I do this by using the power of Microsoft Word. No one suspects anything as long as you are typing into a Word document. Write your blog posts in Word, save them to memory sticks, and post them when you get home. Or open up an Outlook email and write them there. If someone walks by, you are obviously not on the Internet - you are being productive in Outlook. Sometime when we're face-to-face, I can talk to you about it from a management perspective. What has likely happened is that someone has complained about your internet usage. I'm assuming you're keeping everything else on the up and up, meeting your deadlines, producing quality work, etc. while AT THE SAME TIME being master of all things blogerifical. Most people can't understand that way of living, get jealous, and, since they don't have blogs of their own to complain about you on, complain about you in the office. It is a sad state of affairs, office-life. But one rich with stories and blogworthy material. -RT Here is a blog entry idea: Give practical lessons to people on how to play on the internet at work without actually getting on the internet.

We'll all still be here, hanging out and drinking grape soda. They’re some heavy weights you have to move around your house, take your time and make the best decision for you and those you love.

Those thoughts try to creep back in, but I don't let them. You got to let it go. Keep your chin up Alex.

As a guy doing a lot of CAD work, there's very little excuse for me to be doing something in Word. People usually can tell when I'm writing something personal. As far as getting my shit did - I never missed deadlines, but I put a burden on teammates. Crump, Magnus, and Lynch - Thanks. I love all the lovin'. Winrit - Thanks. I'll keep that in mind the next time I want to bash heads. Like I said, your package really helped yesterday. Robert - Thanks.
