Mission Complete

It was 9:17 this morning on my atomic clock when I saw and heard confirmation of "wheels stop" on Discovery at Kennedy Space Center. They traveled 5.4 million miles, repaired the heat shield using a 50' boom, and returned the space station's crew to a full complement.

I wish I was there. That stuff sounds like so much fun, it might not seem like so much work (though it is a full ton of it). I currently have a job that isn't very challenging; the only exception to that is finding something to do when there's no training. That can prove taxing; which is why I'm home this morning watching the space shuttle land on NASA TV via Akamai/Yahoo:



I think now I'll work on some more work-related stuff here, where it is comfortable and more user-friendly.
