I just finished up my antibiotics today – I’m hoping that the trend of getting better stays the course. Still a bit of a cough this morning, but I’m feeling pretty good.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
I fought through the cough this past week to get my laps in at the pool – and did 45 yesterday. The last ten involved coughing underwater, but I avoided drowning – which is always a good goal. So, 90 laps for the week and back on track.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Earlier this week I helped run a series of usability tests on part of our website for work. It went pretty well and I think we got some good information, but it took a lot out of me.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I also did my taxes. Which I despise. I don’t know that anyone really enjoys doing their taxes, but I’ve taken it to a new level of despising. I’m getting some money back on federal and from the state – and I didn’t owe the city anything. So, it’s over and done for the year – just wish it wasn’t always so complicated.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In other not-terribly-awesome news… I’ve decided to boycott chik-fil-a. I found out that – despite the tasty food and disturbingly polite and friendly service – they are kinda evil. Or rather, their corporate office funds other folks that are evil. I guess it’s a bit like BP – though in their case they are pretending to admit they are wrong and then still being amazingly evil and greedy. I can respect that. Chik-fil-a thinks they are doing the right thing and that is a bit more disturbing. I’m considering writing an email to their corporate office, but seems a little futile.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Went and saw Red Riding Hood last night. Pretty good, nice twist at the end – though it did drag on a bit. <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I’ve been playing Overlord for a while now on the PS3. I’ve played this before and didn’t make a lot of progress, but this time around I’ve got some new tactics and it’s a lot more fun. <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
And finally, I’m thinking about doing a little work today. I’ve got a survey to build that looked like a bit of fun – or I may work some more on my new desk for home. <\/div>\n
