Wombat Mobile I should be coding or sleeping instead of this...

Well, it's been a really long time, but I broke down and ate at Burger King today. I've blogged about my aversion to Burger King previously.

It was a tough call, I was really hungry and my only choices near the BART station were Burger King and Subway. Is it possible that Jared creeps me out more than the new Burger King?

Well, this week was the beginning of my part-time Lab/part-time startup schedule. Tuesdays I plan on going up to the Lab since I have a regularly scheduled meeting. Here's how my day went:

• 10 minute drive from the house to BART
• 5 minute wait for the train
• 1 hour ride up to Berkeley
• walk to my building in downtown Berkeley and notice that everyone is milling about in the lobby and on the sidewalk in a bizarre way that resembles old video game characters that get stuck in a confined space and just bounce back and forth between walls. It turns out that a generator blew up and they had to evacuate the building
• My meeting isn't for a while, but it's up the hill with the rest of the lab, so I go wait for a Lab bus for 10 minutes
• 15 minute bus ride up the hill, including transfer from external(off-site) bus to internal bus
• 30 minutes working on laptop on picnic bench
• 1 hour meeting
• 5 minute wait for bus back down the hill
• 10 minute bus ride back to office
• It turns out the power is back on, but they don't seem confident about it, so everyone went home
• 10 minute wait for BART
• 1 hr train ride
• 10 minute drive from station to home

What a waste of time. Granted I had my personal laptop with me, but I'm trying to avoid using it in situations that could aggravate my wrist/shoulder problems.
