Crickets
It seems that when they put you on an extended work schedule, you get used to it.
I've been getting home one, two, sometimes three hours late almost every workday for three weeks now, and it doesn't seem so trying anymore. Somehow I still manage to get to the grocery store, fix food for myself, and put on clean clothes every day.
Summer's slipping away into fall, and a little part of me thinks, damn, I hate to miss that, while the rest of me attends the endless meetings and does the software testing and rewrites training documents and generally puts her nose to the grindstone.
It's about 9:30 and I'm home, a late dinner settling in my stomach, I just watched Kung Fu Hustle at the recommendation of![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
owzers (good flick, pretty odd), and now the TV is silent and the living room is dark, and all I can hear is crickets outside in the late-summer night air.
We hit 54 percent of goal today at 56 percent of our scheduled time. We might make our deadline, and if we don't, it won't be because I didn't spend enough time at the office.

i love it when they do the dance at the beginning (i'm assuming that's the kung fu hustle)... and pretty much everything crazy and weird about the movie.
i've been wanting to watch "shaolin soccer" which is by (i think) the same director and looks to be just as quirky.

Stephen Chow is responsible for Shaolin Soccer too--which also looks good.
