Office Drone Hive [Fantastic Fridays]

[Darkshaunz]

Happy Friday hive,

Sadly not much to report here, I am taking a half day from work due to a bad case of stomach cramps.

It's not food poisoning or anything, just overall stomach cramps and me not being able to sleep till 2 am fighting the pain. It sucks even more when you don't know the cause.

I looked online and they said it might be Gastric Spasms, or Mild Stomach Flu - neither of which is anything fantastic to have on the best day of the week,

Dr. Spoon, is it true that poorly made/unfinished UMSes can cure stomach cramps instantly?

(Seriously though, this is actually pretty painful).

Ohaiyo gozaimasu Twelve jin!
Ju ji han des. And I'm eating cake and having a cup of tea.

Today got off to a briefly productive start, but now I'm waiting to hear back from an editor about wtf he's done with the heading hierarchy in a book before I can do any more on it. I've got some testing to do for our new publishing database system thing, but it's not really Friday fun. I will be following a policy of not answering the phone for any unidentified numbers, as yesterday I got called by our Indian typesetter guy, who wanted to talk about the weekend, and sport and movies, before getting on to complaining about why he couldn't actually send something on the date he'd said he would, because after he said he would, the 'team' told him there were lots of corrections! I'd kind of expected he would have checked with 'the team' before he agreed to the due date (this is for superdouche book, otherwise it wouldn't matter, but I'd already gone back to superdouche saying when they're receive it).

In sugoi(!) news, the academic dept made budget for the month, second month running, and we're now on budget for the fytd (our financial year starts in May). This may not sound like much, but the dept has not made year budget in at least 10 years, so it's kind of exciting that it might happen this year, especially as the other publishing departments haven't made budget so far this fin year.

@Shaunz: Terrible news, having to stay home playing SC2 all day instead of pwning publisher must be terrible.
@Hekate: Most of that went over my head but good news is always great Does making the budget mean another bonus?

Apple finally came through with accepting our developer program so now I have put my sexy and shiny app on my iPhone for real testing and can show the world. Watch our world.. it's coming soon!

shaunz, make sure it's actually your stomach and not like something more important that might need to be removed or something. fairly common procedure.

Just got back from a steak sandwich with the works and beer at the local pub. I now weigh 6kg more than before I left for lunch.

Holy shit. So delicious but so so filling. I'm amazed I made it up the hill.

[hekate]

fairly common procedure.

What, getting random internal organs removed?

You could profit big time from random internal organ removal.

Yeah, made sure it wasn't my appendix.

It it were, I'd be in a Hospital right now.

[Ralphie]

I will sell someone my appendix for 10 grand. Who wants it.

[Hunterbob]

Alright! Friday is finished and the weekend is here. Pretty busy day with some good and some mundane tasks. Not a bad end to the week. Hope everyone's is awesome!
