Well it’s Sunday and I have to go back to fucking work tomorrow. What makes it even shittier is tomorrow is my first day working out in the morning. I’ll be getting up at 5am to knock out a 2 mile run on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Friday’s. The other days will be light upper body.

Hope everyone had a good T-Giving and shit. I went to my sisters in laws. A bunch of people came over and we drank crazy amounts of beer. We ate some turkey out of paper plates, ghetto style. Then my dumb ass enjoyed a whole bottle of wine and one more beer. At that time I felt dizzy as fuck. I ended up going to the bathroom twice, but both were false gag alarms. I found Kim and said “I’m ready to go”. She said we’ll leave in a little bit. I sat on the floor and stared at the carpet for 10 minutes and insisted that we leave. The whole ride back to my mom in laws house I laid in the passenger seat. Once we got back, I lied down on the bed. About 15 minutes after, I ran to the bathroom and tossed my thanksgiving turkey twice! I washed my face and mouth out and noticed it was 9:30pm. That was all she wrote.

Don’t ever ever ever ever ever ever drink wine after a days worth of drinking shitty beer. I probably won’t be drinking for awhile. Atleast, 5 days anyways.

Earlier this week I decided to do a little packet sniffing because we’ve been having some bandwidth issues. I spliced into the network with an old hub, between our router and gateway. I fired up ethereal on my laptop and started capturing packets. As I suspected, there were quite a few people streaming audio and video. There was also someone going buck wicked on some porn action too. Kinda funny, I started capturing at around 2pm and at 3pm is the companies designated break time. At 3pm they took a break and then picked up with their porn action when break was over. I let my manager know what the deal is and we put out a memo to all the users restating that that shit ain’t cool. I didn’t single out anyone but they know who they are. Someone from management came to me and admitted that they had been to said sites in the past. I told them it wasn’t them that I logged. Good thing about it is now I have a 1up on management.

I plan on doing some more packet sniffing from time to time as this is the only warning they will get.

Moral of the story is plead the fizifth.

Well I guess I’m going to get started on the MCSE exams. I figured I would start out with the Security+ exam that way I can kill 2 birds with one stone or some shit. I think I should be able to just go in and take the Sec+ straight up without much studying.

In other news, I have to go out to one of the field sites at work to check the versions of software the systems are running on. I already know what versions they are running on, but the retards in management don’t believe me. I guess I’ll just have to confirm that they are idiots. Why is it people that have nothing to do with computers or IT in general think they know everything about computers? I hate those son of a biznitches. Hopefully I won’t have to deal with them in this new contract. I pretty much made up my mind that either they’re leaving or I am. I can’t stand this po-dunk redneck town anyways. This will give me a chance to get the fuck out of this place. I don’t know why I even came up here.

Work sucks big fucking donkey balls. Working in IT sucks when your bosses think your job is to sit around doing spreadsheets all damn day. I spend more time dealing with spare hardware parts and spreadsheets than anything else. Meanwhile, administrative assistants sit on there ass, stuffing donuts down their throats all day. I’m supposed to be “the software guy”. Good thing is the contract is over so hopefully I’ll be able to jump over to a decent company and do my “real” job.

On a better note, Cisco finally got back with me today so my CCNA shit should be squared away. Now I just have to study up for the CCNP. I’m hoping to take that biznitch next spring.
