Today is a sad day.
After lunch I saw the document in my inbox I've been dreading for months: The requisition letter for my Blackberry.
I've been avoiding it as long as I possibly could, I suppose. As much as I love gadgets like this, the thought of being tied to work any more than I already am was the last thing I wanted. I've often teased people I know who have them attached to their hips all the time, constantly buzzing and checking email. My goal for 2007 was to increase my free time. Oh, well.
I will try to be optimistic about this. One good thing is I'll be able to check email while not at the computer, which is the only reason I drag my laptop home at times. And since we have a team in India that I need to be in touch with, it will help facilitate communication. And at least now I have a way to keep in touch if I'm out of the country. If I can just find a version of Galaga that runs on it then I'm set.
