sweater n' sweatshop monday

outside the office of one of the creative directors hangs a tattered old brown sweater with the sleeves cut off. on his door scotch-taped is a printout of an image of mr roger. next to it some 14 images of sweaters—all vying to be voted as the friendly neighborhood CD's next sweater for the next decades to come. the creatives are up to no good once again. creating a nice friendly atmosphere to kick off the week ahead. and anyone seeing that christmas sweater and those photoshopped images will definitely die laughing—a great way to start the workweek. not that there's much work getting done with all the side pranks and projects that are keeping everyone busy.

and as for me, my hallmark card sweatshop duties are almost done. managed to finish two over the afternoon—one for an ultra-belated birthday and another for a bachelor party with an officemate's head photoshopped over the hefner's. tomorrow, some afternoon partying is on the calendar. we celebrate all the belated birthdays with a li'l office party where all the cards ive been sweating on finally get given to their rightful owners. after that, we head straight to gin lane for an after-party party and some fine boozing. sweeet. hopefully it won't break the bank though coz otherwise ill be punked for that november trip to the philippines. but no worries. i'll make sure to drink moderately but party heartily.

enjoyed some laps of swimming after work. great feeling obviously coz its just you, your mind and the water. (and the occasional annoying person who insists on swimming on your lane. feck.) great way to get the heartrate up obviously without breaking a sweat. (hmm, i wonder if not being able to sweat's the reason why the urge to pee is high when swimming. oops. too much information... but then, i wonder what happens if one goes swimming after a night of drinking. that must be a double whammy then.)
