Ah, and now it's that point of the day where the call volume at work convulses and dies, and I have time to reflect about how I wish I had a beer in my hand.

The impending weekend is especially welcome as I've been a little out of it all day today. I stood in the elevator in the parking garage today for a full minute before I realized I wasn't moving. The doors opened again and my manager stepped in. She looked at me askance while I dumbly stared back.

"Forgot to select a floor?" she asked.

"Yep," I said.

She nodded. "It happens."

Yeah, not my finest moment.

The highlight of my day, though, was the guy striking a very heroic pose -- shoulders proudly squared, hands on hips -- as he used the restroom. Like seeing Superman piss into a urinal. It would have been weird had it not been so funny.

So yeah. As the kids are wont to say these days, "Thank Cthulhu it's Friday."
