Hec has to learn to mouse over his own links
Have I not explained to you about the glare in my umbrella farm of cubicles?
I can barely see the pointer much less read the mouseover links.

The race for recent Congressman Vito Fossella's seat is now getting a new addition--Frank Powers, Jr. will be running as a Libertarian against his GOP father, Frank Powers, Sr. [link]
The Staten Island Advance reports that the younger Powers, age 47, announced he is running as a Libertarian in order to stop his father from getting elected and being able to help further Republican policies. "I'm not going to say that my dad treated me bad when I was a kid," Fran Powers said. "I know his policies. I'm running against someone I know."
Powers Sr., needless to say, is taken aback by this development. "I've tried very hard for many years to help my son," he said in a statement. "Unfortunately, he's rejected everyone's help to live a healthy lifestyle."

So I'm at that point when I realize this thing that sort of should be in today will not get done unless I stay late. Which I could do and get it done, but I sort promised myself that I. Would. Stop. That.
My boss has been out all week and so naturally I have still accomplished way more than normal.
So, do I do as much as I can on this one thing and leave the rest for Monday, or spend my remaining time cleaning up picky little details that will add to my what-I-got-done-while-you-were-gone list?

Leave it for Monday unless it will nag at you all weekend and ruin your Monday when you come in to face it. Cause that shit sucks.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I like knowing what I am going to do first thing of a new week - If I don't know , I can wander around aimlessly fir the first hour- and I don't have the time to waste.

I think my apathy has already made my decision for me. I'm going to clean up details, which will be much more pleasing to my compulsive mind, and start fresh on this thing on Monday. It helps that it is a project that only got put on me because my boss is so behind. So missing any soft deadline is more her issue than mine.
