Candy.

Got to work to no computer, no desk and no actual ability for me to earn my keep. Instead of being mightily productive I spent the day shadowing my immediate boss, gleaning as much information from him as humanly possible under the circumstances of watching someone else work on their computer. Aye, a fine and productive day it was. <--insert mighty sarcasm here

As the day passed I also watched him devour one rocket candy pack after another like the crack candy* that they are. Trying not to be outdone and having nothing much else to do, I attempted to keep pace with his mad sugar popping skills. Coupled with the two 16oz cups of coffee downed in the late after noon in an attempt to stay mostly coherent, I can safely predict that the precarious sugar rush that I have ridden all afternoon shall come to a sudden anti-climatic downer in a minute or two. If you need me I’ll be the squidgy unmoving lump on the rug.

*I know I have read this somewhere else. The term stuck. If it is yours please leave a link.
