A little bit of this, etc.

I'm a little bitter that I had to come in on Friday, particularly since I wasn't really needed. It's just frustrating. Though I did spend some quality time divying up a coworker's set of Nationals season tickets.

In baseball news, I'm in the middle of the pack of my fantasy league. I have pretty good offense, but my pitching sucks. I'm not sure what to do about it, though. I've won both of my matchups so far, but not by much.

When I was working out last week, my CD player was having some problems. I don't know whether it was just that the batteries were dying, or whether the CD player itself is busted. I'm kind of disturbed, because I cannot deal with 45 minutes of exercising with no sound but my own breathing. Particularly when I'm on the elliptical and can't read. When I'm on the bike, it's not too bad. We'll have to see what happens tonight. If it's the CD player, I'm tempted to use the money my dad gave me for editing a paper he wrote to buy an iPod shuffle. Or maybe a Mini, though that would cost me more than that check. I'll have to see what happens tonight, then contemplate from there. I really should just fork that money over to Citibank, but...iPod! Pretty!

We're coming into the pre-Conference home stretch at work, but we have some books that aren't going to make it. We still need them out quickly, so unfortunately it doesn't look like the couple weeks before Conference are going to be as empty as they usually are. I was going to use that time to clean out my files, dammit! The stacks of paper are taking over.

Current song in my head:
"New York, New York" from On the Town

ETA: It looks like my batteries were just dying, which is a relief. Though now I have to buy batteries. Yes, they're cheaper than an iPod, but also less fun.
