Late Night Hunger Pains- Office Style


It's been a long day at the office, and sadly, there is no end in sight.

The words on my computer screen  have started to melt into one another, rendering the 74 page sell-side report on semiconductors illegible (though frankly more interesting). At this point, I realize I need something to eat.

A takeout slice of cheese, a few drops of Dave's, and I'm now good to go for a couple more hours!

Happy New Years

I woke up alone on Jan 1st, 2011 with a dry mouth and a raging headache. I then proceeded to go skiing at Vail in subzero temperatures, further exacerbating the hangover.

I woke up on Jan 1st, 2012 with a mild thirst and a minor headache. I then proceeded to go skiing at Aspen in beautiful sun, completely removing any signs of the hangover.

Despite its slow start, 2011 ended up being a pretty good year. And considering how much better my New Years Day was this year, I'm planning on '12 being even better! Nine days in, and I've already made progress (y/y) vs the 2011 run-rate when it comes to important things (I now own a Slanket, snagged a raise at the office, etc). Fingers crossed things continue on this trajectory.

Sadly, my toes remain (albeit slightly closer!) out of reach and my scoville consumption abilities have plateaued. In honor of the longstanding tradition of  "running it back", I will add A) and B) back to my resolution list. Hopefully I can make better progress this year. 

All signs point to the below scenario occurring however:
