Journal hummassa's Journal: Things are good.

Today is set to be a boring day. It's 8 am and I'm at the office, the work day goes only till noon. Then, I'll hop into a bus (left the car at home) and today is soccer day :-) Brasil vs. Japan. Not really exciting, but...
Oh, yes, and I'm alone at the office. The Powers that Be decided that people could take either today or last Thursday off... I opted for coming today, and apparently I was the only one (of a development crew of 15). It's kind of funny. And silent. Maybe I should slay them all. The voices told me to. :-) Yes, I'm kidding.
Left baby girl awake, boy asleep, with their Mom. I have to arrive at home as early as possible. Maternity leave is killing me. I like it best when she has all workly things to worry about.
Interestingly enough, I'm reading Luis Fernando Veríssimo's "O Jardim do Diabo" (The Devil's Garden -- a reference to the "an idle mind is the Devil's garden" phrase -- I don't know exactly how does this go in English), and I really think she is hagin too much "idle mind time".
In the work thing, I have a nice perspective for doing the Institutional Contacts work but I'm still without a lot of energy. Let's see what I can do next week -- If Brasil wins today, next week is without Monday, I'll drink my ass off and I'll arrive to work Tuesday with a nice hangover without even getting really drunk. This have happened a lot, and I'm afraid to ask my doctor (or look in the Intarwebs thing) if my medicine [bupropion] reacts in any way with CH3CH2OH -- or with my liver. Hangover without buzz really sucks. And it will ruin my work week.
I just went to DrSteve (closed the tab, so I won't link) and people reported blackouts while mixing >2 doses of booze and bupropion. Too bad. I will most certainly take more than two today -- maybe I'll skip the pills. DrSteve flashed the magic scary words "Grand Mal Seizure possibly resulting in death", and I'm not on to find out if he's right. At least not before I slay all my workmates :-) Bwhhyhwhwhwhwaaaah evil laugh.
