next year. i have a lot of profits from my ESPP which weren't taxed, so i'll wind up owing a ton of money. last year was the first year that owed (around $2000), but next year will be way worse.
i wonder if i should get a financial advisor. you know, you give them money and they take care of your investments. have any of you people out there done this? how has it worked out for you?
i am sort of nervous about watching movies now. like i said, my tics are so violent that sometimes my glasses fly off my face. it happened last week at _the protector_, and i spent a good few minutes with my mini-flashlight searching for them. thank god that no one was sitting in our row, or else it would have been a huge problem, searching under people's feet and stuff.
ok, time to wrap this up, and i'm going home soon. have a STUPENDOUS weekend folks!
