i read an article yesterday about how working many long hours for a long period of time will lead to heart disease. granted, they were talking about men in the article, but i think this also applies to women. But here's their advice:

'Their advice: Restrict working hours to 40 or less a week. If working extended periods of overtime, make sure you get sufficient sleep and have at least two days of rest a month.' - MSN Article "Workaholics Court Early Heart Attack"

well, that does it for me. i am a classic candidate for a heart attack. i've worked extended periods of overtime, and have not gotten sufficient sleep...oh wait, maybe i'm not qualified for a heart attack..i mean, i did get 2 days off last month..that's enough right?...riiiiiggggghhhht.

and since there are mostly guys working on this project, i feel for them...i mean, who wants an early heart attack? or have heart disease? someone should forward this article to our partner. better yet, to our client. so they can see what their stupidness is costing us. okok, i know some of it is our fault...but if they wouldn't be so difficult and actually have a clear vision of what they wanted, then maybe this thing can actually go live.

i wonder what i should have for lunch today. everyone else just left, and now they're doing a build, so now i don't have much to do. just catch up on email. i should have gone with them. oh well...i'll find something here to eat. probably go to the deli and get something quick to eat. i keep forgetting to pack something from home. but i always seem to be in a rush to leave...i really need to start getting up earlier. i've been such a slacker, coming in at 10AM and even later. but who could have guessed there'd be traffic at 930AM? i swear, chicago is getting just as bad as LA when it comes to traffic.

k, gotta get something to eat, so i can get more work done when the site comes back up....
